Chocolates, and quite nice ones it would seem.
[ Oh good, that's an easy one. Finally. ]
Jester is a friend of mine as well. I will make sure that she gets it. I'm sure she will appreciate the gesture.

We come from the same place.

She does.
[ He considers leaving it, but his curiosity gets the better of him. ]
And how do you know Miss Lavorre?

I see. I'm glad she was able to make friends so quickly, though I'm not surprised.
[ Normally Dorian would be all 'blah blah blah, I never apologize for my actions!!!' but even he realizes that he's kind of got to super apologize for being a massive creep like that. plus, there is no way that he's on good terms with Essek at the moment and he kind of wants to remedy it.
urrrrrrrgh this SUCKS. ]
I doubt you'll think this is sincere but I'm sorry for my behavior when we last met. I still don't know what the cause of it was, but something happened to me that made me behave entirely unlike myself.
[ or, well, mostly unlike himself. ]

[ Not on good terms would be putting it lightly. When his device notifies him of the message Essek ignores it, because he's fully engaged in his notes. It isn't until he finally stands after a few hours to get himself a cup of tea that he notices it--and seriously considers ignoring it entirely.
He does read it though, because he's curious. ]
You're right, I don't think this is a sincere apology. But I do acknowledge that you may have been under some sort of influence. That does seem to be this place's standard method of operation.

What else is new.

Alright.
And what lie did you tell?
Alright.

No it wouldn't.
[ There's a bit of a delay, a bouncing ellipses as he thinks. ]
Are you contracted yet?

Are you contracted yet?
Unfortunately, I am.
Give me a month and a half though and I'll be all yours.
[ He suspects that a contract with Essek at this time would just end up with Essek deliberately trying to make Dorian's life a pain. Might as well enjoy that month and a half of distance while trying to sweet talk Essek into liking him again (while Dorian continues to make his Dominant's life a pain.) ]

[ Don't flatter yourself, Dorian. That's not at all what he's thinking. ]
And the name of your Dominant is?

No, that won't be happening. You tell me mow, or I do this the hard way, which I assure you neither of us will enjoy.
