Glaukos was many things, team leader, a brawler, a bit of a bookworm. Social adept was not one of these things. Elise may of been lying to him, but he would never of been able to pick it out that Elise was lying, or the fact that she kept on giving dead give aways of being nervous, such as repeatedly touching her arms or knees. So that being said, Glaukos wholeheartedly believed in what Elise had told him. In fact, he felt pretty bad bringing it up, because his takeaway from this was that Elise's mother had died two years ago, and he was bringing back bad memories.

''I should probably change the subject. Like now. How about the weather? No wait, no just no. Uhhhhh....crap crap crap''

As the saying goes, Glaukos was sweating bullets. He started to look anywhere but Elise, finding the windowsill to be incredibly interesting all of the sudden. He would be staring out the window, but that in turn reminded him of the, ahem, bad memories he had thought he had brought up.

Glaukos was silent for a few minutes as his mind went on to over drive trying to think of something to say, to break the silence without probably further increasing Elise's discomfort. By this point the Gondola was passing over the commercial district. At some point this thing has got to reach the ground.... He had a thought however;

"Do you perhaps know of any bookstores in Vale?" he asked somewhat shakily as he hoped that he had switched to a more neutral topic.
