[Another scoff; he doesn't sound like that,]

I'm not sure they'd find it terribly funny-- if anything it's adding insult to injury, since they're still down an heir either way.

At best they'll say fine, have a nice life, and throw the note in the fire.

[cozen]

Eugh.

[ Why do everyone's parents suck so much? ]

Well. Would you find it funny?

[altusimperius]

[A thoughtful pause;

then, a very noncommittal:] I suppose.

[cozen]

I am not going to go through the trouble of making this convincing for a suppose.

[altusimperius]

I'm sort of busy right now.

[cozen]

Oh!

[ He sounds neither hurt nor more than mildly and politely surprised, because he's a professional. ]

Of course. Sorry.
