[That growl should be frightening but it's actually rather endearing. There's a lot to be said for someone large and potentially dangerous who you trust to be on your side.]
Those little fish. The sharp ones that could swim through the air. I was even with Gadriel, and they got us both. At least there's no shame in it, not if they could take someone like him down. [He laughs weakly.]
Ohh...come here? Please? Satchel's been clingy today, I don't want to leave her.
[ He sighs, feeling a flicker of guilt for not being there to protect Barcus, but he also knows there isn't anything he could have done. Not that it makes him feel better. ]
I'm so sorry. Nasty little things. [Okay, so, technically the fish got Gadriel and then an eel got Barcus after his massive protector and battle-partner went down for the count. It's all a little hazy in his mind, still.]
I think once we've all bounced back we ought to ask Saer Finnick to have a fish fry to make us feel better about it.

I wouldn't mind company, if you'd like to come have drinks and let Satchel sit in your lap.
[Perhaps also let Barcus sit in your lap. Cuddles would be nice.]

Of course, I’ll come to you. Where do you want to meet? You’re also welcome to come to the treehouse, if you wish.

I'll leave the door unlocked for you.

I'll see you shortly.
