Lexx turned away, angry at himself.
Chel leaned forward to give Maenae a comforting hug, “Stay here, okay?” She whispered, then stormed after Lexx. He couldn’t speak to a little kid like that.
“What is your problem, Lexx?” Chel whispered harshly. “Why are you acting like that?”
“Get used to it, Human.” Lexx grunted, keeping his gaze averted. He didn’t want to look at Chel. He had to do this. There needed to be some separation.
Chel didn’t appreciate being called ‘human’ again. She HAD a name and that just made her angry. “Oh,… we’re going through –that- again?!” Her voice rose in annoyance. “Lexx,… what’s wrong?” She reached out and deliberately grabbed for Lexx’s arm. Her fingers hit solid muscle and slid until they caught loose cloth. From the brief touch, Chel could tell that Lexx was tense for some reason. “Turn around and talk to me. What just happened? It won’t kill you to tell me.”
Yeah, you’d better tell her they’ll be able to hear everything on your ship from now on, just so she doesn’t give away anything you’ve already told her.
