*She only recognized every few words, specifically the hieroglyphs that stood for a word instead of a sound. She furrowed her brow, as if looking hard at it would make the stone shift and translate. The fact that she could probably accomplish this was irrelevant; she wanted to figure it out or remain ignorant without artificial means.*
"Um. Hm. No idea; it probably stands for a sound. There are logographic and alphabetic elements in most hieroglyphs; I only understand the logographs. Most of the logographs stand for something else anyway, so I could be totally off."

Bubastis took a wary step back.

"Oh," said Adrien, the shape suddenly making even less sense than it had before.
This arrival alone managed to make Adrien look up and beam, leaning his folded arms over the class case thoughtlessly as he watched the approaching pair. Definitely didn't look like Adrian and Micaela's sort. Sort of the inverse of those two, actually, each one. The purple suited meets the sweatered.

Dan grinned as he hefted his shoulder bag up and remarked with both admiration and friendship "Adrian."

*Micaela waved a quick hello at them both before tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear and turning to frown at the hieroglyphs again. In some kind of rebellion, she had insisted on wearing grey and orange Princeton sweatpants and a plain black t-shirt.*

Adrian took a brisk step forward and embraced Dan very quickly, with a firm pat on the back, before turning toward Micaela.
"You've met Dan, I understand."
There may have been a very, very slight tone of accusation in his voice, but his smile remained blank and mild.

*She turned and nodded cordially.*
"I have."

Dan smiled "Of course, it's good to see you again Micaela" he was sure to keep his tone centered. If there was any hint of anything other than familiarity, he didn't want Adrian to sense it. He was kind of embarrassed, he was too old to be trying to hide his feelings from people.

Adrien was slightly intrigued. His eyes wandered over the scene. It did not look orchestrated at all. Everyone clashed so visually.
His eyes accidentally met those of the tall, rather plump girl Dan'd come with, and he smiled at her brightly.

Megan waved a little nervously, mostly with her fingers, and mouthed "Hi!" back.

*Self-preservation instincts dictated she leave the situation, go over to Megan and smile.*
"Well, hi!"

Adrien waved belatedly. He figured if she was doing it it was proper. His smile only faltered a bit, but it was back again shortly.

"Hi..." Megan said weakly, followed by a mumble of "Holy crap" as she glanced around her surroundings.

Bubastis rubbed her head against Dan's knees.

"Dan, this is Baillon, Micaela's assistant."
He looked over at Adrien and gave a very slightly warning jerk of the head to indicate for the boy to come closer.
