The dogs had given him away, but Will has been lost in a file — it takes him several minutes to stand and open the door.

ah.

well, he's not surprised. there's only so long he can really keep that quiet, given the truth of what it was. he swallows the rest of his whiskey in one drink and sets the glass down.

he raises the glass to his lips and takes a slow slip before raising an eyebrow slightly.

evangeline doesn’t move despite his approval. she watches 𖬺 waits. like she’s relearning an abandoned routine. a brief moment before her hands are sacrificed, pulling a cabinet completely off its hinge.

“we. don’t. hide. things.”

He's leaning in the doorframe with a glass of whiskey in hand, unblinking. If he's bothered by the destruction, it doesn't show. He tilts his head, a smile playing on his lips.

"Keep going."
