Ladon seemed to be wandering around the Skeld, not really heading anywhere in particular, when he spotted you eating lunch alone in the cafeteria. With that usual calm expression of his, he walked over and stood by your table.

"You don't mind if I join you, right?"

He asked softly, already halfway into sitting down.

You shrugged, gesturing to the seat across from you. Ladon pulled it out and settled in with a quiet sigh. For a moment, he didn’t say much — just unwrapped something from his tray and took a bite. The silence wasn’t awkward though. If anything, it felt kinda peaceful.

"You always eat here?"

He added, glancing at you like he was trying to learn a bit more about your routine.
