Wolfwood just grunts at that, but the kid's got a point.
He wants to say that's not a risk, that there's nobody at the orphanage right now, but there will be eventually, won't there? Eventually everyone will go back to their homes -- everyone who was born on this world anyway -- and so long as there's orphans in December, Wolfwood's sure there will be Vash the Stampedes looking for trouble in that direction.
He chews over the idea for almost a full minute, thinking. He doesn't want to actually have the kid hurt Blondie, but... but they have to stay away from innocents like the orphans. He's just seen too much of what follows in their path, and he can't let that happen to these kids.
"Call him by name." He's making good progress through that pack of cigarettes -- if he's got any left by the time they find Luida it'll be a minor miracle. "If you're sure it's him, get everyone's attention and call him Vash the Stampede just as loud as you can." Sorry Spikey. "That'll chase him off."
