[ Diego, it seems, is one of the unfortunate people who happen to be outside when it happens. It's not by any real choice. Yeah, sure, if he hadn't just shown up here, he'd probably have still gone outside anyway because no one wants to stay holed up inside - so it's likely he'd be caught in it anyway.
But because he didn't have the choice, he's understandably frustrated that he's somehow ended up somewhere again, and this time, the weather is fucking shitty. ]
Hello?
[ It's all he can do. The fog descended quickly, and even Diego, who considers himself incredibly observant (thank you very much), can't see for shit in it. He tries to remember what he'd seen before it happened. He thinks if he just turns a bit to the left and walks, he'll eventually hit a building, and then he can find a door. Or maybe another person. So that's what he does, but as he walks, he gets a strange sense of something like vertigo. Like the white wall of mist around him is spinning with the world, and Diego finds that he has to stop every few steps.
Fuck all of this, he thinks.
But then - That has to be a person, there's no question about it. Someone vaguely silhouetted by the fog. ]
Hey - Hey! [ Pushing through the dizziness, Diego hurries forward, glad to see someone else. Except that they're ignoring him, and the closer Diego gets, the more clearly he can see. ] Hell no, this is some Klaus bullshit.
[ And the last thing he honestly needs to be dealing with right now. ]
➼ ii. to see or be seen
[ He doesn't expect to find anything in the Town Hall. He doesn't expect to find anything anywhere in this stupid town, but Diego isn't really the passive type, so he may as well go check it out. Imagine his surprise when he sees the shitty jokes. Honestly, he should have known that at least one his siblings would be kicking around. It's not as if they can catch a fucking break.
Diego takes the jokes down. He won't admit it out loud, but he actually finds some comfort in it, in knowing that he's not as alone as the last time they ended up somewhere they shouldn't be. And at least now he has something to do, and that's find Klaus.
Except now that he's taken the paper down, he notices something painted behind everything. Probably some sort of town symbol, but curiosity draws Diego back in, even despite the way something is making the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. ]
