Would not have been a bad compliment if he didn't doubt Augusts sincerity. So he would not respond to it as he reflexively wanted to, as it would likely be something along the lines of him telling August off. After all, maybe it could have been a compliment."Thank you." He said, and at Augusts next words, Bosco could only shrug,"I would, if I knew what I was looking for. Subterfuge isn't exactly a niche of mine. But, your clothes, your call. I just find it a little funny that they were willing to give yours back to you."
Regarding the question of thoughts, Bosco could have guessed he would have responded as such."I was made an offer, yes." He said with a frown, though the frown was not directed at August. "You sound like you didn't mind it at all. Must have been nice." Wiping some of the rain water from his eyes, Bosco sighed as he thought. "Oh, I could share, but I am sure you would it find it boring. It revolves around me believing that our homecoming will not be as pleasant as we hope, and not because the of the little job that the humans have for us."
Bosco's own words gave him pause. Certainly that wasn't the propaganda talking... Yes, Bosco was told a myriad of unpleasant things. But it wasn't the humans attempts at trying to put thoughts in his head. At least that is what he assured himself. It was just something in the back of his mind that was bothering him about Artemis and their return. But right now that was not a nice matter to focus on.
That train of thought ended soon enough, and Bosco looked back at August and smiled,"Well, it is not that important yet. Thoughts change depending on what we have to go on. Though speaking of curiosity, I think I am going to check out the rest of this place. Do you want to come with me?" He offered.
