Bloodbath took the offered hand after a moment of hesitation, cautious smile pulling his face back. This man didn't seem too bad, hopefully he wouldn't have to fight him anytime soon.
His face fell back into his blank state at the man's statement, "I h-helped?" He mumbled, eyes sparking, "I-I really did?" He seemed to think for a moment before settling into a strangly calm stance, "A-anything else you need-need...ask m-me." He was aware this was showing a clear disregard for his allies in Pandemonium but they rarely praised him! Gluttony barely knew him, and he found being praised felt nice, even if it was given by a Keeper.

Gluttony could feel his surprise show on his face. He had been expecting a fight when he saw Bloodbath's face. Instead, he somehow managed to get an ally. An unusual turn of events indeed, although not an unpleasant one. He smiled at the other super as he considered his next words.
"The same can be said for me," he said after a brief moment. "If you need anything, just let me know."

Ok, so he made an...ally? This was turning out to be a better night than he thought! So what if the whispers in his head had reached a new high, that was what his gloves were for!
He cast a glance around, confirming there was nobody around, "You s-should go s-soon...If-If Pandemonium see-sees us not fighting, they'll k-kill both of u-us."

Gluttony was surprised and concerned at Bloodbath's statement, but he nodded anyway. If Pandaemonium would kill one of their own members simply for being civil towards a member of another faction, it didn't seem to be an ideal place for the young super. Still, Gluttony bit his tongue and kept his thoughts to himself. Bloodbath likely had some reason for associating with them.
"I'll leave as soon as I've finished my job," he said. "It won't take long, don't worry, but I wasn't just sent to kill him. I'm to make an example out of his corpse." With that, he started walking back to where he had left the man's remains. He had left exact details out for a reason, but he wondered if Bloodbath would ask about them anyway. It was a new experience for Gluttony, and he no longer knew what to expect.

"Oh...y-you're going to d-d-desecrate him?" The words flowed unprecedented, containing way too much knowledge on the act Gluttony was clearly going to do.
He thought back at the body, "It-it's easy...just rip h-him in half or-or take his-his arms and l-legs. It scares p-p-police." His face was completely blank, except for an almost wistful smile. He'd done things like this alot, you didn't get to be the scary face of thugs by being scared all the time.

Gluttony was surprised at Bloodbath's response. It seemed the boy had done the sort of thing before. It was further testament to the fact that it was a good thing that they were now allies. Outside of that, though Gluttony was unsure of how he felt about the boy so clearly being a practiced killer.
"I've found that the second option is generally easier with my skills," he said calmly, "although, honestly, I've never cared for the taste." He smiled wistfully, as though he was joking about a particularly bad memory. Upon reaching the door, he looked at his new acquaintance. "If you would like, you can take your leave now, so that there is no chance of someone chancing upon us making friendly conversation. You have my word that I'll leave the moment my work is done."

Bloodbath blinked at Gluttony's implied methods of desecration, he supposed a man like this would be labeled "sick" in a heartbeat, just like everyone else in Pandemonium.
"O-ok...good luck Gl-Gluttony." He mumbled just loud enough to be heard, small smile on his face at using somebody else's name before slinking down an alley. He was already covered in blood, hopefully the other thugs would assume he took care of their intruder.
Already he could hear whooping and yelling as the night woke the Slums, oh yeah, nobody was going to look at him twice...
