[He can respect that. He has a rather vague idea of what's possibly going on, but he doesn't want to come to a conclusion without all the facts at his disposal. He gives him a slight nod, once again patting his shoulder to reassure him that he'll be there.]
If you don't want to say, that's alright by me. All I can say, however, is that I'm not a talker, so if you want to speak about anything at all, I won't breathe word of it to a soul.
[A while later, and the water was already boiling. He took some time to prepare the tea, since it was the real deal, and none of that pre-packaged tea-in-a-bag crap, he had to use a strainer. He finally put the hot, brown liquid in a teapot, and served it in a pair of teacups, offering one to Peter.]
Here you go. Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. Always a good one to have~
[He sighs, patting him once again on his shoulder. Sometimes just being there is what helps.]
I know it might be a little hard on you, but if Matt's there, and told you about what happened, then that means that even if she's hurt, she must be getting some medical attention.
[Because otherwise, it might have been much worse aside from just being 'hurt.']
Just plain Muggle London. While I've been here for a couple of days already, I still haven't really gone out much because I've been trying to catch up on some things, but today's a good day as any to go out and just hang out.
I mean, we can go to Madame Tussauds, or the London Eye, which is like a Ferris Wheel. Maybe we can even go out and eat and stuff. My treat.
[Because if he can have his mind occupied with something else, then it will have been worth it.]
[Which, for him, seems reasonable.]

What!?
[He set down his tea on the counter. Yes, he's that surprised.]
Does this tie in with what you were asking about earlier?

But there's no reason for her to have gotten into a fight with a Death Eater!

All we can do is just hope that she gets better soon, right?
[Peter gets hair ruffle'd. He didn't even think about it, it just happened. Huh.]

[His voice is totally unconvinced, but he finally sips at his tea.]

It's about all we can do for the time being.
[A pause as he sips a bit more of his tea.]
Say, would you like to go around town today? Just to hang out and try to get your mind off things for a while, at least?

[He looks up at Shin with his eyes wide, slightly confused as to why he wants to hang out with a thirteen year old.]
