as I hold my soul all the music pours out
Falke knows it's a mask. He knows Finn knows he knows it’s a mask. But it’s a damn good mask and the Fixer would give him an A+ for it, if this were social survival class.
He also knows knows he’s done a bit to warrant a loss of trust from the Spyglass. They were done because they had to be done, but that doesn’t make it any less of a barrier between them. And when the goal is to not have a barrier between them, that makes this job rather difficult. Murmuring a thank you for the extra scone, Falke takes a long, assessing look at the man across from him and decides to do away with further small talk about the unicorn (though he would most certainly be giving the creature a visit soon, if it sticks around).
“I have to say that this is a remarkable change. You look better than I’ve seen you in a long time. How are you feeling? Do you think this change is the effects of the hotsprings’ water, or something else?” A friend, perhaps? A lack of responsibility, being away from Cian?

THE 'FIXER'
the greatest fear I've ever kept is dying with regrets
