Grimmsy responds via “bubble” (as before) as the man listens carefully, lips pursed and obviously thoughtful. The man has, very briefly, taken a very mildly serious tone; as if he’s trying to solve a crossword or something.
Grimmsy seems very solemn and serious, as if he’s trying to be commanding and fully expects the man to cooperate now. The text reflects this in that the letters are even more elaborately drawn than before; radiating an importance and semi-majesty that Grimmsy himself simply does not. The letters are not any larger nor do they in any way reflect anger. Grimmsy’s eyes have taken on a somewhat more commanding appearance; as if he fully expects his words to be heeded and taken completely seriously, though even so they aren’t particularly scary or even commanding.
DIALOGUE: “I understand your apprehension, Sir, but it is my duty to take you onward. If you do not come willingly I shall be forced to usher you onward via other means.”
