[ It's a little unexpected, but Larus doesn't do much besides frown at the way he responds before shoving his device into a pocket. Maybe it's not even that important, though he decides not to think about it. He'll let Dorian have his space, for whatever that might be worth, and he'll try to detach himself from the entire situation. From this place, from the taste of blood still lingering in his mouth.
He needs to get rid of that more than anything else.

He's only been gone less than an hour since he'd spoken to Dorian, and more than wanting to protect him from his own mistakes, he just wants to see him. Spend some time with him.
Larus pushes the door open and steps inside, keeping his gaze from straying towards that room. He doesn't want to think about that either. ]
I decided it didn't make sense to stay out, [ he offers aloud, addressing Dorian without lingering to speak to him. He needs to change his clothes first because, once again, he's covered in bloodstains. ]
