[Yeah, Emil is a little thrown by this, too. He isn't sure what to do about this either - it just seems kind of... Sure, Syrlya is upset, but is he supposed to take sides? That seems-- Trahearne had a house dropped on him, too!
This is stupid. He makes a face, then--smiles, somewhat strained. The cat, that's good.]
Great! [nnh] I'm-- You're not okay, but... are you okay?
[Trahearne isn't sure if anyone's supposed to take sides, but he's looking relieved no one but Syrlya is angry with him. Then again, he hasn't run into Lalli yet...
He can't bring himself to smile, just sort of staring over at the books absentmindedly.] N... No. I... will be, I think, in time, but... no. Not right now.
[Hey, at least he can be honest.] Did he come to your apartment?

Heeee... did, yes. He's probably still there now. Lalli took care of that, mostly.
[Emil had no choice?? But okay.]
no subject
Lalli is a good friend to him. I'm grateful you both can take him in, despite such a small space.
I apologize our trip more or less went to waste. [The clothes... he still has them, but it sure won't impress Syrlya anymore.]
no subject
And there's that dismissive hand wave again.]
Stop apologizing! I came all the way here to see how you're doing, not harass you for apologies!

This is a bonding moment now.]
Well, of course we're friends! You're welcome!
