Wan sat curled up against the side of a dumpster. One of those big, double-sized ones that were almost one story tall and you had to jump to try and open from the top. The side door on it was open and there were stray and feral cats standing on the black and white trashbags from the local diners, pawing them open to pick at the food. Only one of the contributing greasy spoons was still open and the light from it's back door - across the street from the dumpster - was the only nearby illumination.
He was talking to the cats as they rubbed up against his legs and accepted his scratches. Cats that otherwise hissed at each other and jostled for the prime position around the food were gentle when they got close to him. His voice carried just far enough that it soon became clear he was trying to break up the spats that happened and convince all of them to get along with each other. For all that it seemed a silly thing to do, it did also seem to be working.
His eyes caught the movement out of the corner of his eyes and he looked up at Judas. For a moment he seemed wary of the man, but that moment passed as soon as their eyes met. Then he was waving and calling out, "Hello! Don't worry about us! We're friendly!"
