"Well, no, I-" Clearly, Garrot's caught himself in a trap he didn't know he devised. He lets out a snorting little laugh though, not letting it stop him for more than a moment.
"You've thought about punching me, and we've shouted at each other." Garrot nods sagely, aware of how starkly the statement and gesture clash. "So, I mean..." He looks away, down to the ground, then back to Gyre. "What the hell happened between you and the Princess, Gyre?"
Now that he's asked the question as directly as possible, Garrot shrinks in on himself, back to looking meek with wide, worried eyes as his hands clasp together and wait at his waist. Out of everyone for Gyre to cross, Luka Eutychia is the worst choice shy of the Protector, and they're pretty much synonymous. And the Monkey Knight didn't learn about this disaster firsthand, he learned it from the internet. But he can't figure out how to handle things until he gets the truth, and Gyre's the best one to ask.
