Quill chuckles at that - sure Xie is trying to be cutting, but the sarcasm just washes into the team like normal police banter. Certainly no one rises to it.
Lisa turns and smirks at him. "What would you like? True Crime? Nature documentaries?"
Kevin looks thoughtfully at Xie and then leans over and whispers something to Costain. The response is a surprised look, followed by a nod. "We'll see what we can do."
Sure, Kevin could have just offered to get Xie a guitar, but he dooesn't want to make it sound like a Good Cop offering, doesn't want to give Xie the chance to refuse it.
"Live crickets," he tells Quill, the glint in his eyes betraying the joke. "That's what scorpions eat, right?"
