Thank you, BlissCloudz. You've provided the perfect springboard with which I can say something that's been on my mind since Dance Dance Infiltration: at the end of DDI, when Cinder starts dancing w/ Merc, my 1st thought was "Oh dude, they're totally boning".

Crack theory: Merc is obviously on Cinder's little infiltration squad b/c he's around the right age to blend in as well as his skills that she needs for the op. But maybe she also keeps him on for sex. Purely casual, no-emotional-strings-attached, just-for-fun-and-relieving-the-stress-from-operating-undercover-in-enemy-territory sex. Who knows? Maybe he's bigger than Roman. Maybe a 9-inch dildo w/ 7 different vibration settings just doesn't quite do it for her on long-duration infiltration ops. Maybe she offered him such an arrangement b/c it was cheaper than the pay he was originally asking for. Or maybe I'm just insane.

Apologies for the tangent; BlissCloudz gave me a springboard and I had to take it.
