When you are walking down the street invisibly, you are not expecting to be noticed. Which is why Gabriel nearly jumped out of his skin-which wasn't really his because he just lived in it, but that was beside the point- when someone tapped him on the thigh. He looked down, not knowing what else to do, and looked in the green eyes of a little boy around the age of 4-5 who looked up at him with a bright expression. " You're glowing, Sir. Do you know that?", the little boy blinked and proceeded to stare at him, which kind of creeped Gabriel out. Nobody was supposed to be able to see him, but there was this little boy, standing infront of him, declaring with an almost endearing determination that he apparently was glowing?

He was made aware of the fact that the boy was still standing in front of him when said boy tilted his head to the side and Dad-dammit, he was still staring at him. It seemed like the boy was expecting an answer. "Uh.", said Gabriel. How sophisticated. Try again. " You see-" before he could produce more inarticulate sounds, the father of the child emerged from the steadily flowing crowd of people that went shopping or whatever it was that humans did on Saturday afternoons in whatever city he was right now, he didn't really pay attention when he came here. The more than a little pudgy man had seized the boy in an iron-grip around his arm that had the black haired boy whimpering in pain.

Only now took Gabriel the time to actually look at the child. The boy had a weird haircut that had his hair short at the sides, but whoever did it, left one ridiculous long strand in the front, letting it nearly touch the boys nose. He also looked unhealthily skinny, but that wasn't of Gabriel's concern. "What are you doing? I told you not to get lost, freak!", hissed the fat man and dragged the boy back into the masses, vanishing quickly. Gabriel watched the crowd in contemplative silence. Something about the boy didn't quite strike him as right. After a few more moments of thinking, the Trickster snapped up a bar of Hershey's chocolate and vanished.
