Duncan had wasted no time getting out of sight and into his disguise, assuring that the mask covered his upper face securely. He already knew that stepping into public view like this would get him caught; he was too distinguishable, there'd easily be witnesses. The lacking pedestrian traffic of the rainy day wasn't exactly much of a help either, since he'd have no cover.

As he began to make his way forward, shrouded in the shadows, a torrent of thoughts flooded his mind. Most importantly, why the attack had happened at all. As far as he could tell, the Hunters and Huntresses had been doing a very good job of keeping their respective cities safe from the Grimm. Even Vale, with its scattered teams and divided people, was holding its own against the beasts that wandered its streets. But still the question nagged at him; why? Why Vale in particular?

He hopped from cover to cover as the questions ran through, trying to piece everything together as best as he could while staying undetected. In the end, he resolved to answering them later; for now, he had to focus on Louise. She was probably one of the smarter members of the team, so maybe she could help him figure something out once she was back to herself. Then again, she was never much of a girly type of person, and masculine gifts weren't exactly the pinnacle of comfort.

''...Eh, trial and error, I guess. Maybe she'll appreciate the thought more than the gift, or something, ''he hoped.
