[Accidental voice post | A lover's spat | Action for Attleton]

…and I’d say, it just turns out I can’t leave you alone for five minutes.

[The phones tune in to the sweet dulcet tones of Cassian at his grumpiest. Kay had picked up his communicator from the floor after it was dropped by accident during a fight with Akihiko, and he accidentally turned on the voice option.]

Maybe if someone has gotten here sooner instead or away getting a coffee fix things would have gone differently.

[The droid snaps back, unable to keep the snappy tone out of his voice. He is rarely this confrontational with Cassian but he's in a terrible mood because the joints of his right arm seem to have been affected by Caesar's lighting attack.]

Maybe if someone had learnt to follow orders sometime within the last decade things wouldn't fall apart as soon as I take a coffee break!

[And off they are...10 years of petty grievances being dug up and flung at another as they work through their frustrations and feelings of helplessness in their very own way.  They're very loud and not very nice.]

[It sounds like she's speaking from experience but the last time Kay inquired about boyfriend she got a bit defensive. The last thing he wants is to anger someone else, he feels bad enough now for pissing off Cassian.]

Yes, they can be. It's like they think talking about their feelings would kill them.

That is why we must be better than that.

[Dorothy, you seriously have the silent judgment stare down to an art.]

I'll see what can be done.

[ She has lots and lots of practice with somebody far more stubborn than Kay or Cassian. ]

Good luck.

[It shows.]

Thank you.
