“And what exactly are you doing out here?”
The admin’s voice was curious as he called out to the other man, yet still strikingly similar to the mildly authoritative tone he used while speaking to grunts -- with an added dash of jovial friendliness that he didn’t often use without ulterior motive.
The brutish Purugly at Cian’s feet served as his excuse to be wandering outside Evolution’s main headquarters in the middle of the night; the damn thing yowling like a common housecat until she got her own way. Being the only member of his team who he held even a slight amount of honest respect for, the least he could do was let her explore when she wanted. But the fellow admin standing only a few feet away with a pipe to his lips seemed to have no such reasoning. At least, nothing that he knew of.
“Since you seem rather keen on lurking about on your own outside, do you mind keeping an eye on Eiris? Not everyone likes to be out here in the cold, you know.”
