King blinked. And then blinked again. And finally, pushed their hair from their face, staring at him, making sure they weren't seeing things. Under their breath, they whispered, sounding utterly confused despite having no vision problems-
They stared, baffled at him. He was a kid. Not quite the child, or teenager, or even adult, that they knew well. He looked all limbs, legs, and cuteness. King stopped and glanced down at the convenience store food they just bought. Maybe... King dug around, yeah they had bought some of those grape candies, but... King glanced up into his general direction, their expression remaining as neutral as they could. Giving a kid candy when you're an adult is weird, this much was obvious, even they weren't that naive. They sighed and shrugged, approaching him, knowing that making connections was important, even if he was a kid. He was still a powerful kid, and King did adore children. Best to assert themself as at least a mildly friendly face, the least King could do. They popped a grape candy into their mouth. Speaking around the hard candy,
"Yo. Have you seen Haru-san around anywhere? I was supposed to give her a call when I was safe from those thugs, but my phone broke yesterday."

โAh?โ The young cow-child turns around at the sound of his name. Who was this? They didnโt look very familiarโฆ but then again, when did Lambo-san really care to remember the faces of those who werenโt his lackeys or jerks who poke fun at him on the daily basis? You were either henchman or a jerk who was hungry for a knuckle sandwich! Why did they keep staring at him? Watching as the mysterious person started rummaging through their bag, Lambo could only think one thing: โNEW HENCHMAN IN THE MAKINGโ This person knew to find something to offer the great LAMBO-SAN, Guehehehe! What a smart new henchmen! Itโs already in the bag, youโre a henchman. Sorry, he makes ALL THE RULES.
โEh? Haru?โ He forgot all about the henchman initiation plan he was hatching in his brain. He stands corrected, you are either a henchman, a jerk, or his lovely older sisters who play with him whenever he gets lonely. Anyone who was on good terms with Haru was okay in his book. The last time he tried to make a henchman out of one of her friends, he actually got scolded. This is a dangerous game to play, huh? โHaru is probably gonna be around soon if you follow Lambo-san around.โ
"Lambo-san, hm? Haru-san calls me King-san. Any friend of Haru-san's is a friend of mine. Here, I bought too many snacks earlier."
An excuse, but still fairly true. King probably wouldn't eat all the treats in the bag, some of them were to just take home for when King was bored. King opened the bag for Lambo to peer inside. Inside of the bag was various treats. Sweet packaged hanami dango, grape hard candies, two tuna mayo onigiri, two nikuman neatly wrapped in napkins, a whipped cream and blueberry stuffed sandwich, and two cherry flavored soda pops. Quite the variety. The bag stayed open for him to browse inside, King hadn't said anything was off limits, though they did take out one of the drinks for themself. Honestly, he could swipe the whole bag, and King would probably shrug it off in amusement and allow it.
