"honestly, people, store goings-on are really rather boring, and why do you wanna be bothered with it, anyway?" Y'know, I really could have cared less about any of this till bloodsong, etc., started telling us not to worry our pretty little heads. Those are the magic words for arousing suspicion, if you ask me. If it's all so boring, then why not do it out in the open? Everyone will lose interest in the first ten minutes, and you guys can have it all to yourselves again.
