Re: After 6 PM, Opening Day.
"It's okay." Simon gave him a grin, patting the other man on the shoulder. "Like I've said before. It's not for everyone, so I don't mind if everyone 'gets it'." And his words were honest, as honest as anything he said.
When the attention was drawn back to him, Simon's eyes widened just a little bit, glancing away as he let out a breath. "Yeah. It's... going. I'm still kind of in shock about it all," he said, voice a bit on the sheepish side. He didn't say anything for a moment, then laughed quietly. "And... I'm not sure. If anyone has shown up, they haven't introduced themselves to me as someone from the building. It's not like I really know anyone by sight other than you."
Simon shifted his weight from foot to foot, letting out another breath. "Sorry. I'm still overwhelmed."
