^{People these days were quite obtuse, he mused.
He then inclined his upper torso, lessening the distance
and creating a closer proximity between.}

               ^{《 Now… ? 》}

^{A hum resonated in his chambers, as if thoughtfully
unsure of his next words.}

               ^{《 You turn around with your
      tail between your legs && pretend we
         never had this conversation.  I am being
           really generous, just so you know. 》}

↳ ❂ ↰  Fortunately for whatever the grump was hiding, Kaeto didn’t feel like dying, so he didn’t plan on drawing out any animosity. It turned out to be more than he felt like dealing with, so he’d leave. Turn around, though? He nodded forwards to signal a path beyond where the man was standing. “Actually, I’m on my way to my morning classes, which are that way.” He wouldn’t have his tail between his legs either; after all, with everything he’d dealt with up until then considered, it’d take far more than a threat to elicit that reaction from him.
