[ It's... hard. Seeing it laid out so plainly. Harold's acknowledgement and understanding of how John operates. He doesn't like being known like this. He finds comfort in all the things they leave unsaid, just as much as the ambiguity cuts him at times. It's hard to read Harold's tone over text but he doesn't think he's being mocked or teased. But this is a conversation that would be impossible to say aloud. There's a delay before he replies; he wasn't really prepared for how personal this is getting. ]
