The brunette was speaking to him. That took him a few seconds to register. He had to get his head together. Looking as out of place as he felt was dangerous, he'd learned that quickly enough on board Serenity. He took several long, calming breaths and finally shook his head slowly. "No," he admitted, his voice as relaxed as he could manage. "I'm not. A uh...tourist." Not his usual response to this sort of thing but he was getting better at hiding who he was thanks to all the time spent hiding.
And he'd never, ever risk the Serenity being found. Not only for their less than legal activities, but for the protection of his little sister. If anything he did or said to this woman put River in danger, he'd never forgive himself. He could handle being arrested himself, if it came to it. But not her. Never her. "A bit crazy in here, isn't it?" he commented as casually as he could, trying to act as if he saw this sort of thing every day.
