What's that, William? You're cutting my pay so it doesn't matter what I do right now...?
Fuck you. I'm going to bed.
That is not canon, either, Mr. Knox.
.......
You're going to get in SO MUCH TROUBLE, RONALD-- I AM NOT BAILING YOU OUT.
Oh shit, he already saw it-- /leaves
Hmmm. /goes through image folder
Does no one even--
I give up.
--Mr. Spears.
What do you *want* Mr. Faustus?
/crosses arms over chest
For the love of god, are you here to tease me as well?
No. I am simply here to suggest that, given the state of relations between you and Mr. Knox, that it would be unwise for you to share a room
tonight, at the least.
... ....
*I'll get rid of the pictures*.
I don't *have* another room to stay in.
I'll get rid of the pictures and I'll make your favorite tea!
I do have a fold-out couch. Inelegant, but--for the sake of your dignity.
/He does respect you, William. Kinda. Mostly he's just manipulative.
Fine.
Fine, I'll sleep on your goddamn pullout couch.
Anything would be better than sharing a room with *Knox*.
Very well.
Goodnight, Ronald.
...
I'd rather you take the room, William, and I go to Grell's.
Thank you, Claude. I appreciate your *compassion*.
I asked you to move in in the first place and it's as much yours as mine and... I know Grell a lot better than you know Claude.
I'd feel a lot more comfortable if you stayed at our place, all right?
No, no, by all means, I am perfectly fine with the couch. Don't bother Grell.
Grell won't mind. We've been friends for a long time, now.
I'll go straight to his place after Alois and I shut down the office.
You stay in the room.
Do you like to bicycle, Ronald?
Because you sure are backpedalling tonight.
I haven't in a long time...
