Sawyer was kind of amused by the recent chaos, to tell the truth. Granted if any of his stuff had been touched he would have been out for blood but as it was he got to sit back, take it all in, and laugh. It wasn't how he would have done a string of robberies at all, but hell that didn't mean he couldn't admire the thief's work.

At the moment he was leaning against the wall of his shop, smoking a cigarette and people watching. When the kid in the bright orange came hurrying past he almost ignored him, until he caught sight of his face. The con man had never been introduced to Jing, but he'd seen him at that meeting he'd held awhile back to organize a council. Well well, looks like he had found the thief.

"Well hey there Shortround." He called, a good natured smirk crawling across his face. "Didn't think you'd be wantin' to show your face 'round here so soon. Mob right behind you then?"

Jing stopped and turned to regard the man who'd addressed him; he didn't know what name to put to the face, but the distinct drawl he'd heard before over the messengers from time to time.

"Actually," the thief said slyly, "for a lot of big talk there doesn't seem to be anyone planning to step up. Besides... there's only two reasons for thieves to hide after a heist. They're either ashamed or they messed it up. I don't fall into either of those categories."

Sawyer gave him a look that was part amusement, part despair and shook his head, still smirking. Taking another drag from the cigarette he replied, "Forgot to mention the right answer, which was bein' smart. Take the money and run, amigo. Standin' 'round get you caught."

"Yeah," Jing said dryly, "I'll just get myself a horse and ride off into the sunset -- all of 100 feet, until I hit the wall. Good plan, friend."

Sawyer shook his head in mock despair, feeling like he had back when he was teaching all this to Cassidy. The main difference was that Jing clearly new what he was doing and just had different theories about the best way it should be done. Plus there was the way his relationship with Cassidy had ended so on second thought maybe that wasn't a great comparison.

"I mean don't get caught Shortround." He shot back in his lazy drawl. "That's your problem. See, if I'd done it I woulda set it up to make it look like you everythin'. I'd come off real innocent, make sure to be there when they cricified you and waited for the few days it would take to blow over. You weren't that sneaky 'bout it though. Hell, whole damn compound knows it was you."

Jing actually laughed aloud at that. "Of course they know it was me, that's the point. Because I can take anything I want, and no one can stop me. Even if they know I'm coming, even if they hide whatever they want to protect, I can still steal it."
