[coming down off the building with a neat landing, still keeping his temperature up]
If you wished to tear he and I apart, you have failed. Whether through the bonds of destiny or the size of my heart, I do not care.
Jason, will you aid me? Or will you refuse my request?

Absinthe: Very well
Where would you prefer to meet?

[now he's starting to notice it-- but at least he's not wearing the heavy jackets he would've been before, that would've made it immediately unbearable.
but he's keeping his calm.]
Fine. Whatever.
What's your request? "Leave him alone?" Or is it just the thought that I might refuse?

Glacies Nox Fleuret: Not at Pep. That aside, it is your choice.

Absinthe: In that case, I would prefer Baritones
Shall I be expecting you shortly?
Shall I be expecting you shortly?
Glacies Nox Fleuret: Yes, it should take only a few minutes.
No, any plea for you to stay away from him would fall on deaf ears. This is I already know.
You wish to protect others from him, do you not? I would have your aid in that.

[dropping his temperature back to normal then looking off]
Very well.
Very well.
[ there won't be another text, then, but if Glacies knocks at Baritones' door he'll be the one answering. ]
I inserted myself into that mess already. Did you really think I'd just ignore him after that?
[there was some furious decision making, but going to settle on just wearing a white dress. then, yeah, knocking when she arrives]
Thank you. For seeing me.
Thank you. For seeing me.
You are quite welcome, miss Glacies.
[ he seems to be in a good mood - - or at least a standard Absinthe sort of mood, as he opens the door and steps back for her to enter.
the clothes he's wearing is also a typical suit but - - it seems rather fresh as if purchased new. ]

For my sake, I had hoped you would. You could have risen above his level.
[keeping all of her glances to figure out how hurt he got very casual, but stepping in]
Have you told Baritones already?
Have you told Baritones already?
[ he's not visibly hurt anywhere - - Lucifel was thorough!! and there's a languid shrug as he opens the second door past their entrance room.]
I have no intention of telling them. They hardly need to know of my every feud and squabble.

[well, damnit, lucifel. following him]
You have acquired so many?
You have acquired so many?
I'm not that kinda guy. Not the kinda guy to go high when someone goes low.
[sighs then lightly shaking her head]
So, you have proven. Future is Now and Baritones often work together in games. Do not quarrel too much with your new unit.

[ he's going to take a seat at the bar -- gesturing for her to sit as well. ]
Oh, a handful. It's not a dire concern.

[does so, keeping a seat between them, tyvm]
It seems more curious than unsettling. I would worry that some of that resentment may come to bear against Baritones. More than your unit has somehow earned already.

Yeah.
I heard. But I assume it's because of Yvette. Not him.

Naturally, of course. Still, it is something to be mindful of.

[He's still looking at her, but now his hands are back in the pockets, face very neutral.]
I'll try my best to not fuck up basic unit politics, then.

I would like to think we've done quite well for ourselves in terms of our public image, lately. So it should not be too much of a factor.
