[That does nothing to change the flatness of Murphy's expression. If anything, it hardens. He stops walking.]
Either you're obsessed with my sleep, which is incredibly creepy, or you're trying to fish for something. Can't say I feel great about either, but giving me some clarity on the second might make me feel a little less like I need to make sure you can't climb in my window at night.
[He leaves it up to Felipe whether he takes the implication of that being something done to the window, or to Felipe.]
[ it's not bad as far as threats go. Felipe slows down too, realizing he can't get much further with this. should he just come clean? it might be worth it, to try make Murphy see the truth about his roommates, but it's also possible the guy is good friends with Aristaeus. he decides against it. ]
Sorry, I took the joke too far. [ an easy smile and he's heading out, but not before giving Murphy a meaningful look. a look that says he's just really into him and now he's kinda embarrassed he was caught. ] Must be the zadza. Making me act stupid.
[That catches him on the backfoot. He stays where he is for a moment after Felipe's gone, rewinding the conversation quickly, reviewing for missed cues, if he'd screwed something up by being an asshole. But no, it was weird from start to finish. If that was Felipe's way of hitting on someone, Murphy wasn't going to argue the self-assessment.]
Understatement.
[Very stupid.
He moves to head out himself, hoping he's left it long enough that Felipe's nowhere around.]
