Garrett was following the wires around the train--for all the good it was really doing him--whenever he came across the most bizarre sight he had ever seen. There was a person inside the wall.
The thief blinked once to look at the world in regular vision and confirmed there was no one in front of him, just the ICP terminal and the wall it sat against. He blinked again to use his Focus ability, white-washing the world into an odd vision of glowing keypoints, and saw the person within the wall. That was most definitely not normal.
Garrett didn't have time to wonder whether it was a shade or a ghost or some other species with an ability to go through walls before the young girl popped out, startling him, and he backpedaled into the far wall. For a moment he sat there and if she cared to notice his feet weren't actually on the ground but instead glued to the wall along with his fingertips as if he were about to crawl up it Spider-Man style. Spoiler alert: he almost had.
He refrained though and tilted his head at her. "I wasn't... I should have expected that actually," he said in response to her apology. What he spoke was reminiscent of a heavily accented English equivalent of some sort. It was...probably understandable after a bit of inner translating past the accent? Probably.
[[How do you feel about spiders? Garret is a humanoid arachne. I can refrain from descriptions if you prefer though. Let me know? :3]]
