Togusa is already expecting a little bit more out of some of them. Tim, Naoto, James, Souji, even Dante, are all getting quietly held to a slightly higher standard. With Tim's skill level, it's unfortunately easy for Togusa to forget his age. The way to combat that is to keep running into him in person, and not let him become a name behind a screen. But oh boy, does that sound like Tim's favorite thing to do.

Togusa nods, and he gets out of the car. The park is pretty busy, but he knows the place well. Togusa and his dog are regulars here. Togusa looks around at the area before he starts to move. Luke is at that weird in-between age, where it's harder to predict what he'd be spending his time doing. Maybe not the playground, but the bike trails or the baseball field?

"Where did he have you meet, last time?" Togusa glances at Tim.

Quietly, Tim follows Togusa out of the car and loops around the front to meet up with the man on the other side. He, too, takes a quick inventory of the place.

Luke seemed older for his age. Tim thinks, if anything, it would be somewhere not the playground with other children. He looks back at Togusa finally.

"We met at--" Tim pauses to remember. "An animal. No, animals. The penguin statues. That's where he said he wanted to meet, and then we would walk to the Retrospec building to get up with Micah."

There are penguin statues? Togusa gestures for Tim to lead the way, then.

But, more importantly, "Micah? Another friend of you both?" He tries to keep the question tone light, but he can't help his curiosity. Just how many people went tromping through Retrospec's lobby last month? It goes back to the idea that Togusa has said before: Retrospec is setting this all up like a game, almost like they want people to unravel the mystery behind it.

The kids on the playground definitely spot Togusa, but they keep their distance after some brief excitement. He sweeps a look over them all, but as expected, Luke is not with them. Take it easy, Togusa, Luke is still here. But he has to keep himself from trying to rush in worry over trying to find him.
