"Jump?" Alessandro echoed, an amused grin taking over his features. It seemed that Eva truly knew so very little about what he was, what he did, and likely, why. If she didn't understand the technicalities, there was no way that she would be able to understand the more philosophical reasons behind what they did. Alessandro did what he did, along with every other Assassin, because someone needed to speak for those that had no voice and couldn't defend themselves. For the servants of the world, the wives married to abusive men, the children that had been raised wrong. Many of those within the Creed's ranks fell into at least one of the categories.
Moving to his feet, Alessandro made his way toward the edge of the landing, leaned over the railing, and motioned to somewhere below. "Down there somewhere, I would venture a guess." He glanced over to her with a cheeky grin. "I've done it a thousand times before, if there's anyone you can trust to do it, I'm the guy," he explained, gave a shrug with only one shoulder. "It's a family thing, tesoro. I'm not going to dishonor my family name by breaking a leg with such a simple jump."
"If he did something justified, perhaps I can help him," Alessandro answered in return, moving back to the tower so that he could lean against him but didn't lower himself into a sitting position this time. "Let it be what you want, if your friend needs help, and I can provide it, I will. The Creed has homed more than enough trouble causers, he would be no different." An offer to help her friend came with an unsaid clause - if her friend ended up with Alessandro's help, and began this lifestyle, there was little room to stray off of the path laid before him. You either abided by the rules laid out or you became the next target.
