[ Alacruun wasn't expecting her to get physically violent. It's... highly unpleasant. For a few moments he feels as if every nerve ending is on fire and then he sinks back against the bed, sucking in a great gasp of air as his muscles start obeying all of his commands again. A dark, angry part of him wants to lash out at her for that. She can't just shock him.
That would be counter-productive, though. So he just tries to focus on his breathing. ]
Adalia, you just shocked me-!
[ He sounds genuinely hurt by that. ]
This isn't - I didn't say that your anger was unreasonable, I said I wanted to wait until you calmed down...
[ He rolls out of bed, holding onto the nightstand for support. ]
Do you really think hurting me is going to help? You've gone from yelling at me to actually trying to injure.
