Luxanna Crownguard & Jughead Jones

What: A random encounter
Where: Central Park
When: Saturday
Warnings: Not likely, will update if necessary

Jughead had never been one to sit home and do nothing. Maybe it came from living in a one bedroom trailer when he was small, to leaving that behind and crashing in the drive in's office when he worked there. He'd always had a hard time sitting still, and he wasn't about to start now. After breakfast, which Alice insisted on preparing every morning, he'd packed a few snacks and a notebook in a backpack and headed out to enjoy the day.

He'd walked around the city for a while, and eventually made his way to Central Park. He'd never been to the real Central Park, so the Goodland version was good enough for him. It was eerily quiet, though, because he had a mental image of Central Park bustling with people most any time of day. There were a few people around, and Jughead was polite enough to nod to people when eye contact was accidentally established. For the most part, though, he kept his head down, his eyes and ears open as he walked.

Finding a spot he thought would be a good place to take a break and have a snack, he was prepared to more or less avoid the person already in the area. Until he saw it was someone he knew. He didn't know Lux well, but they were acquainted. "Hey," he said, giving her a friendly wave that was sincere and not born of social niceties. "How's it going?"
