He was just kind of a laissez faire kind of guy and because of learning about life in a fishing village, assumed that life is difficult.
He nodded when she spoke of the time thief character. Where did you hear that information? It's quite interesting. He leaned closer to her, his ear cocked in her direction so he could hear better. He feared falling over, so he placed his hand in between them and it caused him to have contact with both his leg and hers. This bench wasn't the most comfortable, but it was suitable. He still needed to adjust his position from time to time to avoid cramping up.
Gwen noted his lean, thinking that maybe she wasn't talking loud enough. He probably couldn't hear her. She would be louder.
"It was in a newspaper." She informed him.
"Believe me, it's not easy to find." It seemed like they didn't really have that much information about it, just a few snippets over two newspaper articles.
She shrugged. It didn't seem to be bothering Ian very much, but he seemed pretty laid back. Gwen wasn't that way at all. There was a problem, and she couldn't stop until it was fixed.
"Do you think we should tell someone about it?" Gwen asked, remembering to raise her voice so he could hear. Wouldn't it just be easier if everyone knew ASL?
