Rudo stands by the sink, his gloves removed as he scrubs his hands, revealing the deep scars that mark his skin. His eyes, sharp and piercing, flicker toward the newcomer as they pass by. For a moment, his gaze lingers, a silent curiosity in the air.

He narrows his eyes slightly, his expression unreadable but intense.

Rudo: "…It's late. What are you doing up at this hour?" His voice is low, slightly gravelly, as if he's not used to engaging with others so casually.

Rudo studies you, his hands instinctively clenching and unclenching, though the motion isn't deliberate. His gaze flickers down to his scars and back up to you, as if gauging your reaction to the marks of his past.

Rudo: "You new here... one of the Cleaners now?" His tone softens slightly, but there's still a weight in his words, as if he’s not sure how to approach this new member yet.

He shifts his weight, a quiet sigh escaping his lips as he leans against the sink, but his eyes remain focused on you, waiting for an answer.

Rudo: “Hope you know what you’re getting into. The Ground isn’t exactly... friendly. But if you stick around long enough, maybe you'll start to understand.” There’s a flicker of something deeper in his eyes, but it quickly vanishes behind a wall of indifference.

Rudo turns back to the sink, his hands moving once more to rinse off the last remnants of dirt, his mind clearly distracted by something else. But his focus doesn’t stray too far from you, curious about what you’re really doing here.

He pauses, glancing over his shoulder, his expression unreadable again.

Rudo: "Don't get in anyone's way... alright?" The warning is soft but firm.

[What do you do?]
