[ Even if a bit cold, it seemed to Hughes like an excellent day for going out and about. Things have been getting really interesting lately, and what better way to observe the results of this than by finding a nice bench to sit on and eat popcorn while he people-watches? He'll open his journal and then get temporarily distracted by the sight of

Doing all right.

Hungry

....All things considered.

Although going into hiding might be a good idea for a while...

[idkmybffroy]

So it would seem. [ Politely ignoring demonic thought bubbles like a boss. Because, like, there are stores with food everywhere, obviously. ]

Don't let it get the best of you, hm~? Hiding can get very tedious.

[derek_bliss]

[Derek nods. Hiding can be tedious...then again, this is Mr. 'I work solo', so it's not like he's a stranger to the whole concept...]

...Good to see someone isn't having a bad time with this, anyway.

Bet his bloo--Just. Shut. Up..

[idkmybffroy]

It's all in how you approach it! { ...interesting. Hopefully nothing too dangerous. }

[voice]

[nadarejin]

Well enough. And yourself?

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

I'm doing very well, thank you for asking!

Now, I don't believe I've had the pleasure of making your acquaintance here either. Maes Hughes, at your service.

[voice]

[nadarejin]

Good to hear.

I don't believe so. (He has a surname. Should I be using that or the given name . . . ?) It's nice to meet you. My name is Leonardo.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

{ How polite~ }

You can call me whatever it is you prefer, I've heard everything here, haha!

[voice]

[heteropennae]

Today is very bizarre, Mr. Hughes.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

It certainly seems to be, doesn't it?

[voice]

[heteropennae]

I think I'm a... what did he call it, again?

Oh yes. I think I'm a telepath.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

You do? { That's an odd conclusion to come to so suddenly. }

[action]

[knighted_lion]

[Squall's out and about more often than not, and by coincidence, his path takes him past Hughes.]

(Not really. It's just one of the ones that happens.)

[action]

[idkmybffroy]

[ And Hughes never gives a crap about perceptions of privacy, apparently, because hey, why not? ]

Ah~ a more experienced citizen in these experiments, I take it?

[action]

[oda_hates_me]

It is mild.

[Sanji's really only passing through, though he did spare a glance in Hughes' direction out of recognition.]

It'll end in a few days.

[action]

[idkmybffroy]

Yo, Sanji~! [ May or may not be getting up now. Hearing your statement with a nod. ] Aa, and I'll bet that turns out to be the popular opinion, too.

[ And not that he would ever troll you, too, but~ ] You're much taller than I would expect for someone who's smoking at your age~

[action]

[oda_hates_me]

[He regrets talking to you already, Hughes. That is met with a sour glance]

Is that so?

You're a lot louder than I'd anticipated, but that's a trait all old men share.

[action]

[idkmybffroy]

[ That's a common reaction. ]

It is. { He's much taller than Edward, that's for sure. }

Nobody ever anticipates it! [ B| Old. Indeed. ] But we have to do our best to keep you kids on your toes somehow, hm~?
