"Hey, kid, don't you at least need somebody else for that?"
That would be the big red man coming off patrol. Hellboy is a genial sort, and loves kids-- not that they really love him that much, but hey. Some people love chocolate while their thighs hate it.
"Bzwhu-?" Link whiffs the air beside his soccer ball, jerking his head around. Link is learning the tolerating others' differences thing, so he only stares a little. He's just curious.
"Mm, I guess, but y'know." Links shrugs and tucks his hair behind his ears, shoulders heaving "Everyone's busy. I'm Link. I mean, that's my name. Link. Yeah."
Since, y' know, he looks like a kid and someone, somewhere, takes umbrage at some kid spitting HELL out every five seconds when talking to him. But he's not gonna be Heckboy, no sir.
"You wanna kick that around a little? I promise," he adds with a grin, "I'll go easy on ya."
"I must have missed you when I was going 'round the apartments. Albrecht is gonna be irritated. Still, nice to meet you." Link puts his foor on his soccer ball and rolls it back and forth, thinking.
"I'll go easy on you too," Link kicks the ball to Hellboy with a small, awkward smile "Seems fair." The fun thing about self-awareness is the mockery you can direct at yourself.
Jim doesn't share Link's sentiment. He thinks this place sucks.
But games, those tend to make places suck less.
For a while, Jim watches the kid with the soccer ball, which doesn't look like anything he's ever seen. Eventually, he gets up and ambles a bit closer.

Thwack!
The ball smacks into the courtyard wall and bounces off wildly. Link scrambles after it, laughing.

"Need someone to play against?"
Boy needs physical excersize.

"Yeah, I guess. I mean, the wall is cool and all, but I think he's getting bored."
