"Fuck it." Neal runs a hand through his hair, flashes Jedao a tired smile, and gestures at nothing. "Fuck it! Just leave him alone, and maybe if you have an issue with him, take in the context in which it's come up, and talk to him when that context has passed. I'm not here to compare injuries or to say he's innocent, I'm here because he's learning, he's in the process of learning, I'm not shielding him, he doesn't even know I'm here."
He spreads both arms wide. "So, is this stupid score settled or should I be investing in further security to protect my underwear?"
"Do you think I didn't? The context is that he's a warden, Neal. I've had a lot learn, too, but I don't take it out on inmates no matter how gutted I am."
He tilts his head back against the dryer, eyes closed for a moment. Jedao waves a hand. "The point of this was to be minor, so no, I'd be an immense hypocrite if I were mad about a roll of my own dice. I've no further plans for petty aggravation. But I think I will talk to him."
Since Neal is clearly incapable of giving a reliable answer to his question.
"I would actually prefer you didn't, if it's just to tell him what he already knows. He's already had someone rally at least two other wardens that I know of to stick their noses into his behavior, so I think he has those bases well-covered at this point, and it might be less helpful than not."
He shakes his head, breathing out a laugh. "I don't know what I wanted from this conversation, honestly."
"We've already established that I resorted to this because I didn't think telling him things people have already told him would have any useful effect," Jedao points out, faintly wry.
"But no, I'm going to. I have questions that I don't believe you can answer for me. If he tells me to fuck off than I will. Would you like me to give you a few hours to get your story straight?"

But maybe he should have expected what he got.
