You could say we were all in a bad place... I really do mean it, you know...
[Trying to get that in, because he knows his word isn't good for much and saying 'trust me' is always a red flag but he doesn't know any way to say it otherwise, trying to communicate it with his eyes... somehow. If she can tell when he's lying, maybe she can tell from that?
A bad place metaphorically but also literally. It had puzzled him at the time why nobody seemed to be taking it seriously, seeing the full picture... then he got proven wrong, and now, proven right, at the exact same point. He wasn't thinking straight at the time...
That they've been here longer than in the game is something expanding in it's implications with that reminder that they really have known each other longer than their respective counterparts... it's something he does his best to mentally set aside, eye contact similarly breaking as he rolls the thermos between his hands.]
Well, if it's got your seal of approval... Does that mean you want some? [He's not making her test it... it's a genuine offer from someone who's had the scales tipped towards trying it, tipping his head towards her cup before picking it up to pour for himself.] Ahaha, good thing the cap doubles as a cup...
[This is a totally reasonable response and not him attempting to at least delay the question a little... which means yes.]
