Yuffie didn't really like to waste time explaining shit to new people or dealing with the fact that they know very little about what's going on in this world. She'll swing by and see who's magically appeared hoping Cid or anyone else with half a brain might show up but that wasn't expected anymore.

Once she got bored she took to the rooftops and wandered around town. It was better than sticking around and listening to the repeated explanations. She had her hair tied back, the long strands of black now falling to her shoulder blades. It was winter but Yuffie still wore shorts as well as her usual ninja gear. Clearly weather was no match for her.

It was really hard to recognize Rufus in his new job clothing which was perhaps why Yuffie looked right past him. She jumped down from her perch atop a bakery and then swiped a pastry as she blended in with the crowd.

Her shoulder roughly hit Rufus's as she walked by though she made no effort to apologize. She did however turn, the pastry clenched within her jaw as she looked up at the man. There was a second of confusion, then surprise flicking across her features before she flicked a dagger into her palm. She couldn't say anything because she was eating but her intent was obvious, even on the crowded street.
