Vincent, meanwhile, stumbles up to the doorframe, managing to look bleary-eyed despite his eyelids being closed.

"...It's Seth," he mumbles, sounding vaguely surprised. Hard to tell if he's surprised to hear Seth at his door, surprised that he knows it's Seth at all, or just surprised because it's somewhere between two and three in the morning (which is generally a weird time for anyone to visit anyone).

Whatever the case, he's either oblivious or unconcerned about Irahl being extremely on-guard and ready to kill. In fact, he shuffles right up to answer the door. He only opens it about a quarter of the way, which... Given his sheer size, Vincent still blocks the view of most of the room anyway.

"Hey," Vincent addresses the visitor quietly, confused but delighted, before disappearing from view into what sounds like it might be a hug. "What're you doin' here...?"

Surreally, Vincent's voice also answers him from beyond the door, albeit with less inflection and more of the consonants that usually go on the ends of syllables.

"You got quiet."

"Nah, I was just... S'been a crazy day, man." Vincent's back reappears in the doorway, though his face is still partly obscured. "Come on, come inside."

"I won't," states the one who Irahl has hopefully remembered is Vincent's identical twin. Vincent's tone is immediately tinged with disappointment.

"Come on, Seth... Just for like, five minutes."

"I won't," Seth repeats. He doesn't sound mad, but he does sound very tired.

Vincent sighs. For a second, he almost sounds like he's going to try to argue, but he drops it. He also drops his arm, which must have been holding on to some part of Seth.

"Fine, stand out there. At least listen, okay?"

"I'm listening."
