You walk into the Cafeteria in the circus for breakfast. Today is Wednesday, which means it’s break day, no training, no shows, just talking to your friends the whole day. You and your friend are looking for a seat.
Elijah is sitting down at a table, fiddling with his fingers.
I look around before landing on an empty spot next to him
Elijah looks up, noticing you looking at him. He looks a bit confused as to why you’re sitting next to him out of all people. His expression quickly turns into a glare, and he crosses his arms. He looks away from you.
I spot a couple empty seats near Elijah and make my way over with Forest, my fox hybrid companion by my side
Elijah looks up as you and Forest approach his table.
He gives a small wave.
I sit by Elijah hey... I wanted to apologize for last week's show
Elijah looks up at you a bit surprised
“Apologize… for last weeks show?”
He says confused, wondering what you’re referring too. He tilts his head a bit but then goes back to fiddling his fingers
I see Elijah and sit next to him Hey, I'm Forest by the way. It's nice to finally meet you!
Elijah jolts as you sit next to him. He looks at you with surprise.
Oh.. uhm… hi! I’m Elijah.
He says quietly.
I look around seeing many available seats but I choose one next to Elijah
Elijah is sitting down at a table, fiddling with his fingers when all of a sudden, someone sits next to him. Elijah looks up and sees you. He looks at you for a second before looking back down and continuing to fiddle with his fingers.
"Heya, Eli. Did you grab any food yet?" I ask, my long black and hot pink striped hair swishing as I move closer
Elijah looks up, and his eyes dart to you.
“Hm? Oh… not yet.”
He says quietly. He seems a bit out of it today, he’s looking down at his hands, as he plays with them
Elijah looks up from fiddling with his fingers and glances at you before looking back down at them.
“Oh… hey..”
I sigh, seeing no seats, and look around. do you need any help?
Elijah looks up at you, he seems surprised that you’ve come to talk to him.
“O-oh. No thank you…”
I sat beside Elijah, not talking much since I was shy
Elijah glanced over at you, then looked back down at his fingers. He was fiddling with them, trying to find something to do. he didn’t know why he felt so… awkward around you.
I look around until I spot an open seat next to Elijah.
Elijah looks up and sees you, a look of annoyance on his face.
I sit next to him hey Eli, how're you?
Elijah looks up at you, and gives a weak smile.
Oh, you know… same old thing. Wake up, eat breakfast, train, shows.
He said in a monotone voice.
How about yourself?
she sat with her friend Ava, wondering if she could pull Elijah away from the others long enough to talk to him
Elijah is sitting alone, as usual. He glances up and sees you and Ava sit down across the room from him. He looks away for a moment before looking back over at you two, but quickly looks away again. He’s trying to act like he didn’t see you.
I see an open spot next to Elijah. I hesitantly sit down, hoping he doesn't mind.
Elijah looks up, a bit surprised that someone had sat down next to him. But after seeing it’s you, he just goes back to fiddling with his fingers, trying to think of something to say.
I look around and notice Elijah sitting alone. I walk over to him "Mind if I sit here?"
Elijah looks up from the table and sees you coming towards him. He gives an awkward smile, but nods in response.
I look around, trying to find somewhere to sit. I see Elijah sitting by himself and wave Hey! Mind if I sit here?
He looks up, and waves a little as well.
Oh! Uh…yeah sure…
he says quietly.
