Lemm is struggling with the long silence. He looks away for a while, takes his hand away from the Geo to scratch anxiously at his beard and then pushes up from his seat and thinks, I'll just go. I'll make them leave, then I'll go for a walk. No I won't. Coward. Sit back down.
"It's..." he tries, painfully aware of himself and that he is now standing up as if he has something important to say, which he does not. "I don't need all the answers. Just enough to know who I'm making deals with. That's all I want." No it's not, really.
He does not sit back down now that he's already standing, but he does pick up the Arcane Egg (carefully) and wander over to the window with it.
No, it's not all you want. Shouldn't have said anything. You've curbed them before they even started, if they'll start at all. Take it back.
"Hm. Forget that. What I mean is I'll take whatever you're willing to tell. If you're not willing, I won't be paying you extra, but I won't be pressing either..." Shut up! Stop it.
Lemm takes a deep, uneasy breath and stares out of the window and makes a herculean effort to stop running his mouth.
