Of course the dropoff is somewhere loud, busy, and full of drunks. Damian hates it at once, but he goes like a dutiful son to try to ensure the safety of the new arrivals (and the citizens) in hopes that things will go smoothly. He's not engaging with any of the locals around him, but when they try to engage him there's a distinct shift in the way he presents himself.
