Albel can’t decide if he’s surprised or not, that fate would hate him so much that he must once again encounter him of all people in this city. It was one thing when they were neighbors but this - this was abysmal. Atrocious. Entirely uncalled for. Those scientists are out to get him, clearly. And when he finds them, he’ll spare them no mercy.
Already the back of his mind can hear the sound - the way Pudding rolls off this man’s tongue, and how he holds absolutely no fear in calling him that, all topped off with his rotten smile.
Thus, futile though it may be, he entertains the thought that perhaps if he closes his eyes he might just disappear. Or maybe he’ll wake up, ready to be berated by Fayt for having disrupted his sleep once again. Because this is definitely a nightmare.
