I won't ask the Admiral to change you back if you won't agree to it. But I think... that it is time to move onto the next strategy.

When you're ready.

As you say, sir.

[Sebastian could say "I'd appreciate if, in the future, you don't threaten even sarcastically to go to the Admiral over my head", but that would require an amount of emotional honesty that Sebastian isn't capable of without it being forced out of him.]

[It's meant to be a reassurance, not a threat, but Hakkai isn't sure of what it is that's caused Sebastian to become suddenly so noncommittal.

Perhaps he's just tired of the topic. Hakkai inclines his head after a long moment, allowing it to pass uncommented.]

[He was referring to 84 years ago earlier in this conversation, but no matter.]

Would you like more tea, sir? [he says, making no move to reach for the teapot. "Or are we done here?"]

It's very kind of you to offer. But no, thank you.

I'd like to speak with you again soon.

Of course.

I will be here. [Ha, ha.]
