"Must be quite the bruise." I take my share of knocks in the typical course of work. So have the others. I've never seen a bruise that made someone falter that way. But if he's dead set on being secretive, it's not my place to weasel it out of him.

Maybe.

Unless Vaglass was related, but... I would have heard about something like that. "No, no problems. I had a long day too, is all. Thought I could use the treat. Sounds like you could too."
