He had drifted back to his peaceful place rather quickly after mentioning Morag. Stephen didn't think much of the admission and even anticipated Stephanie saying something sweet, casual, calm, cool, collected.
Not crazy bat-shit insane! Stephen was jerked out of his vision hard and didn't bother fighting her when she jerked out of his arms the way she did. He was too surprised to react properly and simply laid there looking utterly and completely baffled. One dark eyebrow arched and he lifted a hand to rub his chin and then scratch at his head.
Stephen shifted to sit up and shrugged those bony shoulders.
"Sorry? I uh.. I mean, it just.. it's not official, she hasn't seen the place yet but.. I need a flatmate and she needs one where she can bring her piano and you know how I've always wanted a piano so really, it's kind of perfect and.. I thought you liked Morag?"
Merlin he was confused! Stephen shook his head and scrunched up his nose.
