"'Morning, Ender." Valentine smiled as she pulled out the chair across from her brother and sat down, beaming happily, almost proudly at him. It really had seemed a century ago, and it was only her incredible sense of self-control that was preventing Ender from being thoroughly smushed right now.

Although the plate of pastries were a good distraction, too.

"Morning, Val," Ender replied. His smile didn't quite match her, but then his rarely quite hit his eyes, even after all this time. It certainly didn't mean he wasn't pleased to see her; that was obvious. "I'm sorry to bustle you right back inside when you probably haven't seen a blue sky in a while, but I'd rather not risk the rain."

"The food more than makes up for it," Valentine assured him, as she was unable to hold herself back and eagerly reached for a particularly tempting morsel. She fully intended to gain ten whole pounds this weekend, gorging herself on food that wasn't the spartan victuals she was used to. "There's a pretty good view from my hotel room, anyway."

She tore off a piece of the pastry, offering Ender a crooked grin before eating it. "Are you excited?"

If he wasn't, it seemed that Valentine could manage enough excitement to cover both of them.

Ender's answering expression inched into the wry spectrum. "Oh, I'm ecstatic," he said. "I'm graduating high school. It's everything a boy my age would want."

"You haven't been by to see us at all, and I know you know we came here yesterday, Ender."

Hello to you too, Petra.

Ender looked up. That was... not the guest he'd been expecting, but a fine guest none the less.

Double one, he amended, as he saw the shape of Suriyawong coming up on JGoB's door.

"I wanted to give you some time to settle in," he said.

"Yes, because what I really want when I come here is to spend more time with your imasen brother," Petra said, sinking into the seat in front of him. "You were avoiding us."

Ender sighed. "Of course not," he said. "Why would I do that? I haven't seen you in ages."
