MK met Augustus St Cloud shortly after the events of “Tag sale, you're it”, when everyone was leaving after the brawl. Prior to this, MK was nothing more than just a test subject to Doctor Venture (Who didn't want MK to be exposed to the public, due to their at the time, Unstable extraterrestrial powers).
Billy Quizboy accidently made MK trip to the ground (He was in a hurry and therefore, didn't notice). MK acknowledges that it was an accident, thanks to him apologizing to them via telepathy, but St Cloud didn't see it like that, so he went to help MK get up (If it was a random person who tripped MK, he wouldn't give a crap and just kept walking, but I guess it's personal).
Here's a bit of dialogue for fun, bc I'm feeling it:
St Cloud: Whoa there, are you alright? *Uses his recently purchased girly magazine to lift MK up.* (He didn't want to use his hands. He's touch averse).
MK: Yeah, I’m fine. *They dusk the dirt off their pants* I may have a bruise on my leg but other than that, I'm okay.
St Cloud: *Scoffs* Some people. They really need to watch where they’re going, am I right?
MK: I mean, I guess.
St Cloud: *Takes a smoke, then observes MK's nose* Your nose is bleeding. *Pulls out a tissue out from his pocket and hands it to MK*
MK: Thank you, sir. *Wipes their nose* Umm, I don't know who you are.
St Cloud: Oh where are my manners. (MK stops where they are) My name is Augustus. That's all I'm going to reveal. You?
MK: It's MK. Just MK. (Chuckles nervously).
St Cloud: Hmm, MK. It has a nice ring to it.
MK: (Blushes) T-Thank you.
St Cloud: Say, aren't you the MK that's living below the venture compound?
MK: Yes? How did you know about that?
St Cloud: It's all over the newspapers.
MK: Oh yeah. Doctor Venture told me about that. You know, he never lets me go outside. Always telling me that it's dangerous and I might get hurt.
St Cloud: I do see that.
MK: I mean, yes , I tripped, but I didn't get killed. All I did was escape and get some fresh air. Fresh air, that's all. Is there something wrong with that? (Their stomach growls). Oh…
St Cloud: MK, would you like to join me for a bite to eat? My treat.
MK: Yeah, is the coffee shop okay?
Both MK and St Cloud head to a local coffee shop to eat some snacks and to get to know each other, not revealing too many details about each other yet. Instead, they both talk about their favorite movies and other things they both hyper fixated on.
Then, MK showed St Cloud photos of their artwork. Actual photographs of their art.
St Cloud: Very nice. Do you have any for sale?
MK: Not yet, but maybe someday I'll be brave enough to sell my pieces.
They both exchanged phone numbers and went their separate ways for the night.
Since that very day, both MK and St Cloud became close friends and they hung out at least twice a month from that day on. Each time, getting closer and closer, enjoying each other's company.
