[ Oh Benson, all that rage is bad for you. He certainly won't be the only one out and about town today, as fate would have it. Falling back into lollipops for money territory tends to lead to days where large-headed elderly gentlemen are ushered out relatively early in the day, for some reason. Eh, youth these days.
Well not like Pops is complaining. All the more time for cheerfully roaming the sidewalks, his true passion in life. He knows his street is somewhere around town, but he can get around to that later. Fun times now, they simply take precedence. 8I ]
[Just a small groan as one of his hands slides over his face. Of course Pops wouldn't recognize him, and at the same time? Of course Pops would just be that cheery to a complete stranger, no matter what.]
It's me, Pops. Benson.
Do you know what's going on here?
[Although he isn't holding his breath for an answer.]
Benson, my good man, you've finally arrived! Good show! Oh, jolly good show! [ He is so excited right now it's ridiculous and he just wants to hug this non-gumball Benson. ]
I was just on my way home, but I suppose you're right... [ Benson is always so sensible, how does he do it. ] May Field is still being very pleasant today, so it! We've even fallen under our very own snowstorm, you know.
Let's see, I live at... [ Thinking pause. A few steps thisaways, a couple thataways. He'll have plenty of time to get to know street names, for now landmarks are his best bets. ] Ah- it's this way, of course!
I haven't been alone at all; Taiwan and Nadeko are staying with me. And I still see Mordecai and Rigby very often! [ He shrugs and loses a minimal amount of cheer. Silly strange Mayfield setup. ] It's not quite as interesting as having them as employees, but I suppose that can't be helped.
They're the young ladies who live with me! I think you'll like them, they're very nice. Taiwan even let me help her decorate for the holidays! [ so fun. SO FUN.
... It is so much more quiet without those two, it's crazy. ]
[Benson breathes a sigh of relief. Okay. Alright. This could be good. Whoever he's shacked up with? Could work. At least he's not saddled with the crazy, mindless people Benson has found himself forced with. There's no way Pops could hope to really take care of a household, at least by himself. So at least he's with someone who can help him.]
...Alright. Good. I'll come and see you guys every once in awhile, okay?
Yes, I insist! [ It's. It's just really nice to have Benson around again. Knowing what to do is so much easier when you have someone who knows what you're supposed to do. ] And Mordecai and Rigby are doing well, I think!
[ A little bit of a contemplative silence and expression. Quick peek down this street while he's at it and nope, no familiar snowmen markers on it. ] May Field can be very frightening, but they're quite the example of good sports.
[Well. That isn't good to hear, and for a moment Benson can feel the breathing stopping in his throat. Goddammit. Please tell him Pops has been alright.]

Pops, really, what are you doing here all alone? You should at least have someone with you, you know that!

Alright. Then...let's go that way.

[Dammit Pops, it's important to know who you're hanging out with.]
Heh. Less interesting is one way to put it. Has to be more quiet, at least.
