[ He does pick up on the way Wriothesley's eyes dart everywhere. Neuvillette wonders about that, but sets the thought aside for the moment. There are more things to worry about than Wriothesley's eyesight at the moment. Like removing the chains, and calming him enough to get him out of the cell, and away from this entirely. Neuvillette isn't the best at handling these moments, either too austere for most people or intensely disliked by them for who he was.
But this is Wriothesley, his soulmate. Even if he won't mention it, or give in to the desire to scoop him up and flee, there is no one else Neuvillette would let do this. Even after all these years, he tries to be fair and just, applying his judgement in equal measure to everyone. But this man has always been a weakness for him. ]

[ Low, and gentle, a whisper of love in his tone. He'd never sound so open to anyone else. ] I know you have little reason to trust me but I assure you, our offers are genuine.
