So, as he walks across the plaza, he's a bit wrapped up in his thoughts. But he's not so out of it that he doesn't notice the way the usual crowds are acting a little oddly around that corner over there. Curious, and concerned there might be a problem, X makes his way over.
The crowd thins out the closer he gets, and it doesn't take long to spot the cause of the disruption to foot traffic. It's Axl.
