[And there's truth in that-- his behavioural quirks, the animalesque impulses, in part they're something bred into him, something imbedded right down to his DNA and therefore impossible to escape, whilst the rest is a matter of socialisation, or the lack thereof. Without the complication of social conventions and niceties instilled into them at an impressionable age, the Dogs were instead encouraged to act on their instincts, and subtly it shows, right down to even simple things like this. His dislike of inactivity, the need to be kept moving, kept occupied.
He is what they've made of him.
As such, he's ready enough to comply with Julius' suggestion. To pace and guard and wait for something to happen. To stretch his legs, as it were.
He nods when Julius gives his answer, and despite those base instincts that pull and tug at him, there's a sharpness in his eyes that denotes thoughtful intelligence. He knows a thing or two about the Enforcer, the rumours one picks up on, and he'll take it as a small confirmation that he has had at least one similar modification, that the two of them are likely immune.
It makes sense for the both of them to be stationed here, when thought of like that.]
