Aubrey actually looked kind of hurt, but she took the towel and began to dry her hair and face. "You're not a very nice host," she tried to say jokingly, though her tone kind of fell flat.

"Aye. we've go' tha' in common, don' we?" He grunted, a tentacle sliding from under his shirt to push a cigarette into his mouth.

"Uhm....well uh..." she pulled her clipboard up and flipped it open. "Speaking of that.. I, well, I just wanted to let you know that you were injected last night....."
She just kind of stared at him for a moment. "I'm sorry. I just felt you had a right to know."

At that, he froze, hand still hovering over his matchbook, "... What?"

"I'm sorry. It wasn't me - I promise...." She looked oddly... regretful, stepping towards him with pleading eyes.

"An'... wha' does tha' mean, exactly?" His voice wavered as he took a step away, pulling the cigarette from his mouth, his eyes wide.

"Sometime.... from now until the morning... you'll probably...change some more." She took another step towards him.

He stumbled, trying to back away from her, as though if she touched him, it would happen. "An' wha'?? Turn more... octopus??"

Aubrey gave an almost unnoticable nod, her eyes sorrowful.

"I'm sorry!" she pleaded, reaching out to put a hang on his shoulder. "It was bound to happen eventually...."

"DO ME A FAVOR?" He roared, his face an odd color in fear and anger. "BY TELLIN' ME I'M ABOU' T'... Bloody..." He shook his head, turning away from her again. Calm down, calm down! Don't let her see you panic! That's what she wanted to see!

"I"M SORRY!" she yelled out, suddenly breaking down right there before his eyes. She balled her fists at her sides sat heavily on the bed. Her clipboard fell onto the floor, scattering papers and files. Her shoulders racked in a sudden sob and she quickly covered her face. "I'm sorry I'm sorry..." she murmered, "I thought it would be better if you knew instead of it just...happening..."
