"Once again, you lied to my face." - surprise me hehe gimme angsty angstttt heheh
"I withheld the truth purposefully, a prevarication, but at no point was there any mendacity shared." Keons replies casually, a shrug lifting unamused shoulders. "If you intend to castigate me, have the evidence to back up your accusations.”
With hands tucked nervously in his pockets, Nico stand a step behind Keons. “Nills is okay, I promise. And ListoSiden. Some experiments take longer than others…” bordering on two weeks was a lengthy experiment to continue, but everyone had been in agreement that this could throw the doors of discovery wide open if successful. Hence why they had waited until after finals to begin. Now that they were bordering the end of winter break, it was time for Keons and Nico to begin worrying about breaking the experiment early… they needn’t worry quite yet. Though hiding the true nature behind where and what Nills and Listo were doing was becoming difficult.
Nico continued, “Keons and I have been monitoring their progress and are closely tracking their health. As of yet, there is no reason for concern.” He smiles, an attempt to diffuse the tension clinging in the air. “If something were wrong, believe me, I would let you know.”
