( There's a little part of himself piping up, as it always does when conversations get a little too revealing, telling him he regrets this already. There were better, more filtered ways to say everything he said — or not say it at all somehow, even though his conscience overrules that last notion. Lance deserves better than that after what he laid out. Who would've guessed the guy that ghosted almost every romantic prospect he ever had after the third date apparently has some super fucking annoying sense of loyalty after all.

It just makes them unpredictable.

Old life flight habits kicking in. Time to get a little dodgy. He doesn't roll his eyes so much as cast them over to one side, both his demeanor and his voice a little dry when he drawls out;

( He's had more or less the same demeanor from day one up until now. Rain or shine, happy or annoyed, generally always — except for, you know, those extreme intense outbursts that happen once every five or so. He tends to tell himself something like that won't ever happen again, because he's gotten even better at locking himself down over time. To be fair, the last time that happened was when he watched Kyna die in the aerie, and he doesn't think alternate realities count.

How dare you possibly foreshadow a repeat. Besides, that's what drinking is for.
