Sparks fly from Elexas' antennae, he bites his lower lip because he knows deep down what you're telling him is true. "I-... It's a necessary pretense. For the greater good, the means justify the ends, that kinda stuff. I know it sounds awful but uh.... someone.. someone needs to be in control, you know? .. and this is the best way to maintain that illusion.."
>'But just what kind of control are we aiming at here?'There's no question about it now. You've got a date with destiny and its name is the Marrotonin. Midoro's father is treading on the thinnest ice you've ever put a talking mon of the week on.
Elexas clears his throat and takes a step back, eyes shifting left and right. "Listen bub, I really should be going. I'm actually still on shift, and I've.. squealed enough already."
You stay quiet, instead keeping a trained eye on him, scrutinizing his gestures. "That look in your eyes.. Hmph.. I can tell you've got something heavy weighing on your mind. I don't know what it is you plan on doing, but just know.."
He leans a little closer and murmurs to you.
"They.. We've got eyes everywhere."Elexas immediately recoils and feigns a cough, as if to cover up that action. "Well then FRIEND, guess I'M OFF to FILL those HOLES I have SCHEDULED TODAY. Don't want to be BEHIND on WORK or anything! THANKS for all your HELP. /BYESIES/." he says, deliberately exaggerating his tone and toodle-oos for prying third eyes.
He leaves, and you let him go.
