Who: Riku
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Down on the planet.
When: 31st; forward-dating!
[ riku has made himself quite scarce in the past few days. he says it's about crowds, it's about the natives being too welcoming. he finds it weird; good treatment is a rarity in his book, but so are actual people. but today, he's actually ventured out past the few tiny shops near the ships. hooded and walking slow, you may note that he's trying not to be noticed again, but there's not much to say in how he looks around a lot, constantly surveying his surroundings.
he's more or less a proverbial wallflower as he stands back, watching everyone have fun and dance with the locals. well, whoever is willing to. it's not really halloween, there's no chocolate, there's no kids running around in costumes, but... he supposes people are finding it fun, and that's what matters. ... he thinks.
the skulls are a little creepy, though. ]
I guess this is a happy birthday? [ admittedly, he sounds a tad amused. ] Maybe I could go a year without chocolate.
[ a pause; ] Or I guess I could try alcohol...? Wonder if they've got an interplanetary age law here...
[ creep creep creeping on over to a nearby bar... ]

[A frown, but then he stops that to smile kind and reassuringly at Riku and gives him a pat on the shoulder]
But don't worry! I promise I'll make sure you get back to your ship safely!
[...Allen. That's probably not what he means]
no subject
It's to keep you out of trouble, not the other way around.

[But the look is brief, before he smiles again. Maybe Riku is just one of those way too nice for their own good sorts. ]
Thank you, but you don't have to worry about me, really. I've done this since I was a child. [nevermind he looks younger than Riku]
I'm more worried about you getting hurt because of this, because they thought you were with me or...mixed you up for me. [what with the hair and all] You didn't have anything to do with this.
no subject
[ a shrug; ] Call it whatever you want--a favor, a nuisance, but I'm definitely not leaving you on your own.
[ and that's that, because he turns to just go back to the table. ]
