of Hobgoblins and Hot Dogs

Mar 13, 2007 20:55

Dr. Whitten wakes from another of his blackouts, smelling faintly of roses... again. He wishes he knew why that was. But the blue pills... don't help with memory, but they do wonders for the headaches. And supposedly for the 'episodes', and he's currently with it enough to keep taking them ( Read more... )

The little boy in the Spongebob t-shirt and the saffron robes stands out a little bit, so Dr. Whitten might notice him before he manages to sit next to him on the park bench. He's almost bald, except for a short growth of fuzzy black hair, with pale grey eyes and an easy smile.

Oh, and he's holding out a hot dog. Just a hot dog. The bun's in his other hand.

"Are you hungry? Would you like food?" he asks, his English slightly stilted and accented with something Asian. "You can have this."

He holds the hot dog out a little farther.

He's a little suspicious looking at first, as if the hot dog might bite or something, but a few blinks later behind the broken glasses, and the kid and and offering of a handout fits into the current world.

"Domo Arigato." he replies with a pretty good accent from somewhere or other, taking the hot dog and eating half of it in a bite. Definitely hungry.

The hot dog will not bite! The meat grinder took care of that.

Not to mention that the parts that went into the hot dog probably had nothing to do with biting in the first place. Hopefully.

"Um. You are welcome." Another grin and the boy takes a big bite of the hot-dog bun, loaded high with relish and onions and pickles and mustard and ketchup - all the veggie stuff one can possibly get on a hot dog. He chews slowly, either not as hungry as Whitten is, or just not in a hurry.

"Where are you going?" he asks, before starting in on his second mouthful.

Now there's a good question. He has food... or a food like product anyway. Better than the start of a lot of days. To a shelter? Maybe. To go stand outside the gates of OsCorp again...? Maybe, but they arrested him last time. Something about harassment.

"Not sure yet. Where are you headed?"
