[align=center][div style="borderwidth=0px; width: 55%; line-height:115%; text-align: justify;font-family: calibri;"]Borders were always a tricky subject when it came to Des. Back in the day, he couldn't have cared less where he went or why he went there, for his group had made it obvious that if they were to be turned down there'd be hell to pay, and likewise they didn't care much for people who trespassed, therefore letting them be. Borders were meant for groups that gave two shits about security, with children to protect and things to save... out in the wild, there was no such thing. Borders weren't necessary when you killed regardless.
But then he had settled down, grown up to lead a clan that made it so that he had to enforce borders. It was then that he had something to protect, and he had learned just how powerful that feeling could be when it came to strangers who trespassed. But it was different when you were a leader. You were in the command, and everyone looked up to you... here? Here Des wasn't even well known, and as such, his viewpoint on borders returned to what it had been.
If they existed, he could care less.
So perhaps it was beneficial to Tsuyu that he was the first to approach, gaze settled on her curiously but without hostility, simply analyzing her strange figure and wondering what she wanted that made it so she had crossed the border... especially given that the only real place to cross was the railroad, and she had apparently swam. "Oi - where'd you come from?" he called out, trotting forward slightly faster to make sure he didn't lose her lest she try to return from the water. He had questions, although none of them were aggressive either.
