"Interesting." It's very mild and surprisingly inoffensive. Maybe it's the utter lack of judgement or horror in everything from tone to body language. The man isn't looking at Varker with pity, nor as a fascinating specimen.
Eyes shift from meeting Varker's to watching the tongue. Ignore it? Vincent seems to willfully avoid the suggestion. He lifts his right hand, removing the glove and extends it, palm forward, to within an inch of the air the creature is tasting.
Vincent looks human. He is not. Underneath a trace of what is left, the leather and gun oil is something bestial. But also something ancient and wrought from the essence of terror and death itself. Even if it isn't close to the surface right now, will Varker's other part discern its presence?
...The former Turk's action has more behind it than idle curiosity. He does need to know how Varker will react if they are going to work together. And whether or not that other brain understands their words, it's also polite to introduce himself.
