Worms after rain

Morgan had arrive a few minutes before the decided time. He had been fidgeting constantly and he wanted to be here punctually. However, he had now been waiting for around 10 minutes. He found upon arrival that the door was still open, despite it being after the shop had closed. So he decided to spend his time waiting by reading a book. It was clearly some kind of engineering book, and Morgan seemed to be in a different world while he read.

Morgan was focused on the book he was reading, he didn’t see Lucianne. So he jumped a little when she greeted him. He fumbled with the book a bit so he didn’t drop it, thankfully he succeeded. “O-Oh uh hey. I got here a bit early. Yeah.”

He laughed a bit awkwardly before he closed the book. He places it back on the shelf exactly where he found it, and actually treated it surprisingly gently. He turned back to Lucianne. “So yep. Hey.” He still sounded a bit awkward. It should be noted that neither of Morgan’s Regalias were there with him. Tom was still... doing whatever he did. Moony had decided to go back home.

It wasn’t too hard for Morgan to find an interesting book. He used to practically live in a library reading whatever he could get his hands on. Mostly non-fiction, but he read the occasional fiction. He kinda blinked with some surprise as Lucianne revealed she was late. Morgan checked the time on his phone and so it was. He chuckled a little. “It’s fine.” He shrugged. Although a pretty stiff body posture, the shrug was pretty casual for Morgan.

He thought for a while. He found the shop still unlocked when he arrived and decided to take a lot, but he hadn’t seen anyone. If he had, he’d have to guiltily admit he didn’t notice them because he was so focused on reading. Finally, he shook his head. “No, I haven’t seen anyone... I think.” There was a hint of guilt in his voice. He would kinda facepalm if he had actually just missed someone else being there because he was in his own little world.

Morgan rubbed the back of his neck a bit sheepishly anyway, but nodded. “Right. Yeah.” He wondered what Claudius was like. Honestly how Lucianne just talked about Claudius reminded Morgan how Cam would talk about Morgan himself. He sighed just the tiniest bit. Sometimes he hated his twin just a tiny bit.

He followed after Lucianne, and just nodded. He also started to realise he did a lot of nodding rather than speaking. He cleared his throat. “Yeah. That’s fine. I’m alright with stairs. A-okay.” He pulled an awkward smile. Despite his awkward attempts of socialisaction, he was pretty okay with stairs. A little out of breath by the top, sure, but he’d walked up and down stairs a lot when he still lived with the rest of his family.
