Though maybe that was just for his younger, more interested self. A cache of painting supplies had caught his eye after a few booths of no luck, at first thinking of his mother and her artistic habit, but then thinking of the woman had randomly run into the memorial garden who had gotten him thinking on a few things.

Perhaps…

However, he was momentarily distracted hearing a nearby sound. “Did the Menagerie lose a creature?” he mused aloud curiously, his dark eyes looking cautiously around in case there was something to pay attention to. At least no one was yelling to get people's attention which was a good sign. Or maybe he had just imagined hearing something when there wasn't anything there to speak of.
Lee hadn't even realized she was hungry until the loud noise erupted from her stomach, immediately causing her cheeks to tinge pink with embarrassment. It was apparently time to stop for a food break before any more noises came from her. Her feet redirected towards the food vendors, but before she could fully commit she was distracted by someone asking if the Menagerie had lost an animal. Leela honestly hadn't known she could blush as deeply as she was now, a cool hand came up to her face to place against the red in hopes of making it go away. She took another step towards the vendors, hoping to make a get away before anyone noticed her but before she could take two she stopped.

What if someone else heard his question and it caused panic? Had she heard it and NOT known it'd been... well, her, she might have been a little concerned to see a snake or something slithering along the alley. Not that those could make a similar noise but... still. With a resigned small sigh, she lowered her hand and willed herself to look calm and collected as she sought out the voice. "No animal. Just... a stomach that needs food. My apologies."
