[Dostoevsky isn't the only one who's avoiding the party. Akechi hadn't been there for the battle against the monster and only had a few run-ins with the 'branded' ones (mostly just with a one clown, tbh), so he really didn't feel like joining in the celebration. What would be the point? He wasn't exactly in mood to share fake smiles and feigned pleasantries with the others.
Besides... He was suffering from people overload, all thanks to Akira and others deciding to visit his room just a few days ago to celebrate his birthday. An occasion that he didn't care for at all. Just as pointless as the current celebration, in his mind.
So, that's reason why he's out in the late evening, to get some peace of mind from all the noise and ruckus that had taken over the inn. He really doesn't have a goal, just idle wandering while also paying attention to the state of the town. Aldrip sure had seen a better days. It's by then he comes across the.. strangely dressed man (heavy coat and hat in this climate? wow), bent over the booth of an obvious charlatan, hauling up the brightly colored vials. Looking like a boogieman from children's story. ]
I wouldn't trust those if I were you. [He calls over, voice showing only mild interest.]
