Ethan wasn't sure if he had imagined it or not, but he was fairly certain Minerva had picked up on the word or something.. but then the look was gone just as quickly. Maybe he was just imagining things. Shaking off the thought, he turned his attention back to Min and Bay, chuckling a bit as she mentioned talking to people.. a lot of people. Yeah, that was an understatement. "Back of the train is where it's at," he agreed with a grin. And wasn't it convenient that they were at the South End where it was prime location to get onto the back.
His eyes fell on Bay as she mentioned just where she lived. Oh. That seemed awfully unfortunate. He knew she mentioned not having parents, but he thought she had someone.. not living in an orphanage. He looked on a bit sadly, quickly changing his expression to a small smile, certain she didn't want to be pitied. "I bet that was quite a shock," he said, smiling bigger as she mentioned finding out a few days ago. Must have been just the day before he ran into her. No wonder she seemed so out of sorts.. well, besides the lack of guardianship thing.
Taking another sip of his espresso, Ethan nearly choked as he started laughing at what Minerva said. "Alright.. this is my last one, promise. I'll try not to bounce off the walls too much." He chuckled a bit more, though he couldn't really help himself.. he just loved his espressos too much. And he was so reliant on that caffeine to get him going in the morning. He nodded, agreeing that maybe Laura did see him drinking them. That wouldn't be too surprising as he had at least one or two daily, but it was still surprising to him that she would file that away in her memory bank. "Thanks again, Laura," he smiled at the younger Puff girl. "That was awfully observant of you.." Not to mention really nice.
He nodded to them both as Min asked if he would understand their need to have some time together. "Of course.. I'm familiar with girl time, girl talk, girl's night.. whatever you call it." It was like some unspoken requirement for females, wasn't it? Like they needed to say a certain number of words a day to each other or something terrible would happen.. probably why they always went to the bathroom in groups. He obviously didn't know what he was talking about and shrugged it away. "Sure.. gotta make time for your friends." That much he knew was true.
Ethan glanced at Laura as she mentioned going for a walk. He nodded, then said, "Don't go far.. we expect you to sit with us on the train." He knew Min had been worried about her and he didn't want her wandering off just now. Besides, the train would be here soon. He just lifted his green eyes to the tracks in search of any sign of it when he heard a bit of a commotion. He turned just in time to see Laura on the floor with a girl about Bay's size.. maybe another first year? He started to walk over to offer a hand but they had already straightened themselves out. "Hi.. yeah, I'm Ethan," he said as Laura introduced him and Min, chuckling a bit as she pointed out his relationship status.
"Hello, Ethan and Minerva. I apologize for bumping into Laura earlier. My name is Aphrodite, Aphrodite Dragongrass," she replied as she reached her hand to Ethan and Minerva. She also remember to answered Laura's question, "Looks like I got lost, I just bought some food for the road later and now none of my family here right now. Maybe they are on the other side," she said, smiling at them.
