Sorry, um. Force of habit.

[ She's mollified by him taking a drink, at least. HE GETS TO ESCAPE THE FUSSING.

FOR NOW. ]

And I told you, you're not really asking for anything at all. I'd try to be nice to your friends even if I didn't know they were your friends! Despite them potentially seeming, um, odd.

'Odd' may turn out to be an understatement.

[It could be a joke, but it isn't. He'd said that they wouldn't hurt her and he stands by it, but...] I did note that you tend to be nice to - well. Everyone. You put up with me, after all. But I am asking you to be kind to ones who might not be kind to others. You should know. It is a favour. My kind takes those very seriously.

[phaseshifter]

I-- oh, I don't just put up with you! You're my friend!

[ She's taking the kind of tone that should really be accompanied by a slap on the wrist. ALAS, DISTANCE. ]

But I'll do it if it comes to that, I promise. Even if I still don't think it counts as even a little favour.

[Friend, she says, as if he'd never outright said that his kind don't deal in friendship. He should find it irritating, but... she may not know what privileges she'd earned with him by her agreement, but he does, and he won't forget.]

Thank you, Angel. [You might think a warm tone would be awkward from him, but it isn't at all. It's quiet, but natural.] In this case, I hope I can at least be a good friend to you.
