And yet my statement is still a valid one.

[Not even denying it.]

I know. So ask it.

[X’rhun knows Ardyn well enough by now to know that he’s transitioning into being purposefully difficult. Likely doesn’t bode well.]

[verflair]

[ He knew this would be a hard sell, but here he goes. ]

Would it be alright if Arya stayed in our apartment?

[daemonized]

[The delay, again, is telling.]

You know, X’rhun, I do not recall ever having given the impression that I’m the affable sort, when it comes to suddenly sharing a very small living space with someone who is, essentially, a complete stranger.

[verflair]

I know you're not, and I know that I get away with more than most where you're concerned. Even coming from me, this is asking a lot.

I would not ask if I thought it would be a completely unlivable situation.

[daemonized]

Then explain to me how it might be liveable so I may consider if I want to consider it.

[verflair]

Ardyn… [ the sigh that he lets out is almost audible in the text. ]

Please. She is like family to me, and I daresay a Duelist after my own heart. If you get along with me, you’ll get along with her.

[daemonized]

[Sorry, dadcat. This is what you signed up to deal with, frustrating nature and all.]

That is no concern of mine.

[A cold reply, perhaps, if it were to stand on its own. But he follows it up with something else.]

I am not a man who is easy to live with. I am not a man that is always kind to those who would show me tolerance or even patience; you know that. Does she?

[verflair]

She will. I’d not drag her into this situation blind.

I promise you that I’ll do everything I can to ensure you have your space, and she hers.

[daemonized]

Then perhaps you should tell her first of everything that I entail, before you even bother asking after my own permission.

Come back to me with this after you do.

[verflair]

I am asking you first because I know that she will want to be where I am, regardless of what that might entail.

[daemonized]

You’ve read my request. Adhere to it, even if you think it’s only by way of humoring me. I’d like to know her opinion going in.

End of discussion! :)

[verflair]

Fine, fine. I'll let you know.

[daemonized]

Perfect! Thank you for being so accommodating, dearest friend.

[i’m sorry for ardyn]
