[ His abilities are not something he normally uses in public, not anywhere he could be caught using them. Abilities like his are not looked upon fondly by... well, anyone, really, and there's a reason he keeps most of them a secret. Only desperate times sometimes call for desperate measures and his most recent contact with the adventurers guild got a little too nosey for his own good.

Which is how Jamil had found himself backed into a dark alley tonight with a Problem on his hand that had no other solution than to make sure his secret was kept. Which meant it had to be Forgotten. Fortunately for him, this idiot had thought to take advantage of him somewhere secluded and he turned that to his own advantage with ease. Catching the man's eyes and holding his gaze until he fell into Jamil's snare and then a few whispered words could fix everything.

If he relieved the man of his very full purse as recompense for his trouble? Well, it only served the fool right. Sending the adventurer off to some distant locale thinking he was headed off on some great destiny neatly tied up any loose ends and he left the alley with a crooked grin and in a much better mood.

Tonight had been surprisingly more profitable than even he'd expected. ]

[Dark alleys are where the Knights of Favonius will not go, so it stands to reason that Jamil would assume that they're safe. Unfortunately for him, they aren't.

A dark figure lingers in the shadows behind him, watching the entire interaction with bright crimson eyes. What he sees is more than enough--the hypnotism, the wild goose chase he's sent the man on, the taking of his purse. Someone should intervene and teach this kid a lesson.

As it so happens, Diluc is more than qualified to do exactly that. He shifts in the darkness, firmly setting himself between Jamil and the open street. His eyes narrow]

Interesting ability you have there.

[ Jamil stills immediately in the darkness and normally that would be enough to help him slip back and hide, but whoever had seen him... he didn't think this newcomer would be so easy to dodge.

And he'd already seen too much. Honestly. What was with his luck tonight?

Forcing a casual pose, he merely arches an eyebrow at the figure he can only make out the outline of, backlit from the glow of the open street beyond. ]

I don't know what you're talking about, friend.

[It was too much to hope that he wouldn't be evasive about it. A shame; it would have been easier for both of them if he had just admitted to it then and there. Diluc might have allowed some leniency.

As it is, he remains planted where he stands and crosses his arms.]

Takes quite the persuasive tongue to convince a man to chase shadows on a whim. Especially without any funds.

I'm curious how you managed it.
