Subway Rush [Afternoon; Frog x Zane]

The subway, as has already been told way too many times to still be humane to mention, Frog, the prince, never found himself enjoying public transportation.
However annoyingly unbearable the mass in the streets was, being stuck with the same in a small enclosed shaking quickly moving space of the inside of a underground train was, obviously, at least like three hundred fucking times worse, holy shit.

So Frog regretted his decision the moment he went down into the smelly underbelly of the city. Turning on his heel, he started moving back up the way he came from.

Yeah, the subway could be a sardine can on some days, that fact couldn't be denied. And as much as one could complain about it day and night if they so chose, it was still a valuable way of transport in the end. Not to get him wrong, Zane had no issue with some exercise and physical activity, but it would take ages to get from some places to other by foot. Man, the waste of time simply wasn't worth it. He'd go out to East Eden for a chill when he wanted more fresh air to compensate for the crowded parts of the city.

Speaking of wasting time, he had done it unintentionally this time, as he left home too early and thus was arriving at the subway quite a bit ahead of time. Well yikes, now he was going to have to wait here until the ride he needed came by. Guess better earlier than late? That's not how the saying went though. Well, he'd be damned. On more front than one. The second one being the fact that he saw a vaguely familiar face as he loitered around the entrance to the subway. Wasn't that the dude he had a random chat with not too long ago? Kinda looked like it. Hmm. Well, he had leftover time anyway, so might as well spend it on something, right? Walking closer to the guy who was heading out, he would offer a casual wave. "Yo, fancy seeing you again. Running away from crowds again?"

"Ga-" Frog jumped up when he saw someone he was almost sure he was supposed to recognize but, seeing as his social memory was comparable to that of a goldfish (or even worse), he couldn't pinpoint the face to a name nor an existence. "H-hi?" He responded almost confusedly, stopping in his tracks. He glanced to the sides to see if the guy was greeting someone else and had he just gotten himself in an embarassing situation by responding. Thankfully, there was no one around him that he could have been talking to. Unfortunately, that meant he was definitely talking to Frog.

Oh boyo.

"What do ya mean again?" Frog flicked his nose up and pouted his lips. Hands on hips, he looked the guy over. Vaguely familiar. Also a vaguely familiar situation... Nah, he still got nothin'.

Huh, the guy seemed confused to see him. Forgot him already? Well now, that was kind of a new one. People usually didn't forget him that easily due to his hairdo and whatnot, so this was a bit of a novelty thing. Then again, Zane would admit they haven't chatted for too long back then, and it had been a bit of a random encounter.

"Ya forgot me already? How sad.", he would state in a slight mock sad tone before offering the guy a light grin. "We had a nice chat one day in Vista Square when you were avoiding the masses of people.", he would add and explanation a couple moments later to see if he could jog the guy's memory.

The stuff the guy was describing...didn't ring a bell. Frog was known for his forgetfulness when it came to people. Especially when caught like this off guard by some stranger. Or well, err..not a stranger. Still, he was stressing too much, so him mind was blocking every couple moments. Connecting the face...the face looked familiar, but he couldn't tell from where. He might as well have just passed this guy randomly and somehow registered his face. It was a cute face, after all, he had to admit.

"O-oh, it's you." Frog lied, a droplet of sweat racing down his chin. "How nice to see you again. I was hardly expecting to meet you again like this in a crowd, ha-ha... r-right~?" He scratched the back of his head and glanced anywhere but at the man. This was awkward in every possible sense of the word. He hardly enjoyed it.

"You don't sound very convincing there." Zane would remark after a moment of observing the guy. Something was obviously off there, as it wasn't quite normal for one to be looking like they got caught robbing a bank right now or whatever. Yeah sure, some people were super awkward alright, but this guy didn't seem like it this much last time, and this kinda behavior was a little suspicious. Whether in a good or a bad way was something Zane couldn't tell as he wasn't a psychic, but that was something to find out eventually, right? "Something the matter?"

"Gggngh-" Frog tilted in spot, suspending himself in a sort of a grimaced cringe at his own incompetence, both mentally and physically. Has this guy already figured him out? Oh gee...he really should try to remember...but he just couldn't for the love of all which was rebellious.

"What do you mean I don't sound convincing~" Frog continued the faux politeness as he browsed his memories. The bagel shop...having to go to the toilet at the academy (which was disgusting and all public bathrooms are sinful), then the day before...maybe a bit longer...ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

"O-ooooooooh. You're that guy." Frog blinked and his mouth formed an 'o'. He nearly pointed a finger at Zane as his other hand rose up to cover his mouth in surprise. He couldn't say much more in this tilted state, though.
