"I will thank you, Mr. Kind, to not put words in my mouth." Ellis' tone is cold.
It was proving apparent that Seth was, at best, dangerously naïve in the matters of politics. And naïveté was an awful, awful color on anyone, let alone those who had to be aware of their own unique issues with control. Ellis had more words, he could always find more words, but why waste them on someone who was unwilling or to listen to them?
Ellis prepares the walls in his mind. I did my best. He couldn't be helped. If only his sire had better prepared him. Others. He was good about putting up walls around things that would have upset him back when he was alive.
