"Look Sir, surely you can understand my concerns here - You turn up wearing all black, with a full face mask--"

"..."

"--Dubious documents and you walk like a soldier, least you walk like my old man used to and he was a soldier."

"Is there an issue with my papers?"

"Well, no, not exactly - But what is a dignitary for the Abhailen delegation doing dressed like you are?

I don't mean to be cruel, your medical documents do clear you to wear that... mask? To wear it to cover a facial disfiguration - But why such an eccentric mask - And Sir how in Sun's name did you manage to get your name officially changed to 'BlackBox' - Not 'black-space-box' mind you, or 'black-hyphen-box', but just 'BlackBox'?"

"...."

"And for a dignitary how come you have no staff? Well except that one woman, what is she to you by the way, a sectary? And how come you came in separately?"

"You worked out she's with me? Perhaps I should hire you..."

"Huh?"

"You are the first airport attendant to ever notice - And yes she is my... sectary."

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

"Oh really? Well you know we are no ordinary airport, best in the business Sir! And if I might make another observation, she is quite the looker--"

"Is there a problem with my papers or the conduct I present on the flight?"

".......No, everything is in order - You are here on state business for an undetermined amount of time, your face is allowed to be covered as explained by medical documentation, your name is legally BlackBox - And according to the documents all that is perfectly legal and normal and I should not be at all concerned."

"I'll be going then."

"I suppose so, my apologies sir but I hope you understand with all the wars this last decade, security has been increased you know? I have to check these things, just to be sure."

"...Indeed, four world ending conflicts in under 20 years - It is understandable."

"Four? Oh! You counted the IAFS - TSU-s thing huh?"

"..."

"Well ummm, you're free to go now - I hope you'll fly with Bhailien-Central-Airlines again on your next trip Sir."

"Good-Day to you."

"Aww shoot I still had one more thing to ask! Tch, he's already gone, man has a stride!

Hope I didn't offend him too much, got to stop following these hunches of mine before I get in trouble...again. Still wonder what his deal is, strange dude..."
