He pulled away then, letting out a sigh as he slumped back into his chair. This was never gonna go away, not that he expected it too but..things always led back to this. He did his best to try to comfort him over it, again and again. He just stayed quiet, not sure what else to say.

"Sometimes I still wonder if he was right about humanity. Gah!" He tried to put thoughts like that out of his head. There were plenty of good humns out there.

"He was right about some of humanity. Not all of it," was all he had to say before focusing on his meal. Seth was always a touchy topic.

Rick heaved a good, heavy sigh, and started in on his rice. "Sorry. I'm an X-Man now...I shouldn't be like that."

Rick nodded a bit. "So, wanna go somewhere after this?"

"We can just browse round the stores for awhile. Maybe see when one of the next parades or events are too. Anything's good as long as it's with you."

"Sounds good." He took out a rumbled up Tube map from his pocket, looking it over. "We can go anywhere--but I haven't learned much about what's at each of these stops."

"Ever sat down and looked at at?" He handed the map to Marcus. "Lines with everyone color of the rainbow, and then some. And I dunno how many stops there are. Craziness."

He took the map and looked it over. "Wow. There's alot of lines." He narrowed his eyes, looking at all the different stops. "So, lets pick a color and ride it for a few stops then head back to school." He finished off the last of his meal and pushed the plate off to the side. "Man! That was tasty."

"I have no idea how far out some of these go, though. Take the wrong one, and we might end up back in Scotland again," he said with a smirk, taking the map back. He then picked up his last rib to start working on it. "It is prety tastty. And cheap. Everything was the same price. A good place to remember, I think."

"Hm. Well, lets base it on time then. Maybe ride out for an half an hour then get off at the closest stop and head back here? Either way, it'll be fun. I don't think we're pressed for time are we?"

"Nope." Having paid for the meal, he headed back outside with Marcus. It was passing into evening now as he poured over his map. "I have an idea."

"We just need to get to the nearest station. I think I can get us to where we wanna go from there."

"Alright." He stood up, paid for both their meals then left the resturant with Rick.
