“...YOU MUST BE JOKING.”
Tumblr media
Their acquaintanceship has been one marked with breach after breach of social contract between a potential employer and his future employee. There is a particular boundary that need not be crossed, even as the lines remain blurry in this school. No one tests Lorenz’s patience to such matters, on fairer days.
Today, however, day intent on making him fall to early gray hairs, every person that crosses his path is in possession of the ability to find their way under his skin, with specificity.
“Priam.”
As the man in question is, now, standing in front of him, presenting him the chocolate-covered treat without so much as a second thought.
“I will be declining. Do not take this as a slight upon your prowess, as a mercenary; one day, perhaps, there will be work in Gloucester with which you are specifically suited for. It seems as decorum is not one of those tasks. However,”
Lorenz plucks the cookie from Priam’s hand, snapping it in half—noticeably, the larger half rests pinched between Lorenz’s own fingers. “I will resign myself to the spirit, but not the act. Good day.”
