when stars are gone, dreams will be cast out.
Paul is settled in the common room, finally. It's taken him a ridiculous amount of time to actually adventure out away from Toby's room, but here he is. He's sitting upon the couch in the common room, carefully tuning his violin

It's a particularly nice time of day, at least to Kale. As he's looking around as he gets closer to the Hotel, he stops paying attention to what exactly he's doing. The consequence of this course of action is to trip on an uneven spot on the walk and fall right into Ianto.
"Oh, crap! I'm really sorry about that!" he exclaimed as he got to his knees and began to pick up the myriad books and notes that had fallen out of his bag.

Stumbling to the ground, he blinks before looking at the scattered papers.
"No, it's all right, really." A small smile is given and he, too, kneels and starts collecting the papers and a book or two. "Are you all right?"

"Yeah, thanks." Kale is picking up the last of the papers and puts them in his bag. He then goes for his foreign language notebooks.
"Sorry, I should be paying more attention to what I'm doing," he apologized again. He notices a page that fell out of one of his notebooks; it looked pretty much destroyed. "Aagh, vöi rähma," he swears in Finnish.

Offering out what he has collected, Ianto glances down to the relatively destroyed paper.
"Sorry y'had to lose one." There's a momentary, small frown given before his eyes lift to the other. "If you don't mind my asking, what language were you just speaking?"
He's used to a variety of accents from his own team (his being a distinct Welsh), so the language switch and whatnot really doesn't throw him off.

"It's beautiful," she says by way of initiating conversation, nodding to the instrument.

"Merci," He looks up at her, smile broadening, "You like violins, then, oui?"
Don't mind his French accent (or any myriad of French lingo he might toss about), he's still getting used to this whole English thing.

And the piano, but her taste for the piano sort of left her when she came to the island... Up until Jack started playing it while he was staying with them at the barracks, so now it's distasteful in a completely different way- it makes her remember what she's left.
And she doesn't mind the French. Not in the slightest. "So you're from France?" She asks even though it's kind of obvious. Juliet was never very good at this whole conversation thing. Comes from so many years of being that mousey little woman who very rarely spoke.

Ducking his head, almost shyly, he nods, "Oui, je suis Francais. Je l'aime. Y'as-tu voyagé?"
It takes him a moment to realize he's actually spoken before he laughs a little, even blushing, "Sorry, sorry. Have you gone there before?"
[ooc: XD My French isn't too amazing, so if you're an avid writer/speaker I am sorry if I make a few mistakes here and there. Only in my second year.]

"I have a lot of work to do, lots of papers. Paper isn't very fun, I'm afraid." He smiles down to the boy, always gentler with those whom appeared younger.
He stops and crouches down a little, looking to the boy, "Shouldn't you be there, too? Wandering about isn't very safe."

He kicks lightly against the pavement with bare feet, Grover never could get used to the concept of shoes nor did he ever want to. "You shouldn't go walking alone though, s'what eeryone's saying. You should go walking walking with other things. And I'm good at keeping people safe, I keep Toby safe and RObby and Tabby and Paul too."
It's the one thing he's still got in this strange new place, his ability to protect people, keep hem out of harms a and he has no intentions of giving that up now.

Ianto smiles a little before looking up at him again, "Oh, are you? Well, that's good. I bet they're happy you do."
He has a feeling the Toby and Paul mentioned might be the two he's seen stumbling about before, but he can't be quite sure.
