Ethan sat there, staring at Ruby for a moment. He listened to every word she spoke.<span style="font-style: italic">"I love your eyes"</span>she would say, to which he said nothing. It was one thing for him to ignore things that people said, or as his mother would put, 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all' though, he always broke that rule. Then he starred as Ruby had leaned over to adjust his collar of his coat. "I don't know if dashing is the word..." he stated, rather calm but also hinting a sly tone in his voice, more like a mock of Ruby's attempts. "I don't suppose you have anything better to do, mind you were whispering so loud, you may as well disrupt the peace of my sanity..." he sighed, resting his elbows on the table for a bit.<br/><br/>He knew how to play with people like that. If they do it to him, he may as well do it right back, right? But as he sat there, listening to Ruby mock the girl next to him. Listening to the things Ruby and Ericka were speaking about her. Though it looked as if Ethan here didn't care the slightest, when really, he did have a heart, it was just frozen after all. "And does that mean your outfit isn't wasted either?" he spoke, staring at the two. He closed his eyes for a moment, his pupils changing to their reptilian slits. Opening his eyes, a clear covering coated the eyes, like that of a snake, since snakes never blinked. "You seem more like a sssnake charmer, no?" he asked, as if mocking Ruby's attempts. "Though, it can't be helped, because you think everything can go your way with a bit of persssuasssion and mockery?"<br/><br/>His tongue slipped out a few times, as he stared at Ruby dead in the eyes. It's one thing for Ethan to act this way, but after all the crap given to him in the past, he will do whatever he can to fix his life and not make it broken. And that means towards his culinary partner over here. Though he knew that these two girls were not going to give up, he could sense it well after all.
