He cuts a sidelong look at Aventurine. HE SEES. He turns back to the clean bed he is putting a few holes in with the trowel and continues his work. Hmph.]
You should have stayed and found out. Instead, you left us both and lost your way back apparently.
[He sort of gasps in surprise and immediately brings his arm up to shield his face. He squints around it at Aventurine as he looks back, expression sour. HIS EYES.]
And the two you left us with felt awkward and strange. What were you even trying to accomplish? Wriothesley and I speak with each other just fine already. There isn't any reason you need to meddle.

[ Purrada, in all her trash cake glory, stares soullessly up at Essek with her gigantic eyes. ]
... Don't mind her. She doesn't get out much.

...Hello, Purrada.
[He is not sure if... he is supposed to pet...?]

Moving on, ]
Hey, you never told me how your stay at the hotel went.

But okay, as Essek gardens, Aventurine will pluck the sun hat from his head to inspect it. ]
I got distracted along the way. Besides, three felt like a crowd.

[ Flips the hat around in his hands and then sets it back on top of Essek's head. ]
Sorry to have made it awkward. I mean it. I thought it was a good opportunity to let the two of you get to know each other.
no subject
[He lowers his arm, but adjusts the hat just a bit. Thank you, annoying.]
We would have done so own our own time. Why are you so worried about it? If you don't want to see me, then you may simply say that.
[Aventurine doesn't want to jinx Nehan, so maybe Aventurine doesn't want to talk to him, or something either! How does he know!]

SHOVES THE HAT DEEPER ONTO ESSEK'S HEAD. ]
Wow, and here I thought I was insecure.
no subject
Stop that! This has nothing to do with being insecure. I'm not insecure.
no subject
Then what would you like to call it? Brooding? Sulking? Being a big baby?

[Aventurine deserves the dirt and also deserves to be buried in the dirt. He starts shaking the trowel at him pointedly and Pointedly.]
You are the one who abandoned me in a room with Wriothesley.
no subject
[ Takes a step back because he doesn't want more dirt on him!! ]
Are you really going to hold a grudge against a man who's expressed his sincerest regrets?
no subject
I did not say I forgave you yet. Why was it so imperative Wriothesley and I get to know each other?
no subject
[ :3 ]
no subject
Tell me, and I will forgive you.

I don't know how Nehan puts up with you. Fine, even though I know you are going to short me on an answer while reaping double the rewards.
no subject
[ While his own cat eats dirt in the background. ]
But since we've got a deal, I just found Mr. Wriothesley to be pleasant company. He's also fairly handsome, don't you think?
no subject
[First of all! Second of all:]
Why are you trying to set me up with Wriothesley?
[He is a virgin, but he is not stupid. And also elects to ignore the question.]
no subject
Because we're friends and all I want is your happiness.
no subject
There is no need for you to worry about my happiness.
no subject
What else am I do to with all this free time?
