She looked over at Norman as Ace gestured to the cage. "His name is Norman," she explained. "Do you like birds?" she asked. From the way he was looking at the cage it was hard to tell.

She shrugged. "I don't know about favorite, but I do quite like them. They're smart." Micha had trouble picking favorites, so generally she tried not to. She liked most animals, and most colors, and most activities- most everything, really. She couldn't just pick something and stay with it; variety is the spice of life, as they say.

Though people tend to be a different matter. She could stay around the same people forever.
Norman.

Quite a funny name for a bird.
"I don't particularly adore them, but I do favor them over all other animals. I suppose that counts for something."
Although a few have taken dumps on his head as he's been walking down the street, but Ace had the sense to separate those incidents from his liking of the birds themselves.
Besides, if he were a bird he would do the same thing.

"And that makes for another thing we have in common."

So talking to her first was definitely the best choice. Quite an interesting coincidence.
There was a low rumbling sound coming from the tracks and Ace stepped back from the bird.

"Seems as if the train is arriving now." he raised his voice over the sound of the whistle. "Would you like to sit together?" Especially since you could say she has no other choice.

Personally, he would prefer to sit at the back of the train. That way he could observe more people as he got on and off. As well, he wouldn't be rushed by a load of anxious people behind him. Ace liked to take his time.
