Bad Timing

Jack: Well other than running, push ups and sits up I do Martial Arts. Since we moved a lot I had to changed dojo's a lot. When I was young I use to train at Mia's family dojo but that was a long time ago. My dad wanted me to learn self control so he kept me in it. What about you Joseph?

Joseph looked over at Mia before looking back at Jack, "Explains that a bit, well when I was younger my dad taught me how to defend myself. That was a long time ago, and he's kinda in prison. Turned out he gotten into some dirty stuff. So my mom had me go through therapy afterwards, so now I take a walk to relax. Who knew walking keeps you fit. That was pretty much it on my part." He relaxed.

Jack: Yeah who knew?

Jack was curious why Joseph was telling him such personal information so easily. Since didn't want to say the wring thing like he usually did, he tried to limit what he said. Bevil was talking to DJ Wally and got invited to hang out with him. Jack wondered if things were going to get awkward if the conversation continued and it did.

Joseph looked over at Bevil before looking at Jack, "Now he has backed up, can I ask you some questions, about Mia. You see, the blue lizard that was with me, is kinda shy. He also has some, feelings towards Mia. He's helped me with a lot, so I want to at least try and return the favor." He glanced at Bevil, than Mia. He turned back to Jack, "Unless she already has someone."

Jack froze for a moment as he was not sure how to respond to that question. He looked concerned since he honestly did not know what Mia or Lily were up to before he met them recently. All he knew was Mia and Lily were friends and she showed an interest in Jack's little brother. Jack looked at Lily for help since he didn't have an answer. Lily seemed confused by Joseph's question since he was asking Jack who was still new in town and not Mia herself. He looked at Aello who was enjoying her snacks.

Jack: Well to be honest I haven't been in town long so........... I am in the dark about what Mia is into these days. It would be better to ask her. Right Lily?

Lily: I think so too. Mia has unusual taste.

Then Aello interrupted them as she wanted to feed Jack something on her plate.

Aello: Jack this is amazing! Try it.

Aello then put a cracker with a shrimp Pâté in Jack's mouth. Poor Jack tried not to choke on it as he ate it. He covered his mouth just in case and when Aello and Lily seemed concerned for him. Lily then gave Jack a glass of water to help him swallow the food.

Lily: Are okay Jack?

Aello: I'm so sorry Jack. I just wanted to share.

Jack: I'm okay.

Jack took his time sipping water to clear his throat.

Lily: Sorry Joseph. Aello is new to human culture. As for Mia, well its best to be straight forward with her. She has odd taste in general and as far as I know she is still single.
