The leash is entirely unexpected, and John whirls in place to stare at Bane, eyes wide and betrayed--though why he's surprised, he couldn't say. He should have expected this.

But it's not as though he could run, anyway. And though he can see a few curious people peering out from behind the other tents and cages, no one comes close enough for him to even talk to.

John's naked ("Beasts don't need clothes.") and he has to struggle not to hide himself as he slowly takes a few steps. His ears swivel and flick, and though his cage isn't closed off, it's odd how just being outside allows him to hear so much more.
