Ienzo could agree about it being safer avoiding most of the commonly occupied places. Even aside from the hazards, he much preferred the idea of as few people as possible seeing his face this week. Minus, perhaps, a few comments here and there, but that was another matter entirely. Unlike his younger self, he was less inclined to simply remain silent when a decent reason to not do so presented itself.

All the same, that wasn't the point of this meeting. He was here for no other reason than he quite simply felt like being here. If he happened to tend to the proto-pillow nest in the process, surely that was only to be expected, under the circumstances. But that was for later, after the initial pleasantries had been dealt with and so Ienzo offered a polite nod as he stepped into the room.

"I trust everything's been going well, lately?"
