He just looks at Dorian, a bit bewildered. "I can't touch him," he says and then laughs. The sound is bitter. "That fucker. Fuck him and his stupid commands. I wasn't going to get stuck there for two fucking hours this time. Just because he's throwing a tantrum."

[brushoff]

"Wait, back it up a bit," Dorian says, as he takes a puff on his cigarette. "He ordered you to not touch him. Because of your weird Hallenkind everything, now you literally can't touch him?"

[monsterjohann]

"Yes," he says because he can't think of any other way to describe it. "It's only happened once before. But I knew what to expect this time."

[brushoff]

Dorian can't help but frown at that. Oh he's got mixed feelings on Florian too begin with, but now?

"That bastard," he grumbles, reaching into his pockets to pull the cigarettes out again. Johann probably needs one as well. "What a petty nightmare. Oh, I understand being mad, but you don't fuck someone over like that!"

[monsterjohann]

"He didn't know," he says, quick to defend. But he does take a cigarette, lighting it with a flick of his finger.

[brushoff]

"He didn't?" Dorian pauses before pointing out, "Shouldn't we tell him that?"

[monsterjohann]

He shakily takes a drag of the cigarette, rubbing the bridge of his nose.

"I don't know. I don't want him to do it again."

[brushoff]

Dorian sighs, taking a deep breath before, "You know, if he doesn't know that he can even do this in the first place, he's going to do it again."

So yeah, they're gonna have to tell Florian about this.

[monsterjohann]

He groans. "Let me enjoy this first. He doesn't want me around. He didn't want to talk to me unless I told him what exactly I had done wrong, so - we wait."

[brushoff]

"I mean, I've got a good idea of what Florian thinks you might have done wrong," Dorian points out. "But if you want to hang out over here, drink margaritas for a week, and make him sweat, I'm fine with that."

A pause before, "Though I will be stealing you for a few more Enclosure dates."

[monsterjohann]

"He won't care. He'll take it as abandonment if I don't see him. But - for right now? I need to - do fuck all."

He flops down onto the couch with his cigarette.

[brushoff]

"He'll take it as abandonment because both of you are needlessly dramatic," says the person who's also needlessly dramatic.

"Want some margaritas after we finish our cigarettes?"

[monsterjohann]

"Can I just have the tequila?" he mutters, saying nothing about dramatics. Of course they're dramatic. He's never claimed anything else.

[brushoff]

And Dorian just happily hands him the entire fucking bottle.

"Don't do anything I wouldn't do."
