Who: Anyone
What: Anything
Where: Las Vegas strip, an outside restaurant
When: Lunchtime

Aiden sat at a round metal table, covered with it's checked vinyl tablecloth, watching the world go by. The restaurant's patio offered a nice view of the Las Vegas strip for those that cared to watch. Most patrons did not, talking animatedly to their companions or gazing at their romantic partners. But as Aiden was lunching alone today she could do none of those things, ergo she chose to people watch to pass the time. She didn't mind, Aiden enjoyed people watching. She was playing a game that she'd invented as a child: Guess the People. Ok, perhaps the name wasn't so original, but as a six-year-old she had felt very impressed with herself.

She looked the passersby over one by one and tried to guess what they did for a living. Lawyer, teacher, student by day stripper by night. It honed her detecting skills, she thought; and it was just plain fun.
