George
George couldn't help a crooked grin as his new friend gaped at him, enjoying the sensation of being shocking. He kept an ear behind them and heard no commotion, no shouts of, "Thief!" Stopping to seemingly look at the wares of a nearby stall, he glanced casually behind them. It didn't seem that they were being followed, so the patron they'd robbed must have either not noticed that they'd stolen from them, or simply not been quick enough to follow. He moved on, sticking by Hawke's side.
"Torchline," said George by way of explanation. "I'm just visiting. I like to travel." Which was a shorter way of saying, I like to move around so my marks don't get used to seeing me, but that was neither here nor there. "What about you?" They didn't seem like they were from Torchline - he'd never seen them there, anyway - but they could be from anywhere else. Maybe if they knew the area, they could be beneficial to him. Perhaps they could help each other to score something big.

if life had background music playing your song
I've got to be honest - I tried to escape you but the orchestra plays on
