Vincent had not expected to see Aerith, of all people, on a restocking run. Not that he'd been in Eltrut recently. His time as of late had been spent at sea, chasing this rumour and that- in the attempt of finding something- anything- partaining to the location of Red and Cloud.
It would have taken a lot for him to wander from today's tasks of resupply and procuring passage to another one of the surrounding leviathans. But this was a lot.
To him, Aerith was more memory than physical presence- but just a glimpse had been enough to have him stop in his tracks. Enough to make him place back the ammunition he'd been in the process of purchasing, and enough to make him follow her path through the markets.
...At a distance, of course. After all, he had no idea if she'd even know who he was.
Eltrut!
