Oscar Pine bowed to the merchant woman respectfully and gave her his Lien.



Merchant:"Oh young man, there's no need..."



Oscar Pine:"Hey, it's not up for debate ma'am, go get a good meal, please...it's the least i can do. Thank you for the directions-"



"How amusing...or should I say impressive..." came a voice.



Oscar turned to see a tall man in a trench coat with a distinguished mustached, and eyes he could only compare to....a crocodile, laying in wait.



"...For a farm boy..." he continued. "That's exactly how the Meisters in Vale would bow."



Oscar didn't allow the shock or uncomfortableness to register on his face, but all the same reached out like mad for Ozpin in the back of his mind like feeling under your pillow for a knife when you hear an intruder. "Wouldn't know....never been." he said simply in reply.



Ozpin answered him back without hesitation, the feeling he got was validation at his own reaction:"Be on your guard, this man is dangerous..." Ozpin murmured.



How many dangerous men from Ozpin's past was he going to bump into?



"Your new enough to Haven...." the man said, politely, yet like he was appraising a new walking stick, "All the same there's something uncharacteristically familiar about you..."



Oscar remained resolute:"Just got one of those faces I guess." He wasn't being rude either, but his eyes were clearly suggesting he did not want to talk to him as he was a boy and this man was a stranger. All the same his face didn't suggest fear...but in fact defiance that he wouldn't be intimidated by his imposing air. Whatever this man was about, he wasn't interested.



Oscar thought to Ozpin:"What do we do? Do we run, do i tell him to get lost...?"



"No..." Ozpin said, "Either of those things could set him off or onto us...just back out of the conversation naturally....he's onto something but he hasn't guessed our connection yet....although I certainly wouldn't put it past HIM..."



More people started to notice Oscar's uncomfortable face, while talking to the adult and so did Watts notice them.



"Well i certainly advise you to be careful, boy, this is as treacherous a city as it is beautiful and, also smaller than you'd think. Perhaps we'll cross paths again..." Doctor Watts closed.



Ozpin frowned within Oscar "Not this time, you'll not cause chaos a second time...Doctor Watts...."



Oscar just backed away with a two fingered wave:"Sure..." he said.
