Unsurprisingly, it did neither, and probably made him look more like an old fuck losing his eyesight. Not that far off the mark, unfortunately, but it was fine- he'd resigned himself to age a while ago, which sounded ridiculous, sure, except burning out tended to age someone far beyond their years. Four wasn't, in actuality, old, but he felt triple that, sometimes, even in the company of people not incredibly far off from him. When he could make an estimation of their age, at least- the whatever-the-hell drooling in the picture hall didn't have a discernible timer, and frankly, he really didn't want to keep walking down the corridor now. Drooling. He had an issue with that. He also had an issue with not knowing who the hell these guys were, a pair he'd never even seen before and yet stood in the picture hall like they belonged.
