"You realize that I also have an obligation to you, I hope," Hakkai points out; he's standing next to his chair, one hand resting light as a butterfly on its back as he watches Sebastian.

"Preexisting obligations don't invalidate later ones. So, although I will be gone for a short time, I would have to be both dead and abandoned by the Admiral not to come back. And I want you to know I do take my obligation to you that seriously."

Sebastian's smile remains fixed in place as Hakkai speaks, and for several long moments after he's done.

Hrrm. That level of commitment is... acceptable, perhaps. Even so, proclaiming something is easy; actually living up to one's promises is another thing alltogether.

After a few long moments, Sebastian's smile... doesn't disappear, but at least it softens.

"...Thank you, sir. I appreciate the assurance."

He's still angry, but. less so.

Hakkai ducks his head in a small bow. Claiming something is easier than living up to it, and while he's spoken to the Admiral already... he can only hope he won't be made a liar.

"I'll see you soon."
