[It's more a hum than anything else as he takes another sip of his coffee. This whole thing with Hythlodaeus is far from settled, but this is all it can be at the moment. Besides, he has the mess with Dirk to attend to as well.
He has to figure out a way to fix that mess, get them back together. Ordinarily, he'd allow someone uninterested in being with him go, he is not one to force these things, however...
However Dirk is different, and he knows that Dirk does not truly long for solitude, knows that if he were to respect what Dirk says, he would not be respecting Dirk's actual wishes.
It's just hard to make a case for it when Dirk's reasons for pushing him away are entirely justified...
As he thinks about this, he's left staring at nothing in particular, his gaze distant and not entirely focused, but there's certainly that solemn grief to his features that are all too telling of what's on his mind.]
