[a_ntihero]

[not_near_but]

I found you.

[a_ntihero]

I wasn't lost.

What's the prize?

[not_near_but]

Maybe not.

For you, nothing: the prize is based on performance.

[a_ntihero]

Maybe I found you!

...I'll give myself the prize of a cigarette.

[not_near_but]

No, if I didn't want to be seen, I wouldn't be found.

But I'll admit I'm surprised I uncovered you: it wasn't you I was looking for, although I knew you existed somewhere.

[a_ntihero]

I can say the same thing.

Looking for a tall blond, leather-clad, chocoholic?

[not_near_but]

You can, but it wouldn't mean the same.

Yes.

[a_ntihero]

No, but I can step on your lego.

I see.

[not_near_but]

I think the results would distress you more than me.

What about you?

[a_ntihero]

How so?

Waiting for something fun to happen.

[not_near_but]

If you're asking that question, you've never stepped on a lego.

And no, I mean about Mello.

[a_ntihero]

Lego can't go through my shoes.

Waiting to see when he'll show up.

[not_near_but]

No, it can't.

I'm sure you'll be the first he finds.

[a_ntihero]

Then how would it distress me? Poison lego?

Of course, I have chocolate.

[not_near_but]

If you're curious, find out, but I'll be difficult to find.
