For a brief moment Jasper had to wonder if the woman had heard him. She made no motion to give him the indication that she had and he, admittedly, often talked quite a bit softer than he likely should have. Of course it could have easily been a case of her simply ignoring, which he supposed he could understand. Who would want to answer the call of a stranger in the middle of the night? Certainly he wouldn't have, despite the fact that it was he who attempted to initiate the conversation in the first place. As the line was cast out toward the water once more, Jasper turned, ready to depart, not wanting to bother someone who potentially didn't want to be bothered at all.
He didn't make it far though, barely even a few steps away, before the voice of the woman hit his ears. He jumped just a bit at her words, though his steps ceased and he turned back around toward her. "Oh. Uh..no.." He hesitated a bit, shuffling forward a few more steps so that she might hear his quiet voice a bit better. "I was just looking for someone and thought maybe you had seen him come through here?" Only the thought of finding Laurent could make the timid man approach a complete stranger. "He is really big and lots of different color browns and some black?"
