Honestly, he could completely ignore her presence even if he didn't have something else to do. He's pretty good at just staring at a wall without having to take in any of his surroundings. But books are more entertaining.]
[Armand doesn't respond to the touch, but he obligingly follows her words.
He brings her to his cabin, which he does use even now that he considers Gojyo's cabin 'his' as well. It can be useful to have have a room he can use for various activities.
He keeps it aired out, though there's a tang of blood - even if it's impressively little considering how much blood has been shed there. He doesn't have such a thing as a chair, unless you want to sit on one of the gently rising steps, but he has a bed that serves admirably.]
[She hasn't hit 'annoying', but the idea is enough to summon a flicker of distaste at the very idea. The Admiral is the Admiral, and there's no power there. Besides, if he wanted a different type of blood it's not as if it would be difficult.
But it's only a moment before he settles on the collection of plays to start.]
[Armand doesn't seem to pay her any attention, and for once appearances are accurate.
He knows how to ignore someone's existence when there's no other way to get rid of them, and so he simple locks her presence away where it doesn't matter.]
[Armand doesn't bother to respond or even acknowledge her actions or her words. She can do whatever she likes. He doesn't have to spend mental energy on it.]

And when she came back, she said,]
I would like it if we had a reading hour at your place while we're paired.
We can have it at my cabin too. We'll see about the entertainment system.

Come on, your place.

By the way- how are you for blood?
Re: After Pairing Annoucement
Date: 2026-02-24 09:27 pm (UTC)[It's not very appealing, which goes towards Armand's theory of the psychic element to feeding, but it keeps him full.]
Re: After Pairing Annoucement

No conjured blood from me then, if you don't want it.

If Armand doesn't ask anything, do anything, she'll just settle down to read for am hour or so, without being....hopefully annoying.]
