Ah, good timing, I just finished breakfast--[and he's coming around the corner...though he pauses when he notices that Edward's dressed to go out. And he frowns] Oh.

...if you want to. [he swallows a bit, looking a little unsure] I'd hate to keep you if you're...busy? [his eyes flick over Edward again, how he's dressed to leave...and that scarf]

If you're sure, then I'd enjoy the company.

...thank you. [he smiles, a little, then--and goes to finish plating breakfast] Would you mind getting the orange juice out of the fridge?

[yep just going to get them settled with some basic breakfast. It isn't really anything special, but it's something.]

So, where are you headed, today?

[There's a fond smile that curls the corner of his mouth at that] Oh? What are you looking for today?

That's a good idea. I think she'll really enjoy getting to connect with you over that.
agoodname: ([02])

You want to be on her level. [he smirks a bit at that] That's very you.

I have no doubt that you'll pick it up. [he pauses, then, contemplating his toast for a moment...before glancing up at Edward, eyes landing again on that scarf--and his expression goes a bit troubled]

...Edward?

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-27 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
You'd...tell me if something was wrong...right?

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-27 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
...that scarf. [his eyes drop to it again, brow furrowed] It's more than warm enough in here, but I haven't seen you without it since last night. And it can't be comfortable. [he looks...pretty worried] Did something happen last night?

[there's a flicker in his eyes, then, shoulders slumping, clearly hurt]

...oh. [and Oswald is gathering up his plate, moving to stand. He pauses, just...looking down at the table] If...do you....[he swallows, hard] ....I'm not stupid, you know. [quietly] If you don't want to tell me, you can just say so. But...something happened. And pretending like it didn't, Edward--[he cuts himself off, swallowing] ...just tell me. I told you, you could tell me if I'm making you uncomfortable. If it's too much. So tell me, if that's the case, and I won't--[he stops again, feels like he's choking on his words, but he doesn't want any misunderstandings, he doesn't want Edward to leave] ....I'll stop.
