Because he had a hand in causing this mess. And when your lover dies partly due to your actions, you feel weird and confused and don't know how to deal with it—doubly so if you're a poorly socialized monster.

[ There is a long pause at that response. Then: ]

I see.

[ His tone is clipped and more than a little frigid. ]

I suspected that might be the case, but I appreciate the confirmation.

[brushoff]

Trust me, I'm as pissed about this as you are. Though I think the person most pissed about this whole situation is Johann.

[ a pause before, ]

Hopefully he'll learn something from this recent fuckup.

[anti_altruisms]

Hope springs eternal, I suppose, that children grow up eventually.

[ Still as cold as a winter breeze. ]

I’m not going to interject myself - but I will tell Florian something. Not much. But something.

[brushoff]

Feel free to tell him as much as you want, [ Dorian nods. There's another pause before, ]

This is what I got from Johann. Envy was the one who created that...whatever it was that knocked a hole in the ceiling of the dining hall. Johann's job was to kill two people. I know who one of them was—Nathaniel, which is fucking great. I'll message Lester about that spiteful little shit. But I don't think he knows who the second person was. Keep an eye out for anybody death-tolling in the infirmary with a knife wound to the neck?

[anti_altruisms]

The more I say, the more I’ll be interjecting my own opinions. And he’ll have enough to sort through without that.

[ It’s going to hurt Florian a great deal, and he knows it. ]

I have Florian in my cabin so you may have to ask one of the infirmary staff about that.

That it was Envy frankly isn’t surprising.

[brushoff]

Honestly, I'm not surprised it was Envy either. All he knows how to do is act out.

[anti_altruisms]

He’s a wretched little worm, honestly. If he wouldn’t simply come back and it wouldn’t cost me my position, I’d kill him myself.

[brushoff]

Oh, I like him!

[ to nobody's surprise: Dorian adores all the problem children. ]

Besides, if you killed him, that'd just make him more insufferable.

[anti_altruisms]

Good for you. If you bring him anywhere near the kitchen or inventory, I'm rolling him out in a cage.

[ Just saying. ]

I'm not planning to give the brat any of my attention. I have better things to do with my time.

[brushoff]

Why is that in every conversation we have, there's a moment where you say something that instantly makes me want to kinkshame you?

[anti_altruisms]

I’m not ashamed of any of my kinks so you’ll be sadly disappointed.

[brushoff]

On the one hand, let your freak flag fly. On the other hand, I'm terribly disappointed that I can't give you grief.
