João forced himself to smile, trying to share the tiniest bit of Aspen's amusement. Luckily though, she didn't insist much, and he could shrug casually at her question. "I've never thought about it." Standing here, learning about posts was very calming, actually.

The tip of his mouth curled into the smallest smile when she imitated him. See? He wasn't such a moody person, after all. It took so little to make him smile. If she didn't want to hold his hand, he would put it over the other one to guard the book better.

...Aspen was the fourth dimension of the world.

This time his mouth didn't fall open though, because... well, she made him remember perfectly that she was Aspen Odessa, The Lady of Surprises, so he just blinked away to calculate. After ten seconds' silence, he looked back at her again.

"That can be arranged."

His eyes were full of questions though, questions like 'Why? What happened to your friend--Max, was it? What about my friend Estrella, and West and your parents and--?'

She was heading fast towards covering also the fifth dimension.

Aspen remembered a day she played with him in the snow that had seemed VERY therapeutic to him. She was sure he hadn't forgotten it either, whether he'd thought about it or not.

He was DEFINITELY thinking about her want of him on the Platform though. He was THINKING over there, and if he'd stop being a twerp and give her her BOOK, she might be able to start learning how to READ those thoughts from his head. By the time she was finished thinking this though, he was out with an answer.

An agreeable answer, at that. "Then arrange it. I'll give you further instructions if you really do show up." That'd been easy, and she clearly had him on the brink of asking her more questions, so Aspen decided to use the tilt her way to her advantage.

First, she took her hat off and placed the big, sun-blocking thing on Joao's head. Then, quite carelessly, she rested each of her forearms on his shoulders, sort of giving him a messy, incomplete hug. She was sure she had his attention in any case. Did she have his WHOLE attention? Hmmm?
