"When, no, how did this happen?" Arla had the face of jealousy and shock as she watched her student sitting next to Sol and eating as she casually spoke to Ikaris who did the same on his other side, even Sol was a bit taken aback by her presence and how Ikaris allowed her to be this close when she had already beat her up and tried killing her in the past for doing less.
He also didn't mind though, Ikaris was interested in Dina's company, and addressed her as friend; at title he never imagined she would call anyone, so he was more pleased than he was confused.
What did catch him off-guard though was the fact that Ikaris had not called him master once, in fact she had barely addressed him at all, she just showed up each time with the brightest smile, blushing and embarrassed as she used his given name or simply engaged in conversation.
