I'll discuss it with him. I... intend to find out why that happened.
[ Ganymede's expression is open, honest as always. Equally earnest in his concern as in his distress. It... hurts. Especially after seeing that memory, the pain beyond words of what Ganymede has been through. Michel half lifts his free hand as if to wipe the last of the traces of those tears, but falters in his uncertainty, compromising by shuffling sideways just a little. If nothing else he can use his taller frame to shield Ganymede from sight if anyone else passes by.
He hates the lingering sense of wariness and unease pressing down on him, dread lurking like an unwelcome distraction at the corner of his thoughts. How much had Ganymede taken in or understood of that memory? Without context, what would he infer? Michel still feels ill at the thought, jumpy in his own skin at each lingering glance and unfinished question.
But he's unwilling to leave Ganymede like this, either. If he needs to run, he can run at any time. Simply log out. He's not trapped. He won't abandon Ganymede in his cowardice just yet. ]
...There are better places to speak than this. Let's go somewhere quiet.
