Any other time, he would have noticed the sounds of footsteps nearby. He would have been able to determine quick-like if the person was friend or foe, and made his move from there. To go on the offensive or defensive. However, being thrown into a place different from where he fell asleep, and grown some in the process had Duo's thoughts and focus occupied.

The woman's voice nearby had actually managed to startle him. He jumped slightly and whipped around, his braid winding around him briefly before falling back into place. His hands immediately went up as though ready to block a punch. Near-violet eyes were wide as he took in the slender woman in clothing that looked NOTHING like what he was use to seeing. Blinking, he lowered his hands slightly.

"Woah, way to sneak up on me. It usually takes more than that to spook me," he said with a small smirk. Under his breath, he mumbled, "The guys would have a good laugh over that one." Duo shook his head and lowered his hands to his hips as he looked out towards the town. "I guess it's pretty obvious, huh. Do I just give off the tourist vibe or something?"
