[quote=SonofJET]As Hákon entered the main hall, he spotted Jin, hurrying away, and Gabe, who watched on in silence. Figuring that something scandalous may be afoot, he approached Gabe and paused for a moment before looking at him and winking. "She seemed to be in a hurry... Is everything alright between the two of you?" Hákon asked, putting on his most disarming smile, meant to convey the message that he wasn't trying to offend the boy with his question.[/quote]

Gabe watched Jin hurry away in quietness. She said she'd needed that talk- but was it enough? Was it enough to help her overcome her fear of winter? He hoped so. He really hoped so. The two of them had a lot in common, being taken in by Batman and training in Gotham, both being homeless before they were introduce to a home, both being two of the youngest members of this new team, and the list goes on. That made their friend ship a whole lot easier. But he didn't think he'd have the energy to have a conversation like that again. 

When Gabe turned, he saw Hákon, walking towards him as he winked and smiled. Gabe wasn't expecting the smile... the wink, sure, but the smile was... rather disarming. He wasn't used to smiles... not from people he barely knew, anyway. Then Hákon asked if everything was okay between him and Jin, and Gabe realised, with a bit of relief, that he hadn't seen the tight hug before Jin jogged off. 

"Hmm? Oh, yeah, everything's good. She just hurried off because... Well, you know Jin, she loves her gadgets," replied Gabe, determined not to let slip Jin's fear of winter. 

Hákon seemed like a trustworthy guy, but Gabe didn't trust him enough to spill out his best friend's possibly most hidden secret. Especially not to a guy who had ice powers. Then he noticed a large, square parcel tucked under Hákon's arm, and curiosity got the better of him. 

"What's in the parcel? Is it for me?" he asked, jokingly, hoping that he could expand his friends list to more than one.
