"Do you not want my help?"

[emery-is-nowhere]

"I wouldn't mind your help, but you're under no obligation. That's all I meant."

"And if I promised you it would be no extra trouble at all?"

[emery-is-nowhere]

"Then I would have no choice but to admire your generosity and determination," he mused.

“But like… you are here. Where I live. So shouldn’t I be hospitable? I think Adam would eat me if I wasn’t.”

[emery-is-nowhere]

"Hospitable, I suppose, yes. But you don't need to go to that much trouble. I'm only stopping by to have a meeting with Finn, and it was kind enough for Adam to allow me to come here."

“In that case… I suppose you better make it worth my while.”

[emery-is-nowhere]

Emery laughed a bit. "Well, for your offer of a drink, I'll give you my full attention. Sound fair?"

[magnus-fucking-bane]

“I don’t see anyone going through any trouble.”

[emery-is-nowhere]

"You do too much for everyone but yourself," Emery pointed out rather plainly, though it wasn't meant to wound. "So, I view it as troubling yourself for my sake."

[emery-is-nowhere]

“That does seem like you’d be going to an awful lot more trouble.”
