Luno looked around for a moment, pursing his lips in thought. Eventually he spotted a collection of pinball machines towards the back, and he found himself drawn to them by all the flashing gold lights. "How about those ones?" he asked
"Ooh, pinball," Baz said, noticing the machines towards the back of the arcade, his icy eyes lighting up as he made his way towards them. "Now this is what I had back in England. No fancy video games. Just a metal ball and some levers. Want to give it a go?" he added, looking down at the machine as he popped a few quarters in.
Luno nodded, smiling happily as he did so. "It looks simple, so maybe I'll be good at it?" he said, burying his face in the owl plushie as he spoke
"Trust me, my friend, it's a lot harder than it looks. Though, if you're good at the Claw, you must be good at this," Baz answered, standing back up as he looked down at Luno, a softer smile crossing his lips at the sight of the other burying their face in the plushie.
"He's gone." Durbin said, cleaning the equipment.
Luno smiled a bit, though it was partially hidden by the top of the plush owl. "Can I try it?" he asked softly, looking sort of adorable as he held the plushie close to his face
"Y-yeah," Baz nodded, rubbing the back of his neck as he stuttered faintly, the way Luno was being so adorable almost made him nervous. He moved away from the pinball machine, making some room for Luno.
Luno took one of the coins from him, just enough so that he could play a round on the pinball machine. He moved his plushie to the crook of his arm as he began to play
It was a kind of messy apartment, with what was inside it. Creed sat the little girl on the couch and gestured for Aleena to sit. "So." He began, "You said you wanted answers?"
“Yes but seeing all this, I’ve priced together a story”
Creed raised an eyebrow. "And what might that story be?" He asked.
“The fact that you steal to support your sister and keep her happy? “ she guessed
Creed tilted his head a bit. "That is true, but why do you assume she's my sister, and not my daughter?"
“You look to young to have a kid.”
Luno took one of the coins from him, just enough so that he could play a round on the pinball machine. He moved his plushie to the crook of his arm as he began to play
Baz watched Luno as he played the pinball game, glancing up to study the other every once in a while. They were really cute, but he told himself not to think of the other like that. They were only roommates.
Luno was actually really good at the pinball game, though he didn't quite know it at the time. He had his tongue stuck out in concentration, the plushie tucked in the crook of his elbow
“You look to young to have a kid.”
Creed nodded. "That's fair." He tilted his head. "But did you not want to know why one moment you were talking to a little kid, the next I had your wallet?" He asked.
“You look to young to have a kid.”
Creed nodded. "That's fair." He tilted his head. "But did you not want to know why one moment you were talking to a little kid, the next I had your wallet?" He asked.
Yes that also co fused me.”

"You're good," Baz mumbled, his muffled tone a bad habit he had been trying to break as he watched Luno, leaning against the pinball machine.
"Really?" Luno asked, turning to look at Baz. Though unfortunately this caused him to accidentally get distracted, and he ended up losing the game quickly after. He pouted as he held his plushie to his chest, looking sort of downtrodden. "I'm no good at these games," he mumbled
"You've almost won every game here, so I have to say you're a professional. Especially for your first time at an arcade," Baz replied with a small smile in an attempt to lift Luno's spirits.
"I didn't win the pie ghosts, and I don't think I won this one," Luno mumbled, his voice a tad muffled from the plushie pressed partially against his mouth
"Well, I distracted you on the pinball machine. As for Pacman…that game is hard. Even for me," Baz explained, running a hand through his messy hair as he looked down towards Luno, trying to console the other. Though, he couldn't keep a smile from crossing his face when Luno said 'pie ghosts.' It was adorable. "You did great, Luno. Don't worry," he added.
"I did?" Luno asked, perking up a tad at the compliment. He squeezed the plushie a little tighter to his chest, looking up at Baz with hope in his shimmery gold eyes
