[later on, he's going to reflect back on this conversation and be amazed that they aren't screaming at each other. That they discussed this calmly, without anyone's temper getting the better of them - and that Erik actually acknowledged something they've never spoken about until now.

But - he said what he wanted to. He put the offer out there, and Erik listened. It doesn't matter whether he takes it or not, and - he feels like that got across]

That's fair. [he takes off his glasses to clean them, needing to fiddle with something] And - like I said, talking's optional.

[a pause, and he pretends like his glasses are suddenly the most interesting thing in the room] I'm glad you count me as - that.

[grandstanding]

I try not to spar on the ships. It's a bit hazardous for me. [Or rather, for him to do it. Especially now, when he's highly strung. He turns back to the table, beginning work on the third leg.]

[he makes a considering noise, putting his glasses back on] Mm, they're a bit too small for it. [mildly, and with the hopes that Erik picks up on the joking tone] And I'd hate to throw you and break something important.

[grandstanding]

Yes, that would be unfortunate. [He gets it... this time.]

[there is a god]
