...It's him. It is that kid. And he's riding a pink lion. What is this kid's deal.

Gajeel has no idea, but he intends to find out. Which is why he's been following Steven for the past few blocks, probably completely inconspicuous with his hands shoved into his pockets, his mouth twisted into a scowl, and his face completely undisguised except for a pair of sunglasses.

Of course, on the other hand, he's kind of depending on the fact that Steven has never seen him out of costume. So, unless the kid does manage to recognize him, as far as he knows he's just being followed by some angry-looking guy with a dozen facial piercings and sunglasses. Not at all suspicious or threatening.
