As he listened he tried to fumble for what he wanted to say when to his surprise she began chastising him for working too hard. Well, perhaps chastising was far to harsh a word, but for some reason he felt as though he were twelve years old being told off by his father for not doing something properly. He managed to avoid an outburst, instead deciding to talk about that later and focus on what he had come here to do.<br/><br/>"Well Miss, you were right about what I wanted to say, but I think I can add a bit, to flesh out the details as it were."

Assuming that's where I'd end up of course'</em>He thought
