The joke's on you, mister! I don't have friends to bring with me!

[Ain, that is... so fucking sad. What the hell.

The reality is that one of his brothers would probably have been more than willing to come with him, but not this far out. This is not their turf. This is where the sinners are. This is why Ishmael wanted them to stay north, where it's safe, where everyone dresses properly and money flows and none of Chapel's dangerous, sinful civilians are roaming around with guns.

Like, seriously, where are the priests out here. You're all going to Hell.

So, Wolfwood has "let Ain go", and Ain is going back to the other market stalls to re-buy the same produce, which doubles what he's carrying but that's alright, he has extra of those tote bags on him because it's cheaper than paying for paper or plastic here and less wasteful in the end. It means he doesn't exactly have his hands free half the time, resulting in some clumsy fumbling with his cash at times... and this is what clues people into the fact Ain's got way too much money on him. Do you know how much $100 is going to pay for, for the average family? On this side of town, a rich boy is a target.

Ain makes it out of the market in one piece, at least, holding his tote bags of fruits and veggies and spices around his wrists, looking happier... and then he gets fucking accosted immediately, the second he leaves the sunny park and gets a bit down the street. His hands are full, and it makes defending himself against three much larger guys difficult. To be fair to him, when he said he knew self-defense, he wasn't lying — but it's old-school and not great, nothing against three guys who aren't going to play fair while they slam Ain into the brick wall and try to reach into his pockets.]
