oh dear

The scene itself isn't much; nothing more than a quick robbery, really. It stings at him a little not to stop and investigate that weird smoke cloud, but that isn't his role. After taking mental note of the direction the guys took, he continues on his way as if he hadn't seen a thing. It'll be alright. He'll just let Iman know...

...wait. Is that...?

As predicted, he lifts his head in alarm, chest tightening at the sound of El Ocaso approaching from far too close. But before he can so much as try to run, Ocaso speaks, and the tension drains out of him as he instead stops in his tracks. Oh. This isn't so bad. Things actually seem just fine now! Why he was getting so worked up? "Okay, sounds good," he says, turning and flashing Ocaso an agreeable smile, as if they were friends meeting on the street. Then he drops his gaze to his phone again, obediently erasing the message he'd been writing and sending out another in its place:

Ocaso's here. I could use some help.

It's a perfectly reasonable thing to do. Ocaso's right - it's a good plan.
