[ On his part, Gen's being cooperative enough. (Save his as-always atrocious posture and the steady cloud of smoke he's amassing in this poorly-ventilated place.) Slouched in his seat, he listens quietly to Sebastian and Makoto speak, only giving a cant of the head in thought when Sebastian specifies the target's preferred hunting grounds -- not a district he's terribly familiar with, but one Turek has had him stationed in once or twice, he thinks. A pointy ear flicks in thought as he internally visualizes what he can of the area, and when Sebastian looks to him for objections, he gives a half-shrug.

No objections. In fact -- ]


S'simple, then. We get him to be bait.

[ Said around his cigarette as he rudely jerks his head towards Makoto. It certainly sounds like provocation or a slight at first, but he's actually being pragmatic for once. Withdrawing his cigarette, he slowly exhales a lungful of smoke before continuing flatly; this time he addresses them both. ]

If he's looking for easy targets, then the two of us [ himself and Sebastian, he means ] probably won't work. Too tall. Wouldn't look like easy pickings. And I've got these -- [ gesturing up at his canine ears with his cigarette ] -- not that they're dangerous, but they're 'off' from looking normal human.

[ To his meager credit, he refrains from taking the very easy opportunity to point out how puny and weak Makoto looks. Not worth picking that fight right now when he just wants to get this job over with as quickly and smoothly as possible. Instead, he continues, matter-of-fact: ]

I've got ways of keeping myself hidden while following and keeping an eye on things, and [ to Sebastian ] I'm guessing you do, too. So unless we've got something that'll draw him out quicker, might be easiest to bait him out that way.
