When Elliot returned Cal felt a bit of relief... He had been just a little worried that the human would have tried to walk back to town or something after their argument. He noticed that he was being ignored, but he had expected as much and so he didn't say anything about it, simply closing his book and standing from the couch. "What would you like for dinner?" He asked as he headed to the kitchen, assuming that Elliot was probably hungry by now if he hadn't remembered to bring something with him to eat while he was out today... Which seemed likely based on his needing to remind him yesterday. Maybe it was a fairly pathetic gesture to offer him only food rather than a proper apology or solution... But as usual, Cal never seemed to have just the right way to deal with these things. But he was trying, as poorly as it must have seemed.
