Here's an excerpt from my theory regarding Mercury and his dad:

Mercury lost his legs not long before Cinder showed up due to enemies of his father attacking Marcus, and Mercury got caught in the crossfire. This means his legs are still healing from having to be replaced, which explain the bandages above his knees when Cinder meets him.
