Marcus stifled a sense of frustration as the man seemed to shake off his weave. He knew it was petty. The man might be bending but he was not broken. Reading between the lines of his jacket, interrogation resistance was likely part of his training. Add his Force abilities and the will it required, well it was only expected.
Time. It would just take time. He relaxed and leaned back, giving the man space and leave to eat ravenously. To his question, "I want you to be someone we can rely on, Ryker. Simple as that. As to whether that happens...." he trailed off.
He stood slowly. "Enjoy your meal Ryker. I will visit again."
On his way out, he left instructions with the guard. "Two days, give him food- not prison swill, mind- and plenty of it.. And let him sleep. Then..." he paused, unable to help to small smile that formed on his face. Then.. start it over again. No sleep. Little food. Solitary. Keep it up until I come again."
Let him marinate. Marcus had other things do occupy him in the meantime.
