[Connor knows things haven't been easy for Rich, and he knows their relationship has been... tense. Pretty much all because of the SQUIP's involvement, honestly. But maybe they can just talk without the SQUIP coming up. Maybe they can get to know each other better as individuals. He owes it to Rich to try just one more time.

He heads to where he knows Rich works, and he actually has a good reason to come here besides to talk to Rich, too. He wants to buy a violin of his own so he can practice at home. He finds Rich and approaches him, giving him a small, tentative smile. If he doesn't seem interested... well, he can just buy what he needs and leave.]

Hi, Rich. I'm looking for the violins.
