"(Is he gone?)" Ceil poked his head out of his hiding spot, and took a look around. The alley was dank as usual, and his nostrils were filled the same familiar smell. This was his 'home...' Well, temporary home as he put it. Ceil longed for a better life, and an end to all this sadness and depression. As he poked his head out, he heard the familiar grumbling of a gruff guy. He quickly retracted his head back into his 'home,' and waited for the familiar man to pass on by. The man was a butcher he had been robbing to keep himself full each day, and the man was not excited to be losing revenue in times like these. After a while, the grumbling faded away, as he heard water splashing in the alley way. Ceil poked his head out, the coast clear for the time being. Ceil let out a soft sigh as he stepped out into the opening, pulling something out of his bag.

"This chunk o' meat should last be a couple of days if I eat it wisely," Ceil mumbled as he inspected the meat, before shoving it back in his bag. He then walked down the alley, making a small splashing sound heard when he stepped into the puddles. "I hope to figure out how to fix all this one day, and help these people get out of their mess, instead of contributing to it." After a few seconds, he made it to the opening of the alley, and quietly watched as the people passed on by, before slipping into the crowd himself. Ceil quickly pulled his goggles down onto his face and put his hat back on to avoid being recognized by anyone in the crowd.

As he began walking, he heard a tiny pap on the top of his hat. As he silently looked up, rain speedly dripped onto his face. "This day keeps getting better and better," Ceil grumbles to himself, as he continues to push his way through the crowd. "Wonder what's next, a maiden having to be saved from some lowly crooks?" He quietly chuckled to himself, thinking something like that would never happen in his lifetime. "(If something like that happened, maybe I could make a little money if that happened... Grateful maiden tips me, I rob the thieves, and gain more money from the thieves.)"
