As the newer recruit spoke, Jove simply allowed him to do so. He was never the type who was going to shame someone for being excited. If the conversation went on too long, or pressed to hard, he'd excuse himself for sure. But why crush someone else's enthusiasm? Sho spoke of wishing he could get stronger at a faster pace, and Seika merely sat himself down and remained silent, the blond knight could not help but squint and bring his hand up to his eyebrows. Shielding his eyes from the sun for just a moment, he looked over to the two.
It seemed Sho had remembered to bring sunglasses. The irony was that Jove usually wore tinted spectacles in his daily attire, yet now when he needed them the most, they vanished. It wasn't that he had a disdain for the sun, but rather it could be a bit oppressive for the unprepared.
"So what do you both think of Stella so far?" Perhaps his inquiry would come as a bit of a shock, but it wasn't as though he was opposed to conversation. Rather, he was simply one who preferred to respect the team in which everything was given. Had the new recruits curiosity been pointed at something other than the bounty, Jove would have likely participated much more. However, the fact was that there had been several members of the Knights who could not help but force conversation about it. For them it was a big deal, and for that he understood. Still, there was such a thing as overkill. Not that he blamed Sho, of course; the knight could not possibly know that other members of the knights were so obsessive over such feats themselves. At least Sho's excitement seemed to be somewhat self directed.
"It's a shame that the event will be coming to an end in the coming days." He meant it, for the most part. Sure he was ready to go back home, but there was still a part of him that enjoyed the time away from work.
