Loki sighed as he wandered out of the hospital. He looked down at the bandages wrapping around his wrist and palm, He had gotten into a bad slice involving old metal that couldn't go without seeing a 'professional'. With a few blinks of his peridot eyes, he turned to look up at the rare sunny sky. An empty smile touched his lips. A smile he wouldn't allow himself to have for very long.

⌖ Leo ⌖ Leo leaned against the wall beside the hospital entrance, allowing himself a quick respite in the shade before he had to set off somewhere under the sun again. He supposed he didn’t have to leave, but he had run out of things to do in the area and now he felt rather bored without a goal to strive to. He sighed to himself. His life was almost getting to the point where he’d go and find danger just so he had something to do. That was the only plus about his time in a gang; there had always been a job to get done. His boredom melted away to curiosity as a figure exited the hospital; a man a few years younger than him with a shock of white hair and bandaged arms. He didn't seem to notice Leo and, oddly enough, he raised his gaze to the sunny sky and smiled. But the smile didn’t quite seem to reach his eyes. Leo frowned. “What happened?” he asked, alerting the other man to his presence. Addressed: Loki Mentioned: --- Notes: ---

Loki nearly jumped out of his skin when the stranger spoke out to the side behind him. He turned on his heels and with wide eyes looked Leo over. He relaxed slightly and huffed out a breath. “Oh,” he motioned his hand around then went to hold his bandaged one, “Nothing impressive or anything, just shifting through some sheet metal.” He said in embarrassment, and couldn’t help but look away shyly.

⌖ Leo ⌖ Leo rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly at the stranger's reaction to him; he hadn't meant to startle the white-haired boy. He pushed off of the wall and trailed closer to the stranger as he explained the cause of his injuries. Leo regarded him quietly for a moment. He seemed rather bashful - an unusual trait in a world where a lot of people put up an aggressive facade to ward off potential enemies. “I'm Leo,” he finally grinned, holding out his hand for the other man to shake.

Loki turned back to Leo and looked him over before his eyes turned towards his hand. He hesitated before offering his own and shook his hand firmly. "I'm Loki." He said, leaving out his last name just like the stranger did. He looked to him and then to the hospital's entrance, "What are you here for?" He arched his brows high.

⌖ Leo ⌖ “Nice to meet you,” he said automatically as Loki introduced himself. Loki… The name was somewhat familiar. Leo could’ve sworn his mum had told him fantasy stories about a similarly named god when he was a kid, but he could've been wrong. He played with the straps of his backpack as Loki spoke, then shrugged at the other man’s question. “Just running some errands for some folks I barely know,” he informed Loki indifferently, a slight yawn escaping his lips. He sent a playful smirk in Loki's direction. “And now I’m bored and looking for something else to do. Any ideas?” Addressed: Loki Mentioned: --- Notes: ---

Loki stood still as he momentarily became entranced by Leo's small smile, he couldn't look away. He quickly caught himself, clenched his jaw and tore his gaze away from Leo. "I don't know if I can help you there, I was just going to head back to my residence and rest for the rest of the day." He waved his injured hand, "Kind of bummed out from today." He said, wincing to himself as he felt incredibly boring.

⌖ Leo ⌖ Leo was oblivious to Loki’s staring, too busy trying to think of things they could do to pass the time. He mellowed slightly when Loki said he was heading home to rest. Dang.“I guess that's the intelligent thing to do,” Leo conceded. He didn't think he'd want to rest if he'd been injured so he was oddly proud of Loki for looking after himself properly. Staring at the bandaged hand, Leo felt a pang of worry for the person he’d only just met, and once again wracked his brain for an idea - this time to think of a way to help out the guy rather than just doing something fun. “Maybe I could walk you home? If something jumped out at you it might be harder for you to fight it off with your injury, but if I was there –” He cut himself off, suddenly feeling like he was coming on too strong. He ran his hand though his hair nervously and chuckled. “Oh, um, I don’t mind if you say no of course. I can leave if it’s a bit too stalker-ish.” Addressed: Loki Mentioned: --- Notes: ---

Loki continued to stare at Leo and slowly did a smile form. He laughed lightheartedly with the man as the delightful nervousness fluttered in his stomach. Only just met the man and he was already walking him home? What a gentleman. He continued to smile at Leo and finally he nodded, "Sure, You can walk me home. That's very nice of you. I live in the Outskirts though, is that too out of your way?" He asked and began walking at a leisurely pace. He didn't know why, but he was beginning to be smitten with the man.

