[Wellp. Ironhide can't really fit in a bathroom right now. But there's a delightful public restroom opening out into a park...]

[... that he's currently parked in. Enjoying some afternoon sunshine.]

[Good luck with that one, Henry.]

[no_ufo_ending]

_{[Henry comes stumbling out into the sunshine with his shirt tugged up over his nose. UGH public bathrooms...]}

[heavyweaponsbot]

[And there's Ironhide.]

[Just sitting there. As if in wait for some poor soul to come stumbling past unawares.]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[That is exactly what happened...that was, until the sun glinted off ironhide's shiny hood. Henry was used to dark spaces and lifted an arm to sheild his eyes...when he caught his own reflection.]

[...in a very familiar tire rim.]

[The hairs on the back of his neck stand up. The shovel in his hands almost slips. No. No, it's just...it's just some big truck. PEOPLE HAVE TRUCKS ALL THE TIME. ESPECIALLY IN POKEMON LAND AHAHA ha ha..ha.]</sub>

[Bathrooms are great places to hide from ghosts, obviously.]

[Well maybe not, but the restrooms in the Lavender Town radio tower seemed like as good a place to hide from a herd of very persistent ghost Pokemon as any.]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[Oh, God, there were monster headaches at the end of this hole what.]

[He clambers out and instantly holds his head, almost dropping the shovel he'd found.]</sub>


Auuuusshhfbuuuhhffmf.

[action]

[exeggutorhead]

[Turning around right away because wait, where did that person come from? ...Where did that hole come from?]

[What the hell?]

...Henry?

[It took him a second to recognize his 'Gear buddy in the flesh. Especially holding his head like that. He reaches out to shake Henry's shoulder a little, because surely that will fix this.]

[trapsense]

[so this is a girl, right?

you'll have to wonder though what she's doing in a male bathroom in a department store(?)

oops???]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[The moment he spots her he freezes.]

[DB oh god is this the wrong bathroom?]</sub>

Uh.

[trapsense]

[well no

she was clearly taking a piss

standing up

and with the right equipment.........]

...Hi? [oh wow this is embarrassing!]

[completingthesacraments]

[Oh hey, you're looking at yourself in the mirror oh wait....Behind you.]

Henry.

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[Henry stops making faces at himself and freezes up, almost dropping the shovel he'd found.]

[He wheels around and backs into the sink, shoulders hunching. He doesn't yell at Walter. He doesn't scream or even scold him with an accusing, "YOU."]

[He just swings the shovel with his noodle arms as hard as he can.]</sub>

[completingthesacraments]

[Shovel, oh no. I mean shooting him and hitting him before did nothing, but oh no, it's a shovel, shit just got rea-

-It just hits him and he looks at you Henry. Really? Did you think that was going to work?


Nope.]

[bluedespitebeing]

[Nope, this time he is definitely in the wrong bathroom, if Lisa staring at him from over at the sinks was any indication--which it should have been! But it's Henry, so who knows.]

Hen...ry?

[His appearing out of seemingly no where manages to distract her from her attempts to wash away the blood that freshly drips down her face.]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[...... D: ]

[Henry clambered out of the hole and rested his shovel against the wall.]</sub>

What happened?

[bluedespitebeing]

...Nothing.

[She looks away from him again, rubbing her forehead and smearing the red as if that will help.]

This is...how I was, before.

[Well, not exactly. But if Henry knew she could potentially turn into a monster at any moment, he might just pick that shovel back up.

Speaking of which.]

...What are you doing in here with a shovel?

[usedmask]

[GUESS WHO YOU JUST INTERRUPTED PEEING.]

JESUS! [He stumbles backwards, while trying to zip up his pants very awkwardly.]

What the fuck?!

[no_ufo_ending]

Oh, uh, whoops.

_{[ Henry gives the guy enough respect to look away.]}

You haven't seen a dirty man in a long blue coat that may or may not have had a spoon with him, have you?

[usedmask]

Holy shit, man. Can't even take a piss in peace anymore...

What? A bum? No, I haven't seen anyone like that around. Why?

[malignantmute]

[Jumping into holes?

Seems legit.]

...

[Come in or go back the way you came Henry.]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[Henry pauses at the edge of the hole, shovel in-hand.]

[ 8I ]</sub>

Hey.

[malignantmute]

...

[8I Hey.]

...

[He takes a moment to check for anyone else before giving a nod in greeting.]

...

[So... That's a nice hole you got there.]

[isthelittlegirl]

[There is a little girl looking at you.]

Who are you?

[no_ufo_ending]

_{[....that sure didn't look like a serial killer.]}

My name's Henry...where are your parents?

[isthelittlegirl]

Mommy's dead.

I don't know where my daddy is.

Do you know?
