[he huffs out a breath. tasks are his personal hell.]
Fine. I have found you to be a reliable, agreeable person, and I have-- enjoyed your company. It is a relief to be able to discuss my own home with one who does not need to ask endless questions to understand it, and to know similar worlds must exist which are less likely to be the eventual pieces of my own, but... beyond that, it is simply easier to speak with you in general than most. I find your company somewhat comfortable.
...and I do not think I have been there for Lup enough, in the ways I have tried to be. Perhaps simply not in the right ways at all. I can admit that I am-- not particularly skilled, in dealing with others. But it seems as if perhaps you are capable of it, and given our apparent future ties, that is another form of relief. When Estelle told me she had taken you with her to investigate one of the staff rooms, I was confident I needn't be concerned for her well-being after, as well.
[ oh he did not expect it to be this long and the longer it goes on the more he looks away looking both uncomfortable and also blushing because he does not know what to do with praise that isn't just about his skills
help ]
...Mmm. Okay.
[ HE EXPECTS EMET DOESN'T WANT A REAL ANSWER *AND* HE DOESNT KNOW WHAT TO SAY, SO. ACKNOWLEDGED. ]
[it's fine they're both uncomfortable about this. he looks a little like he wants to die.]
Well. That is half of it, then. Jason's task ought to be taken care of ere the night is through, and then I shall see about acquiring one for myself before the week ends properly.
[ nods, but like. minutely. moving the neck is a nightmare. ]
Mm. Been to watch it. And copy it. [ amazing... they have four whole copies... all of us. but he'll start limping that way ] What was in theirs? Summary.
[ just like, a line or two, to make sure it's not. the same tape. ]
I should hope it would not have been the same for both of your groups, but-- it appeared to be the staff, gathering after... who I can only assume were the dead had evidently attacked one of them.
I'll ask tomorrow. [ he does not think. he will make it to that much tonight. and is in fact looking a little wobbly all of a sudden? it's fine. ] Can make it an exchange with her.

-but there should be enough left, this time, since Sebastian did not appear to need the help.

...speaking of the other group, you ought to ask them to show you what they received. I asked Estelle, earlier.
no subject
... They get a thing, too?
no subject
[hello?]
But- yes, they did. A recording; I would recommend seeing it yourself.
[it's better than getting a summary.]
no subject
[ whaaaaaat ]

[hm.]
Are you healed enough to go to the security room?

[ that's all he'll say because he'll get it out of estelle instead. anyway, here's a movie ]

...I-- do not know what to say of this. That is safe to say, anyway.
no subject
That's... Same. [ it's... worrying! it's worrying. ] Big boss isn't always watching, I guess.
[ but he will still. be stingy. on talking. for non-wound reasons ]
no subject
[...he shakes his head.]
Mm. I do not think the other group's tape will surprise you, exactly, but you still ought to see it.

[help. he reaches down to help steady him, with his good arm.]
...that might be for the best, yes.
