[The few days following are not entirely pleasant for Ajax- he's still in a bit of pain, though the cryo slime is helping his injuries heal a little faster by having it ice him for small increments of time here and there- but what's the most terrible is Lumine avoiding him.

He understands why, but that doesn't mean he has to like it, sighing when he's unable to see her. However, he is capable of displaying a modicum of patience, giving her the space she wants for now and not trying to bother her, not yet at least. Though, something nags at him at the back of his mind, and he tries to dismiss it. But it's a clear message:

She's going to do something stupid that he's not going to approve of, he knows it. It's just a matter of time until it happens.

Ajax looks up from his laptop as he sits on the bed, working on a project for the company offline as Aether walks into the room.]

Not at all, haha. I suppose when you live in a magically-produced hammerspace such as this, things like phone signal and wifi can't reach it. It's like we're in a completely separate universe, connected only by the teapot itself. Speaking of which.

[He gives Aether a questioning look.]

I need to send this report off. Is...she in the apartment right now?
