[He heads down to the library, seemingly still "fine." But there is a spider under his collar. She sits there happily, but he has half his attention on her, ensuring that she doesn't get scared and bite.
He walks inside, dropping off his books before he slides his hands into his pockets.]
[ Jon's going to be pouring out tea around when he walks through the door, and his own cup will be placed on the opposite side of the desk from Jon's. ]
If we are going to curse a bit, close the door, will you?
[He calmly takes a drink of his tea, though Jon might sense it, that small flash of fear and tension, expecting a blow or harsh word that doesn't come.]
[At this point, he's more enjoying the argument than he is actually concerned about winning or making his point. This is the taboo action he's indulging in. Arguing. It's become a sort of hobby.]
Harmless for you, perhaps. But that doesn't make it fun.

Re: after the breach
Date: 2022-11-26 12:39 pm (UTC)That won't accomplish anything. As I already pointed out.

[ The tea, at least, is served. ]
Re: after the breach
Date: 2022-11-27 06:32 pm (UTC)I have no opinion on it. It's not something I care about getting into the habit of.

Re: after the breach
