More relieved that he’d like to admit now that the older man was off his case, and thankful that Johnny didn’t go the route that many others did once hearing that he didn’t drink, Gilles drew his attention away from the older man and back onto Johnny.
[color=0072bc]"Knock yourself out,”[/color] he had told  the stranger. [color=7ea7d8][i]I hope he does, hopefully he’ll have  a sense of humour knocked into him as well.[/i][/color] He bothered not hide the soft chuckle that arose as this thought crossed his mind, which only intensified when Johnny voiced his concern over him.

“I ain’t putting myself down. I [i]embrace [/i]being a loser. Cheer up, okay? Don’t be worried over someone stupid like that or someone stupid like me when your home’s a mess and you’ve nearly got yourself killed, silly.” [/color]

A few more chuckles escaped him before he went silent once more. A few moments later, he spoke once again, [color=7ea7d8]“If I’m not a bother, I don’t mind helping you find them. In fact, you probably don’t need to tell me how they look like,” [/color]he paused, digging out his video camera.

[color=7ea7d8]"I think I might’ve met one of them before.”

It was his latest recording, so Gilles found the clip he was searching for very quickly. Holding it between them so that Johnny could get a good look, he played the clip, a brief but clear video of the strange glowing figure he had seen on Johnny's van not too long ago.

[color=7ea7d8]"That one of them? I know it's creepy to you that I've got this on camera, I was sort of recording something and your van went by, and I was too tempted to not. I thought it was pretty cool, heheh..."
