[It has been a rather discouraging day. Snake is at the mall for a book store, one of the few that carries many books in braille. However, the service there was negligible today, and they did not have the book. There was once again the dripping-with-condescension suggestion that he would much prefer books on tape, to which Snake said something appropriately belittling and left.
It is noisy in the mall. People's thoughts buzz around him, stupid, petty, and dull, and he is dedicating far too much thought and energy to maintaining the barrier between himself and that noisy world.
That is why he bumps into her. A somewhat amateur mistake, though perhaps easily written off by the white cane he uses to navigate.]
--Oh, excuse me. I apologize. I am afraid this is one of the rare times I am at fault. [He flashes an apologetic smile in her direction.]
