so much life in one little world
Having no reason at all to think that the warning is meant for him, Ever's vision is suddenly and completely whited-out. He doesn't flinch or start as one might expect, but carefully reaches up to pluck the paper off of his face, studying it with a completely blank expression as if not understanding at all what he's seeing or what has just happened. He likely would have continued to sit this way, blinking stupidly at the paper, had Mateo not followed in the wake of his homework.
Glancing up at the older boy, Ever frowns, still silent. Where someone else might have laughed awkwardly or just shrugged off what was a fairly innocuous event, the young attuned seems extremely perplexed even now that the situation has been more or less explained. "I think it was the wind that carried it off." He offers, helpfully. Placing a finger in his mouth and then holding it up to feel the breeze against one side but not the other, he nods rather matter-of-factly.
"Is this from today's lesson? I didn't think it was due for two days?"
