@khianat answered: "What are you smiling about?" (from theo to nine)
"Ah, you just seemed to enjoy yourself, reading. I thought that's nice," he tried to be more mindful with his words. He tapped his pencil against his sketchbook, looking at Theo. "Do you like the book? I thought it might be something you are interested in," he tried to make it up, for making their introduction so messy. "I also was excited when you were fine meeting up again," Nine admitted after considering how much honesty would be appropriate.
"It's homework. For my masters' program," Theo chuckled at that. He slid the book mark in place before shutting it. "Can't say reading about gravitation waves and the effect on light is a high energy hobby."
He tilted his head at that. "Yeah. Sure. You seem kind enough."
