[ ugh — this isn't in Juno's nature, all the secrecy and masks, keeping himself in check. he knows himself, and he knows he has all of two layers: the cocky detective shtick, and everything else jagged and angry. if someone doesn't get one, they get the other. the anger doesn't wait until it's convenient, it isn't something he can swallow and hold onto. one way or another, everything ends in violence with him.
but he's also not going to be responsible for single-handedly screwing this mission up. ]
(I thought I was making it pretty clear that I'm not interested.)
[ so he starts to walk, and if Elliot follows, that's his choice. Juno can't stop him — would, actually, if he could. would threaten and snap until it's not just a hint that people should stay away from him and not bring this kind of thing to him because he's thinking about it enough already and there's only so much he can take. but can't, because they're playing at diplomats, at a close-knit congregation that probably wouldn't come close to blows over a personal argument.
Juno's simmering irritation is definitely at risk of boiling over, though, and even his mental communication comes with teeth. god, he doesn't even know where he's going, he just. he's a restless person by nature. when he gets upset it's only ever worse, and he just needs to be moving right now. ]
(Whatever you want to say, you might as well just spit it out. I'm a busy lady.)
[ he doesn't even know what it might be. and more importantly, he doesn't know why Elliot cares; doesn't want to look for fear of what he'll find. ]
