A little old man stands just outside of the courtyard, watching the Gate Walkers get their rations..

*squint* Your handwriting's atrocious, old man.

[df_citizen]

*Just a friendly smile and a nod. Probably doesn't understand a lick of what you're saying*

[makainoou]

*looks at him a moment, then switches to somewhat rusty Russian*

You don't speak English, do you?

[df_citizen]

*Perks! And then smiles warmly again.*

'Nyet.'

[turian_honor]

Great. Fanatics.

[df_citizen]

*Just a friendly smile and nod of his head.*

[willing_sheath]

[On her way back, pauses briefly to watch the old man, reading the sign before looking back to his face.]

...

[df_citizen]

*Smiles and nods amicably, touching his fingers to his hat.*

[willing_sheath]

...

[Glances back down to the sign, and back up at him again.]

[Doesn't say anything, just gives a slight incline of her head in response to his seemingly friendly gesture (which really didn't seem to match up with the sign he was wearing), and continues on to Midgard.]

*glances at the sign, then reaches up to her chest -- her hand glimmers a little blue-white -- as she reads the words slowly and then mumbles to herself*

Demons. ...We don't want to be here, either.

[df_citizen]

*Just smiles pleasantly and nods his head.*

[shiroganesoul]

*gives him a little closer look, nodding slightly as well*

You're from Veles, aren't you?

[df_citizen]

*Just smiles pleasantly and nods his head.*

[inksymmetry]

...

*moves to stand next to him with his "End is Nigh" sign*

[df_citizen]

*Oh! A fellow man! Nods pleasantly and continues to stand there.*
