Virmad's dozing is disturbed by the signal from his lokwor. He manages to stir himself sufficiently to read it — Second arrest imminent. — then sighs and turns over to look at Teo. [if Teo is asleep:] He hates to wake him, but he firmly believes it’s rude to just leave, so, reluctantly, he gives Teo’s arm a gentle nudge. “Teo?”

[if Teo is awake/once Teo wakes up:] “I really hate to say this, but I have to go.” He grimaces. “Duty calls, I fear.”
