[ Eclipse hadn't been taking the news about Thessia well; given the number of asari in their ranks, stupid weird internal drama that Marco really didn't want to care about happened. Long story short, he's stuck doing a lot more dirty work for the gang than he really thought he'd signed up for.
There was a job gone wrong, and though the standard operating procedure was cut your losses and disappear, Marco didn't want to leave his partner bleeding out in the streets. They weren't far from Mordin's clinic, which he's hoping is a safe place to dump his injured partner before running off. Maybe no one will even recognize him so long as he keeps his helmet on. It's a pain in the ass to drag the unconscious mercenary along, since he's a man about five times Marco's size, but sheer stubbornness and adrenaline got him within spitting distance of the door.
Of course, nothing ever works out perfectly in Marco's world, and it's about then that a pair of Talons decide that going to kick someone while they're down is totally cool. Especially when it's a couple of unprepared-looking mercs in full Eclipse armor.
As soon as Marco spots them approaching, he drops his partner and backs up towards the door, hands up in the universal gesture of 'dear god please don't fucking shoot me'. ]
