Raine wasn't sure, exactly, how a headless skeleton would have been able to do most of the work in that situation. "Only a little help?" she repeated, lightly, intending it more as a joke than anything else, though she really was curious about how he'd made that work.

She should also probably do something about her habit of accosting interesting people in the street. "It's been a pleasure," she added. "Unless you've your own questions, though, I should probably go. It's getting late."

It had already been evening when she spotted him, after all, and as much as curiosity drove her, most people would only put up with so much relentless questioning. She was reasonably sure she'd be able to find him again.
