Noah looked up, just in time to see Arlo drop from the nearby roof, his boots hitting the cobblestones with a dull thud.
His usual grin was gone, replaced by a grim look that didn't suit him.
His eyes were hidden behind his blindfold, but his head was angled directly at Noah, making sure he knew he held the man's attention.
"You disappeared." Arlo said, voice low, almost strained. "Where did you go? Where have you been?"
Noah stared at him flatly, the corner of his mouth twitching into something close to a smirk.
He'd noticed Arlo following him right from the moment he'd started wandering the city.
It had taken some maneuvering and a quick use of Null Stride, but he'd hidden himself from the person with the eyes that supposedly sees everything.
And now that he was done with his first task of the day, he'd appeared back in society.
"I don't see how that's any of your business," he said.
Arlo took a step towards him, then stopped, as if he'd changed his mind.
