[Nezumi had been mallynapped and that was kind of a dent to his pride. It was better left unknown what happened for his own sake and he'd come back a week ago, pretty banged up. But thanks to his pride, he'd hidden off somewhere. It wasn't anything life-threatening so he really hadn't needed anybody.

But now he's back and he needs to keep busy. He figures he'll read and now he's curious. Talking to people is a pain, but...]

Lucetians, a moment of your time. [He sounds pleasant for once. You catch more flies with honey and all.] What are your classics? By this question, I mean in literature. [Maybe this is too hard a question for some of the people here. Sorry, Luceti, he isn't very impressed with half of you.] Or just tell me a good novel from your world.

Action | Locked to Sion

[Hey honey, I'm home. And he's going to act like he didn't disappear and just make his way to his room. Not saying a single word. He looks fine anyway.]

[Calm, she has to be calm. It's no way to talk to clients that way, right? Even if it's Sion who asked for help and she suddenly wonders why he would. She takes a deep breath and manages to hold back any more of an outburst than that.]

You know, some of us are just trying to be helpful...

[Voice]

[asquiet]

But isn't being helpful usually good when the person specifically asks for help? I didn't.

[Voice]

[estelle_bright]

Well excuse me for caring. No one's going to find a way home by keeping to themselves.

[Oh boy. She doesn't think she'll like this one.]

[Voice]

[asquiet]

You're excused.

[He is so very sarcastic right now.]

[Voice]

[estelle_bright]

Grr... I have to ask.

[Estelle is really trying to reign in her temper here. Really.]

Do you always talk to people who want to be your friend that way?

[Voice]

[asquiet]

[The friend comment makes him laugh.]

You don't even know a thing about me and you want to be my friend?

[Voice]

[estelle_bright]

Whether or not I do, is that any way to treat people who are being nice to you?

[Even if he's laughing, she's still frustrated!]

[Voice]

[asquiet]

When they ask me personal questions, yes.

[Voice]

[estelle_bright]

Since when is 'were you kidnapped' a personal question?!

It could happen again, or to someone else!

[Voice]

[asquiet]

You also asked if I wandered off. It doesn't matter why I left. It just matters that I'm back and obviously in good health.

[Voice]

[estelle_bright]

...

[Oh, he has a point there. You win this round, mister.]

That's true.

[Voice]

[asquiet]

Now don't we just feel silly?

[Voice]

[estelle_bright]

No, I don't! Because I was just trying to be helpful and look out for someone because your friend cared! Most people would say thank you! You should tell him that for just looking out for you!

[Voice]

[asquiet]

I should thank him for doing something I asked him not to?

[How frustrating! Why does this conversation go in circles?? Estelle makes a small noise of complaint, before answering.]

Nevermind.
