"Oh, hi there!" he smiled as the protogen sat down next to him on the park bench. At first he would have left it at that but he noticed her looking at the cookies he was eating. "Oh, do you want some?" he offered, placing the box between the two of them. "Please, feel free to take some." They were not too fancy, just chocolate chip with a few mini marshmallows for some extra fun... but sometimes the classics were nice, right? Also trying a more complex recipe would probably have led to problems with Mor'du, who almost burned down the kitchen while trying to preheat the oven - however he had managed to do that.
Anyway, back to the current situation! "I'm Hayden by the way, nice to meet you." he introduced himself because he felt like it was rude not to? Of course he did not want to pressure her into a conversation, she just looked like a friendly and interesting individual and he did not feel like she would be annoyed by it. (Not that his judgement of people was the best.)
(Aaah it's fine, I like that post! D: )
After the inital shock Hayden was back to his usual curious self. What interesting people there were! Although Squinch did not really communicate a lot? Except for 'bones'. What was that even supposed to mean? "Th- those are marshmallows..." he tried to explain, since that was the only thing that could even remotely be reminding the stranger of bones? Although it was still... well. Before he could think of another question the strange shadow man had already signed his goodbyes. Well... okay then. For a second he thought he might just have imagined it, but the crumbs next to him indicated something else.
