"You're early."
Ethan scratched the back of his head, feeling a bit awkward at Eleanor's remark. He couldn't exactly admit that he came early out of fear of upsetting her, right? That wouldn't exactly help his image.
So, instead, he did what anyone would do in his situation—he made something up. "Well, you know," he said, forcing a casual grin, "figured it wouldn't hurt to get familiar with the place before we start."
Eleanor turned from the console, finally removing her sharp gaze from the screen to look at him directly. "That is a good attitude."
Ethan laughed awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck. Well, that worked better than I expected.
With Eleanor's gaze now off him, he let his attention wander back to the facility. The more he looked around, the more questions flooded his mind. This place wasn't just big—it was cutting-edge, packed with high-grade equipment that even the academy's standard training halls didn't have.
His curiosity won out. "Professor," he started, glancing back at her. "What is this place? I mean, I've been at Academy for a while now, and I've never even seen this building before."
What do you think?
