All that time never truly seeing the things the way they were...

Scrooge walked away from the balcony room, shaking his head lightly and chuckling, faintly, to himself. What an interesting day this had turned out to be.

At a thought he glanced beside him, watching Louie out of the corner of one eye. When he figured they were far enough away from their other guests, he spoke.

"I never would've figured you for a romantic, lad. That seems more Huey's area than yours." A more defined chuckle. "No offense at tha', o'course."

Interesting was a good word for the day, all things considered - Louie was wiped, but not in an unpleasant way...? It was more of a cozy sort of tiredness. He'd been smiling as they walked, until Scrooge made that comment. That smile vanished quick, then - and he stopped in place for a bit, before picking up his stride again.

"I'm not," he said with a one-shouldered shrug. "I mean, they're my friends, and I've known for a while that they liked each other, so it's just... Kinda nice, I guess. But I'm not- I'm not really into that stuff, usually."
