Zafika just looks a bit more guilty, they don't know how else they could make this up for Garrot than apologising! So telling them that if they keep apologising it'll cheapen it and ruin it, it's not really helping. At all.

But then Garrot explains that he's slipped up like them, and they watch him curl his hand into a fist. And, it's actually weirdly relieving to hear that even he's made this kind of mistake before, and more than just once. And imagining a full power punch coming from Garrot, yeah, that sounds about just as bad as being petrified. One is painful and one just, a horrible experience, really.

They tilt their head to the side when they hear him stifle a laugh, and they quickly end up having to stifle a chuckle of their own. What kind of kid drops from an air vent like that!? Hearing that he tossed her on the couch worries them for a split second, but, then they remember how much kids love being tossed. Hell, they even remember how much they loved that.

And then. Then there's those few seconds of eye contact as Garrot speaks again, offering to work on their, aggressive defence reflex, and they're too busy being shocked by the offer to realise that the six second mark is approaching, until it has passed. Yet Garrot is still okay, he's still able to look away from them. It was an accidental test, honestly, but it worked well in showing them that the glasses do work.

"I... honestly, I'd appreciate that. I can usually hear if someone approaches me, so... your clone just, appearing behind me, it did freak me out. But i can't just rely on hearing people... I need to break this habit, like you said." They give Garrot this tiny, understanding smile though. "But you don't have to do this to make up for losing your temper. I told you that you were allowed to get mad, right? And, I do know what Basilisk petrifying does, I know how awful it feels, you can't exactly think logically at that moment or right after it."
