It's much easier to be the guy that's underestimated or perceived as disinterested than to blatantly broadcast his aims towards keeping an eye on people; truthfully, he prefers it.

"Um, don't take this the wrong way," Please don't, he doesn't want to die, "But your reputation precedes ya, Mosquito."

He leans against the wall casually. "I've met some of your family, a long time ago. Now I ain't the guy to cast stones about extremism, but just to clear things up: what I've heard is pretty contrary to the platform you're running on now. Change of heart?"
