Ebonee had been perfectly happy going through her stuff on her own, seeing as she hadn't seen Elias yet. She was so used to the sounds of crowds and the feeling of someone having her back that when the voice came from behind her, she jumped, not having expected anyone to notice her sitting in the shade and out of the way. It only took a second, but once she recovered she tensed, hunching her shoulders forward to provide more cover for her obviously stolen goods.
She'd been in the middle of looking through some guy's wallet for Genie's sake!
She frowned, tilting her head back so she could somewhat see the person who'd snuck up on her. "Can I help you?" she grumbled, quickly using her limited sorcery abilities to move objects to slowly shift the items she'd removed her pockets into a better hiding spot. The last thing she needed was some goody goody getting her kicked out on her first day.
Once the wallet she'd stolen was closed, she lifted her head so it was upright and she wasn't looking at the boy upside down. She twisted her upper body so she could face him properly, shifting her legs into more of a side sitting position so she wasn't contorting herself into an uncomfortable pretzel. Sure she was flexible but that didn't mean she wanted to test how far she could go and how long she could last.
"Not that it's any of your business, seeing as I don't know you, but I was looking for something." she lied calmly, used to having to get out of tricky situations after being caught. In another life, Ebonee was sure she'd be disgusted at how easy the lies came to her, but she lived in reality, and her reality was that she had to steal and lie for a living. She'd grown to accept it long ago.
Due to her position, one of her hands was still hidden behind her leg and she moved a watch she'd nabbed into her grip and held up the contraband proudly. "As you can see, I found it. Anything else I can help you with, Mr. Nosy?"
. . . the thief"
