[Ooh, it's always fun when people recognize her! :D ngl having a little cognitive dissonance seeing Louis' face on a different character.]
It's amazing how much a person can think in such a short span. It's the politeness that gets her attention. Such a rare thing for a Manhattan girl like her (even in a world with Captain America there to remind everyone about their fucking language.) When Ver turns she looks the newcomer over quickly, taking in a number of details. Pertinent ones, to her thinking: the blood, the former quality of his clothes, and the cut thereof. It was bad enough when people showed up by falling out of the sky. Now they're showing up dead. It's not a great progression and it's starting to worry her.
For her part, Verity is as she is meant to be: brightly-colored and observing from a distance. Her hair is halfway restrained with braids and most of her tattoos are covered by the sleeves of her sweater. She smiles a little more easily these days, but the frown lines are still there. But her looks are just as sharp, and it's safe to assume the remarks will be too.
The newcomer's requests are reasonable and he seems calm. That's a good place to start. Still, all that blood... "Er, are you hurt? That might be the place to start."
