Once the corners of her mouth started to rise, it was too late and the curls of her hair shook a bit as she had a good chuckle. [color=#9370DB]"Are there any other curses of getting old?"[/color] Gene asked him, the amusement plain in her voice. Whatever had tickled her funny bone, she wasn't going to share it - or maybe she really just was feeling the Lord Major's sense of humor at the moment. [color=#9370DB]"I've got to tell Georgie that later,"[/color] she then added, still giggling on and off. Nora just sort of stared at her for a moment, wondering if she was deranged. Yes, the Lord Major's joke was humorous but it hadn't been that humorous... Maybe it was an American thing. Nora then nodded at Lauren, having been essentially thinking the same thing. [color=00ccff]"Though..."[/color] she paused for a moment, not entirely certain as to how to phrase her thoughts. It was a notion that she wanted to put delicately, since it wasn't an idea she was entirely positive on but she was trained to deal with patterns and to recognize them. Beyond the artifacts at the Museum and their location of Egypt, there was one other common denominator behind all of these events. [color=00ccff]"... I believe that a strange occurrence will happen no matter where we go, as long as [i]we[/i] go there,"[/color] Nora hypothesized. This group of people was the commonality behind it all. Strange events were not just happening where they went - perhaps they were happening [i]because[/i] they went there. [color=00ccff]"Yes, I think she will be,"[/color] Nora then said honestly, though there was a bit of worry in her features. She did not believe in curses but she could not deny that strange things had been happening all over Egypt - supposedly linked to a curse. If the curse was real, then Lady Munn could simply be the next victim to it. Perhaps she had been poisoned rather than falling ill. She doubted it, but there had already been deaths in their group... She was beginning to reconsider the answer that she had given Lauren, but she trusted Lady Munn and she trusted George to care for her. They could not return to the ferry anyways. They would just have to hope things would be well and trust. Gene was rather pleased that the train was leaving in ten minutes. Ten minutes meant that they could get moving - that they wouldn't have to wait around for [i]ages[/i] before getting to the interesting things. She was rather impatient and easily lost interest/focus in things, likely attributed to her demeanor and apparent age. Taking her ticket, Gene clicked her heels together giddily. She had to keep herself from speeding on through, waiting her turn with the others and presenting her ticket as/if needed. She wanted to board the train and get moving already. There were so many things to see and so little time! Usually, time wasn't that much of a problem for her but today it was and every second was both agonizing and precious. Nora meanwhile gave Lauren a nod and slight smile. [color=00ccff]"I am well... How are you?"[/color]
