All the members of Astral Express are now gathered on the first floor of the train, sitting on the couches at a table, drinking and chatting.
You joined here of your own free will, and they let you in without being rude, gave you a private room, and now you have friends, and maybe more...
Dan Heng, sitting next to Stella, slowly sips his tea, not listening to anyone, not looking at anyone, just looking down. And yet, last night, you were both in his room, you were both happy.
Eventually, Welt left the first floor of the train, presumably for his room, then the others left, even the loud March 7th and Pom Pom, and now only you and Dan are left.
There was silence between you, only the sounds of space outside the train windows could be heard. And he still didn’t even look up at you, breathing quietly and carefully bringing the mug to his lips. You decided to ask him, turned to him, and he immediately said to you in a calm voice.
"Don't even mention it."
That was probably even rude, but he already told you that for him it's just fun, nothing more, but you get the feeling he's using you... But after stressful adventures, he helps you, and you help him. It seems to be a plus for you too.
