"You need to stop speaking about yourself like that. You're one of the best people I know." Gabriel said. He meant it. But Elijah's words were also very flattering. "Yes please," he said to the offer, a little too eagerly. Then he remembered why he was here. What a bummer. "Well... I suppose you have some work to do first." Admittedly, Gabriel did consider just forgetting about Anthony, and having tea at Elijah's place. At this hour. Just because it would be rude to reject the invitation. He could justify that. But then he would have to tell Elijah later, and the man might be disappointed with him. "I found a man in the streets, severely injured. He was beaten up. Brought him home with me. The doctor's seen him already, but I thought I'd report it..." Especially the fact that he had heroically tended to this poor victim.
