Is that not weaving a narrative in its own right? I'd say trying to be inconspicuous is no tall feat, especially in situations such as this.
[ The tune he's plucking changes, less accidental Freebird and more trying to remember a certain melody he had heard before. ]
For example, I recently watched a movie where a woman who was being protected by the authorities had been placed in a convent for nuns while awaiting a trial for someone she had key information on. She had nearly managed to succeed if not for someone getting intel about her whereabouts to try and kill her, with all but the Reverend Mother none the wiser!
What? Of course I'm capable of staying quiet for longer than five minutes. [ and just to make this clear! ] Outside of being asleep, too.
[ as for the tune that richard begins to play for them....hm. it isn't one that he's familiar with but finds enjoyable all the same. cue sabo humming along to it for a moment. ]
I suppose there's truth in that. As far as that movie is concerned, using a convent as cover for your identity is a pretty bold decision—not one that I'd go with if I had other choices. Too many things to consider. However, given that it was a movie, I bet it was quite entertaining.
[ yeah. on account of the fact that they're lesbians. ]
It was as good of time as any to sleep, since we weren't being watched down there. You did not miss anything of note, aside from the wonderful music I was introduced to.
[ He looks at Sabo, interest clearly painted on his face as he kind of starts riffing off into something else completely unrecognizable. ]
Indeed, should I be worried that you're in fact a covert Assassin here to threaten me or Ayaka?
[ sabo will listen to the two of them discuss the movie before they both turn on him and ask the most appropriate question in this situation. given everything that he has been saying to both of them, it doesn't come to any surprise but he will raise his hands up defensively at richard. ]
An assassin? No, no. I'm no assassin and I would never harm anyone here.
[ "here" being the functioning word in this circumstance. he doesn't really want to doxx himself but, at the same time, does it matter...? ]
I'm the Chief of Staff to the Revolutionary Army in my world. [ very creative name. ] It's not an exactly centralized army so I'm involved in many covert missions.
[ ayaka's wowed by the creative title. sure, it's no king of england and duke of normandy, but throw around a word like 'revolutionary army' and any layman like her would be impressed. and she is. ]
That's incredible. No wonder people confuse you for a celebrity at home.

[ he seems to be talking from experience. who the hell has experience in purposefully covering your identity?
but as she hears the song, she leans her head back, looking at the ceiling. ]
I think I was asleep while he watched it. Maybe I should've done a better job to stay awake for longer.
[ though it's not like she thought they were going to find a better place than the underground club. ]
