[People show up in the Plaza at the end of the month. It's just a fact of life, for Vatheon. With all three of his friends here, Dirk doesn't bother hanging around for the sake of waiting for people to show up.
It means, as he passes through the plaza, he isn't looking for dripping wet newcomers. It also means that when he does see this particular arrival, he stops dead for a moment. It's enough time for Bro to get a good look at Dirk- Dirk, who looks exactly the same as him, only younger. Dirk's face is carefully blank as he approaches. It's hard for him not to know who this must be. This is Dave's Bro. It's hard not to be intimidated.]