⌖ Leo ⌖ Pleased that his offer was accepted, Leo fell into step with Loki with his easy smile still in place. “Not at all! Like I said earlier: I’m bored. If anything, I should be thanking you for giving me something to do,” Leo mused. He was interested to hear that Loki lived in the Outskirts; he hadn’t explored it as thoroughly as the inner city and he was hoping he might spot something cool on their journey. Maybe he'd even find a place of his own to call home, as ever since he'd quit the gang he'd been uncomfortable settling down anywhere for more than a few days. Glancing sideways at Loki, Leo did a double take as he noticed some tattoos on Loki’s arm. He hadn’t spotted them before but now he was up close they were pretty obvious. If it were possible, he perked up even more. “Are those tattoos?” Addressed: Loki Mentioned: --- Notes: ---

Loki laughed softly, "Well, You're welcome." He walked along a few paces until he was asked about his tattoos, to which he lifted his arm and pulled back his sleeves, "Yeah, I've got a lot of them." He gazed down at the octopus along his arm, "Most of them are on my chest and back." He shrugged, and pulled his sleeves back down, perhaps a little too quickly. He looked on to the road ahead and stepped over some rubble of road. "And don't bother asking what they mean, I have a banana just because." He laughed again, a little more genuine and warm. "Do you have any?" He asked, not noticing the ursa that snaked along Leo's wrist.

⌖ Leo ⌖ Leo admired the octopus on Loki’s arm and briefly considered how weird it would be if he asked to see the tattoos on the other man’s back. In the end he decided it probably wouldn’t be a good idea; it was hardly the time or the place, and Loki seemed to cover himself up again pretty hastily. Leo tilted his head, concerned, but soon was distracted by Loki’s next words. “Fair enough,” Leo laughed along with him. In response to the question, he pulled back his sleeve as Loki had done to expose the snarling ursa on his right wrist. “Only one: it was part of some gang initiation thing–” he rolled his eyes theatrically “–but nowadays I just think it looks cool. I was thinking of getting some more actually, but tattoo artists are hard to find and I don’t think I trust myself enough to do a stick and poke”.Addressed: Loki Mentioned: --- Notes: ---

"Gang?" Loki paused in momentary panic. He didn't like the idea of being with a gang member, even if an ex one by the way of talking in past tense. He slowly began walking again, his shoulders a little stiff. He looked away and thought it over and also slowly began to relax. The vibe Leo was giving off wasn't threatening, surely he could trust him.. Unless he was planning to loot him once he'd found Loki's home. His brows furrowed slightly and tried to make like he wasn't worried, "Yeah, it's pretty risky. I can refer you to my friend if you're really serious." He arched a brow now.

⌖ Leo ⌖ Leo didn’t miss the way Loki paused when he mentioned he had been in a gang, and he felt uncharacteristically anxious about what the other man thought of him. He cursed himself inwardly. He’d forgotten that gang membership was not a thing that could casually mentioned to someone. He ran his hand through his hair once again. Loki looked stiffer than before and Leo felt awkward, yet he was momentarily distracted from the sudden tension by Loki’s offer. “Really? That would be awesome!” Leo exclaimed, his grin returning. “Maybe you could give me some ideas on what to get.” He gently bumped his shoulder against Loki’s in a playful manner. He hesitated, his bright expression faltering again as he considered how to approach the topic they'd previously glanced over. “You know I mentioned a gang – I, er, I’m not like that anymore – well, I guess I should say I was never like that since I never enjoyed – I mean, like I said earlier, you can tell me to leave at any time.” His words fell out in a rush with several false starts. He heaved a sigh and offered an apologetic smile to the other male. ”I guess what I’m trying to say is… I’m not gonna hurt you?” It sounded more like a question than he’d intended it to be, and he flinched at how graceless he was being. What happened to being ‘Mr. smooth talker’? he thought bitterly to himself. Addressed: Loki Mentioned: --- Notes: ---
