[This feels so much like the way their dynamic had been back home that it's easy to fall into simple reporting. The First and Second need to know the details of any problem and the outcome of each and every mission. It's how they make plans together to decide their next move. There's no room or need for lies or half-truths.
It's a relief, and something for him to slip into like an old and reliable pair of boots. That she lends some acknowledgement to the strangeness of the encounter helps.]
Aye, I don't like it much either. There's more coming down the bend as a result of this, trust. [It feels like a given to him, however nebulous the potential happenings to come are. Not that the sense grants any idea of what to do about any of it yet.]
He gave me information about the cutthroats in the Down. [The accuracy will require some reality testing, but that's easy enough.] There's at least one group called the Rubies. Hostile. Got into a confrontation with them ourselves. The gang activity here sounds like it's on a much denser scale than anything in Ragneux. Warring between groups is common, and territory is always being pushed for.
[On the note of Chris' tone, Aloïs hesitates. He can't deny that his doppelgänger had been helpful. Friendly. It's still twisting him around a bit. Something he would normally trust coming from someone he feels like shouldn't.] He was welcoming. Pointed me at a place in the Down called the Arena where people can seek out fights to keep their skills sharp.
