[Elliot doesn't mind the staring because it means he can look at Leo's eyes. He's never seen a color quite like them before...they remind him of the midnight sky, deep and filled with stars. Of course, he doesn't realize Leo is staring. He just thinks Leo is excited to talk about books.]

I know you like to read about weird subjects. [Elliot's smile is teasing, but his gaze becomes thoughtful.] I...saw someone disappear not long after I arrived here. Do you know anything about rumors?
