[can Ryugotchis be lured out of hiding with the promise of Ryugotchi treats? he probably knows the answer to that.]
[the decoy's actually a pretty good trick that manages to throw Dave off the trail briefly, but there's one thing working to Ryuji's detriment when it comes to hide and seek — and that's the fact that he has a habit of standing out in a crowd. it's not just the bleached hair he's tried to conceal, it's the way he stands, it's the endless energy he gives off just by existing. it's a sense of familiarity and comfort in a crowd of merchants. a paladin approved gps gives Dave a leg up in finding his way back to him, of course, but ... honestly, magic or no, he probably always will.]
[so, it's maybe five minutes of looking inconspicuous before Dave's reaching over Ryuji's shoulder from behind, paper bag with Ryugotchi burger treat in hand. here you go, dude.]
