[ Root playfully nudges him aside to take over for him, partly to speed this up but partly so she can respond from close by in a lower intonation. ]
Killing gets attention, and killing like that especially. My boss and I will do everything we can to keep you out of the hands of people who would exploit you, but don't make it harder on us than it has to be, okay?
[ She sounds serious, even as her physical demeanor remains completely casual. Root can pull off the disparity as easily as breathing, utter sincerity exposed like eyes strikingly obvious from behind a mask. ]
Here, take this. [ She pulls back, claiming a few things. ] You go to a changing room and I'll get the accessories.

The former sounds like a challenge for him but he's up for it (especially when he's very serious about laying low), and the latter gets him away from the endless aisles of clothes, so he takes what she's offering and wanders in the direction of the large sign at the back of the store indicating changing rooms. He's going to get a weird look from the attendant but heads on in to start trying stuff on.]
