[video] rebel without a cause

What an exciting week!

In light of all the discussion, Adstringendum, let's chat- who would you trust to nominate as ombudsman?

When people get anxious, nervous, angry or tense- it physically tightens their body, including their throats and voices. As much as we fight to control it, you can hear the change in pitch.

[Nodding again, breathing slowly to listen.]

Here.

[Replaying two of his own comments.]

It's actually easier, sometimes, to choose longer words when you're about to explode. Spread the emotion out over them, slow and easy, rather than one sharp burst of a 'no.'

I don't think I've heard you this upset in a while.

It bothers me.

Why?

[Not because he doesn't know, but because he wants to know what it means to Break.]

Because I have seen how very wrong it can go.

... I have too. So has the Colonel, even more than me.

[Al leans onto the table.]

Tell me more about the voices?

Here.

[Going back to one of their own threads- a fight about Lucifer.]

You give yourself away when your voice rises.

And word choice. I'm more aggressive and direct.

Yes, I'd noticed that too.

You're actually more elaborate in your word choice. It fits with what you said earlier.

I do get rather- precise, don't I?

You're always are, when you speak.

So we also pay attention to how people normally speak as well?

Of course. You can't see anything without a baseline.

It sounds like you'd spent time studying this.

I used to seek out fugitives, remember?

I still have trouble looking at you as a police-type.

Rogue spy turncoat?

Not a turncoat. You're too honest for that.

[Yes. He means that.]

But a rogue spy, absolutely.

But I am, technically. I'm an illegal contractor, remember? Wanted by the same organization I work for.

One thing happened before the other. And those were specific circumstances.

[It's hard not to reach for him. Al hesitates, staring at the tabletop.]

Hungry? I'm getting there.

Still lies, as far as they're concerned.

I could eat.

It's going to be simple, most likely. Sandwiches.

Lovely!
