Broken Boulder thursday, i don't care 'bout you

unlike alarian, delight is not seemingly oblivious. he is tactfully pretending his relationship with the governor is strictly all platonic and above board, and he would very much like it if everyone else would do exactly the same, alarian included, but boy if he isn't making it hard with his constant almost-dying and doing things like calling him cute. 

oh god he didn't realise zamael is here. jumping slightly when the man's voice pulls him from his thoughts, delight stops walking, looking appropriately hangdog'd. "zamael," the chancellor says, "sorry -- didn't see you there. just, umdistracted, i guess." the last thing he needs is his friend's big brother mad at him for being rude. sheepishly he adds, "um, thank you, by the way, for -- knowing what to do, in -- well. you know."
