[ "Tetchy" doesn't even begin to cover it, Rhys thinks, but he's willing to let it slide because Kanda just seems to be...like that, even on the best of days. He got paid for his work and Rhys really wasn't trying to stiff him or anything on collection. He honestly really has no idea why he'd be so upset aside from the hug and that was one hundred percent platonic, if a little needy on his end.

He doesn't get a lot of hugs alright?? Or attention in general. ]

It's not...top secret but it's kinda something I want to keep to myself? No--no offense. It's just a Thing. Y'know? [ Rhys brings a hand up to tap the data port on the side of his head with one finger, shrugging in apology. ]

It's kinda my brain, not really a good idea to let too many people know what I put in it.

--Mechanically, I mean.
