"Yes," he says in agreement to Dexter's guess. "Our reputations precede us, it would seem."

He's not sure what to think of Dexter and trying to caution himself against taking on a new pet project so soon after Will, but maybe a distraction is just what the doctor ordered. He'll think on it, but maybe he'll just amuse himself copycatting for a while.

"And I have time." He takes the invitation to come to the table, tilting his head to give himself a straight on view of his work. How long until the bits of missing muscle were noticed? He'd harvested carefully, taking it in ways that might look logical for someone trying to make the puppet dance more lithely - after all, what artist doesn't want to improve his work with time? And his copying would be more obvious if it had been identical to past cases.

"This is the puppeteer's work I've been reading about?" He pulls a photo closer, silently critiquing the photographer's work rather than his own.
