What Happened

"Explain."

Nathan's cold but slightly angry voice floated. He seemed to be on edge as he narrowed his pale ruby eyes on me. 

No, wait. Why is he angry at me? I didn't do anything!

"The hand. It's only the hand," I rallied. 

I swear to Luminus, if one more person appears and asks the same question, I will riot.

Nathaniel's frown didn't fade even after that.

"Why did he–"

"Captaaaain~" Eon jumped Nathan and cut him off, clinging to him as he whines. "Captain, the general is courting Naaaads! What am I supposed to doooo? Captain~"

Nathaniel's lips thinned.

"... Courting… who?"

Oh, goodness. This is turning into a headache.

I suddenly feel exhausted. 

"It's me. I'm courting her." Lukas intervened yet again.

Nathan flinched.

"! You–!"

Like Eon, he was surprised to see him there.
