Gyre wrinkles his nose unpleasantly as the blob covers the surface, wondering if that's going to ruin the bowl or something. Hopefully it's okay in there for now, but he does take a step back just to keep himself from messing with it any more.

"Alright, I will," he says, giving them a slight, apologetic smile. He's absolutely not going to force them to talk about this, and he retreats to the table again, picking his bowl up and taking another sip or two of it.

He has thoughts and feelings about the Protector here, but he's not going to argue for the man's redemption in front of Seven. If that man is to be redeemed at all, he needs to make sure it's as far away from them as possible.
