Mad Sweeney (i_haveahoard) wrote in we_coexist,

He fought and trashed against the squirrels, refusing to give in to them and just allowing them to crawl all over him. At least they weren't biting him... not yet anyway. "I got nothing to apologize for," he insisted, brushing the more away. It would have looked bizarre to passerby, a large man being attacked by squirrels in such a way. One or two squirrels and perhaps it wouldn't have looked so off, however an army of squirrels and one would have to question what the man had done to deserve such a fate.

Being in the presence of a djinn, obviously. But no one else would know that.

"I told you, I was just going along on my way." It never occurred to Sweeney that he might need to apologize for insulting her, all he was concerned with was the squirrels. Specifically, the one still moving around in his pants. He batted his hand against, not so much trying to kill the squirrel as trying to get it to stop moving until he could remove it. But there was no time to do that until the other squirrels ceased their attack on him. "Your squirrel would have run off if anyone happened by." It may have been true, it may not have been. There was no way to predict what the squirrel would have done had a child on a set of skates moved along the same path the leprechaun had.

He genuinely felt that there was nothing to apologize for and even if he had felt there was, it was unlikely he was going to apologize to her. Djinn were like that, all of them, quick to anger and quick to jump to irrational conclusions that everything was done as a slight against them. It was one of the many reasons he disliked them so much.
