Wyatt: I could’ve had a bath at home. Brynn: Tch, is not the same. Gael: I was beginning to think you weren’t coming back. [Brynn rolled her eyes, gesturing over her shoulder] Brynn: This is Wy-… Wyatt: Kaito. Brynn: [hums] Kaito, meet Gael.

Gael: Did you have fun mountaineering with my better half all day? Brynn: [scoffs] Gael, please-.. this is my friend, not yours. [Gael huffed, twiddling with the drawstrings on his trunks uncomfortably] Gael: So, what do you do? Wyatt: You already know. Gael: I do? Wyatt: I’m a waiter? Gael: Oh, right-.. is that it? Wyatt: That’s it.

After exchanging a few painful pleasantries, Wyatt zoned out. Gael had launched into a wearisome soliloquy about his career and various other achievements, none of which were particularly interesting or impressive. Brynn wasn’t listening either, her eyes glazing over as he wittered to himself. He’d address her occasionally, growing more and more desperate for attention each time his prompts to involve her fell flat. Intent on dropping hints about how wealthy and important he was, Gael’s one-sided conversation should’ve been deliciously interesting to pick apart, but Wyatt was too tired and hungry to think straight. He briefly wondered who Gael was trying to impress; Brynn, Wyatt or himself? His gut told him it was the latter, though he wasn’t sure why-.. he needed a full stomach and a warm bed.

Wyatt: I’d love to stay and be chatted at, but I have better things to do. [Brynn swallowed a snicker as Gael balked, halting mid-sentence] Brynn: I see you soon. Wyatt: I’m sure you will…

Gael: Well, that was rude. Brynn: You are rude, and embarrassing. Gael: Embarrassing?! Brynn: Why you think a stranger in another country gives a shit about you and your boring work is beyond my brain. [Gael sighed, trying not to feel too offended; Brynn was just tired…]
