❛ what do you mean, he escaped? ❜ - Dottore / Kami

oh good, dottore ISN'T deaf. which means he'd heard the sixth the FIRST time he'd spoken up about an escaped prisoner. the balladeer still isn't entirely sure how this is his problem to begin, he'd simply just reported the mess to someone who would actually CARE about such a thing.

"i fail to see how this is my problem," scaramouche responds, almost dismissively. "i was simply reporting what i saw to you, figuring you or one of your underlings would take care of the problem." he COULD turn away, he could walk away even, but that would place him squarely within the doctor's irritation zone, and the balladeer has no time or patience for the doctor's wrath. well, PERHAPS he could test that theory a little. not this second, of course. seeing dottore lose his patience is always interesting; the balladeer does enjoy seeing what makes him tick.

"if you expect me to do something about one of your prisoners, it's going to take a lot more than bargaining or pleading. i just don't have the time to focus on everyone's projects at once. i have places to go, nations to visit, my own agenda to accomplish." maybe he could test fate here, put his own experiments to the test.

he turns to walk away then, but pauses briefly, looking over his shoulder and keeping dottore in his peripheral vision. "don't mistake my apathy for disdain, either. i do support your cause for the most part." scaramouche turns away fully now. "but you're on your own when it comes to tracking him and any other prisoner down."
