Milo had never liked the Great Hall. It was an awful place, though he couldn't always put into words why, and when he could, it was a good idea not to do so out loud. But it also wasn't ever necessary for him to come in here, especially now he knew where else he could get things like food, and post.
But, being such an awful place, it made for a good testing ground, and that was why Milo inched his way through the doors today. Which led him to this sight. Which was one he instantly recognised.
Chess. Milo could play that game and play it very well, though he'd not yet joined the club on account of the fact that he was not much of a club-joiner or a group-liker. But now he was here, and now he was curious, and now he was encouraged by the fact that he didn't feel the need to immediately throw up and/or flee from the Hall, though his incessant blinking had intensified thirteen-fold as soon as stepping across the threshold. And so far the company seemed fine; today the presence of an Evan felt like a good sign and like balance and not an affront to Milo's overwhelming reluctance to share.
He stepped up and poked the centre one of the large black floor squares on the edge of the 'board' with a socked toe, looking at it but addressing Mr Carton. "Are you welcoming strays." If so, were the benches only for club members? Milo didn't mind sitting on the floor.
