"Hold your horses Woman we don't have everyone at this party yet," he said with a laugh. However, once he noticed Wan and Gracie did, that fact changed.
The reason that Gareth loved Gracie was evident as she ran to grab a present for Wan. It was her personal mission to be a wonderful person. It was one of the things that had drawn Gareth to her in the first place. Seeing his old friend be so welcoming to his new friend was wonderful. He waited patiently as she ran to get the gift, and once she returned he throw a megawatt smile toward Wan.
"We would love to sit with you!" As Gareth made his way into the compartment his first thought was the fact that he didn't come off in person like in his journals. Odd. But people were odd. He was especially odd himself, so there you have it. The second thin he thought about was that Gracie had a cat. A cat named Mula. While he had no issues with cats, he also knew that generally they had issues with him, as all animals did.
"Yeah, opposite Mula works." Especially for Gareth. He once again turned his attention to Wan. "It's great to meet you Wan! I'm Gareth! Though you obviously already know that. Or probably already know that. Or something. And now I'm rambling. So I will make up for the rambling with cake! I know you said you weren't sure on flavor a so I made an indulgent one for you. Tons of chocolate!"
