If you wish to be alone, then I will respect that. [lucien knows that he's not exactly the kind of company people want.] Though if you think you're being a burden, then that isn't the case.

[handfast]

[ another long pause. ]

I don't mind. [ the company. ] I'm just not very good company right now.

[lucentia]

That's all right. I'm not particularly entertaining company any day, so I'm hardly about to complain about yours.

[handfast]

You think so? A lot of people would like being around a nice, polite guy like you.

[lucentia]

I've been told I'm quite serious and, at times, intimidating.

[handfast]

[ long stare





and then he reaches out to poke lucien in the cheek. idk how far away he is, hak will get up for this if he must. ]

[lucentia]

[wah]

—Hak?

[handfast]

Just making sure.

[ of what? ]

You've never struck me as intimidating.

[lucentia]

... And poking me affirmed this for you?

[handfast]

Yeah. If you attacked me, I might have changed my mind.

[lucentia]

Why would I attack you just for poking me?

[handfast]

Because you're intimidating.

[lucentia]

I don't think those two things are entirely related.
