[ Ruh roh. Verso following the Expedition so intently is far from the biggest secret he has, and he must've been watching in some way or another for Gustave to be able to draw him out by flinging himself from that height at all -- but he can't quite let Gustave get the sense of just how closely he's been following them the entire time, or how it extends back to his time in Lumiere.
And while he hasn't been long away enough from people to think that following and watching people from afar is normal, Verso does tend to underestimate how off-putting it can be when it comes up.
He sinks down next to him, watching the moonlight play off the water, for a moment, before with a half-shrug, as casually as possible -- ]
