[He's suspecting an attack for sure then. Shikamaru's glad he waited. Hidan's a few bricks short of a load, but he's not a complete idiot.
Most of the people in the square will give him a wide berth with that behavior. This works for Shikamaru - the only reason he's held off attacking is because he didn't want anyone coming to the aid of a "new feather" while Hidan has that scythe out.
Still hiding in a dark corner on a roof around the bend, he drops his camouflage jutsu. Shadows move within shadows, and he's snaking his through those of the nearby buildings towards Hidan's for a stealth attack.]
