*we can both be quiet for a few minutes!

then after a while:* What is it?

[bluefalconed]

I... have been gone for a time and I am interested in hearing how you have been.

[maleborgia]

That's right. *actually looking up from his book and setting it down* Are you all right? Shaun was quite concerned.

[bluefalconed]

I am fine, just ended up in a cave.

[maleborgia]

It must have been an impressive cave if it took you so long to get out.

[bluefalconed]

The likes of which you can not imagine.

[maleborgia]

It was not connected to the labs, was it? I'm sure you have heard... it is dangerous down there.

[bluefalconed]

I do not think it was.

[maleborgia]

Good.

*sorting through these books now instead of just reading them*

[bluefalconed]

And how have you been

[maleborgia]

Well enough.

[bluefalconed]

[DON'T YOU LIE TO ME YOUNG MAN]

Are you sure.

[maleborgia]

*WHAT. THAT WAS NOT A LIE. it was just not a real answer.*

What do you mean?

[bluefalconed]

I... heard about what had happened.

[maleborgia]

You did... I'm sorry.

[bluefalconed]

I do wish to hear about what happened from you, though I understand if you do not wish to speak about it.

[maleborgia]

...No, I do not. At least not now.

[bluefalconed]

That is alright.

[maleborgia]

*stacking books*

Was there anything else you wished to speak with me about?

[bluefalconed]

For the moment, yes.

... What are you reading about?

[maleborgia]

*tips one of the books so Malik can see the cover*

Canada. I live in the consulate and speak to several people who are from there. I thought I should take it upon myself to learn a bit about the nation.

[bluefalconed]

That sounds thoughtful. What have you learned so far?

[maleborgia]

Nothing much. Actually, I am still looking for texts to peruse later. If you ever happen to find a good one, I would like to know of it.

[bluefalconed]

I may have come across some in my searches for information about the modern day here. One moment.

[maleborgia]

*...

waiting, then.*
