If he were being good, Vincent would be home in bed in Amesato. Or perhaps camping in the back yard with Fai, or doing something industrious. Instead, he was taking a little stroll around Mizusato, stopping once in a while near the home of his brothers just to stare, as if not quite daring to approach.

He didn't approach, not even after walking by several times. Instead he turned around, made his way back through town, ducking into back alleys and turning his mismatched eyes this way and that, as if on the lookout for some kind of trouble.

His long skirts swished around his boots as he moved, and his steps themselves were wide, confident.

Perhaps, if he had the best kind of luck, he'd find some kind of trouble to keep himself occupied, keep his mind off things like family or red-eyed ninjas who upset his life by appearing in the world.

More likely, he was going to bump into the man sneaking through this same alley.

It didn't take long for Jack to realize he wasn't alone. He paused to size up the new arrival. Someone unfamiliar, but not moving like someone who was up to no good. Looks could be deceiving, though.

"Out for a walk?" he said.

"Same as you, I'd assume?"

Vincent smiles pleasantly, though a hand slips into a coat pocket. It's best to be careful after all, and the weight of the gun is quite comforting.

"I don't believe we've met, have we?"

He's fallen out of the habit of keeping up with every person he's spoken to here, honestly. The twins have him quite distracted.

"I like walking at night," Jack replies, in a tone that implies, Want to make something of it? He doesn't miss the hand moving to the pocket. No one growing up in Satellite lives long without learning when someone is reaching for a weapon. "The name is Jack Atlas. Who are you?"
