While Mahendra did take note of the conversation around Nora and her geometrical and/or mathematical symbols, he didn't enter it. Not as of yet at least, waiting for a better time to join in when he could perhaps add something fruitful. He was a geologist after all, not a mathematician. Although he did enjoy doing some doodling himself. But Mahendra focused on the other ladies in company, first Neema as she reentered sitting room, rolling in a cart with various pieces of food for the guests. At first sight it was the tea that caught his fancy, but a small piece of finger food that looked tasty. 

Mahendra waited for a moment first though, turning his attention to Lauren as she offered him to come sit with them, and then Mosi who answered his question. She had giggled at his little, witty comment, and made him smile a bit more as he felt more and more comfortable around these women. It took him a brief moment of ignorance, trying to figure out what states Mosi referred to, before he remembered what America was sometimes called. [Color=007236]"It would seem we might be on equal footing then, Mosi. I have never to 'The States', but perhaps one day. Perhaps you will visit India sometime later in your life?"[/color] Mahendra tried to strike up in conversation, waiting for his turn to serve himself with a cup of tea and a small piece of food. 

But the Bengali didn't sit down on a couch or chair as Lauren offered, but instead decided to do something he felt more comfortable - and in extension, relaxing -, as Mahendra sat down on the floor. Of course he chose to sit on a carpet, if there were any, but it had been long since he sat like he was supposed to. And in such company that he felt fairly at ease with, and with a good cup of tea, he thought it a good change. Looking up at Lauren and Mosi, he gave a smile of innocence as he took a sip of his tea.
