It doesn't make sense that anyone would give a shit about two people talking on a busy street, in a busy town, in the middle of the day. Protagonist paranoia can only go so far.
@Jorelm protagonist paranoia, and a noisy beastperson, lead to a real mess, because the longer he sits there quietly, looking around at other people, the more people will notice something's going on. Doesn't help that Snow is growing, ever so slightly, the longer Arito let's his paranoia get to him.

The damn beasts shouldn't be allowed to touch the clothes of such a fine young man, they should all be collared and sent out of the sight of the respectable folk.
