[Ajax doesn't really understand the meaning of flowers aside from some of the ones native to his homeland, so he doesn't pick up right away on her glance to the spider lilies nor does he get the reference in the letter, either. The anxiety he feels when she explains herself and then mentions a note spikes like crazy, and he feels his heart pound a little harder when she goes back to the table to pick up the envelope.
Her shaking hand makes his temper fly into the sky, already understanding from that alone that whatever is in that note terrified her to no end. His cheeks are getting hot with anger as he takes the note from her, and that only becomes worse as he reads it.
He takes his time, reading it slowly, then reading it again. Ajax is deathly quiet, and with no one to explode at, his temper boils beneath the surface.]
Did you report this?
[His eyes are boring holes into the letter, voice even but dripping with a venom that could kill with a single drop, not looking up as he looks it over again as he asks.]
