Before Ari even walked into the room, James was turning towards the door and just smiled slightly as the half-asleep girl entered. "Good morning, Ari." He nodded a greeting to her before moving away from Song, brushing past her with the same sensation that had passed between him and Ren.

"Ladies, I should leave you to your morning breakfast," he said, picking up his book and giving a little bow of farewell. "If any of you ever change your minds about actual talking, well... I'll be in the city. I really look forward to our future... conversations."

He then winked before grabbing a coat that was hung across one of the chairs closer to the door and walking out of the room.
