You’ll be with Kay won’t you? Unless you have managed to lose your ability to speak since we last met, nothing is keeping you from making your opinions known.
[Though Aeron does get to approve of the choices in the end. He imagines the fuss Emery will kick up and smirks to himself. ]
Are you still complaining about that? You’re getting a professional instructor out of this. I thought you would be pleased about that at the very least.
[Aeron has to stare at the screen a moment, one finger tapping at his desk as he thinks. He’s not an expert on Griffith’s behaviour, but even he can tell there’s something…off.]
Is the change to your schedule bothering you again or is it something else this time?
It's just you're a huge clotpole and all, don't get me wrong, but I don't want you to die just because I've got no idea what I'm doing. I've never been responsible for anything other than a cat and I think that cat is more responsible for me

Wear a shirt if you want. I expect you'll be seeing those when you arrive at the store, too.

I should hope you weren’t planning to wear that to your job, Griffiths.

[ Sort of a toss up really. Would he? Maybe... ]
And I'm not a charity case you don't need to buy me clothes

I'm delivering on that now. Now that you work for me, you have a certain image to uphold.

Do I get any say in what I end up with?

And you wonder why anyone could ever think you suspicious, Griffiths.

[ Also a liiiiiiittle bit scary. He's never been responsible for someone's life before!]

If this is your way of trying to worm out of this, Griffiths, you are going to be sorely disappointed.
