[ they tilt their head. ]

What do you mean? Are you still mad about the fight? Look, you forgot your - I lost my temper, okay? I'm sorry.

[ktiseos]

You lost more than your temper, by my estimation.

[guestservices]

[ huh. they tilt their head the other direction, and then sigh, reaching up to scrub their face under the veil. ]

Agh, jeez, Emet, what do you want me to do, start groveling? You would be a stickler... Maybe I forgot something too, I don't fucking know, this week's been weird - I'm sorry, alright? Shite.

[ktiseos]

It has been a strange week, yes.

You did not seem to be feeling quite yourself, when you left.

[he didn't notice at the time, but.]

[guestservices]

Considering I was about ready to throw you out of a fucking window? Yeah! Probably not.

[ktiseos]

I shall consider it an accomplishment, then, to make you so angry you pick up entirely new vocabulary altogether.

[guestservices]

[ they just seem

very confused???? ]

Uhhhhhhhhh, o...kay? Sure, if you say so, there's never any point in arguing with you, H -

[ a beat. ]

...Emet-Selch. Shite. Go do your task.

[ktiseos]

Do not call me that.

[sharper, there.]

Do not presume to, after--

[...he exhales a rough huff of a breath, rubbing at his face with his good hand.]

[guestservices]

[ well. they're quiet for a second, after that, and then they just shake their head. it's not super noticeable, but for a moment, they seem to wilt a little bit.

.... ]

Right. Yeah. Sorry.

[ they lift their hand. ] I'll see you later. G'luck with your task.

[ktiseos]

[...he looks briefly uncertain, when they appear to wilt a little, but.

only briefly. he takes in a slow breath, then, shaking his head as he turns to leave.]
