[For a hot minute he considered calling Steven outright, but with how much liquor he downed in an attempt to soothe his temper, he realizes that he will not be able to properly modulate his voice. At least this way he can squint at his message and make certain it makes sense, without carrying too much incriminating emotion within it.
Or he can try, anyway.]
Steven,
It goes without saying that we are far from allies in any sense of the word, regardless of our selfsame affiliation with our place of work. In fact, one might hazard to say such has made our inability to forge civil interaction particularly worse. I see not an improvement of such relations on the horizon, nor likely at all given the gulf between our perspectives, experiences, and beliefs. Merely, that is the way of it, and there is no changing it, sorry as I am to admit it. A failure we both share, I suppose.
So, I bid you to know well that when I say this, it is in the truest earnest.
Thank you for protecting Hythlodaeus. I believed you incapable of such mercy. Now I know otherwise.
