Riley was in that one park, sitting on a bench, swinging his legs like a little kid. Things had been uneventful, way too peaceful for him, since he had come back to Secrets Powers Burg from his planet. But no matter how uneventful it was in SPB, he far preferred it there when the only other option was his small one-government-ruled planet, where he was an outcast for befriending a human.
Lyle, on the other hand, was sulking on the same bench, slumped back and staring at the sky. "Everything here sucks. The sky sucks. The grass sucks. The people suck. Why do I have to be here with you again? I can't even remember."
Riley just waited for Nell.
