[despite the overwhelming urge to continue shit-talking someone he doesn't know, klaus clamps his teeth together then purses his lips, forces himself into silence so he can listen to rhys continue talking. hold up, did he say they found a vault? he vaguely remembers those being kinda important whenever rhys was explaining.] Wait, you... run your own company now? Holy shit, Rhys, that's awesome! So is meeting back up with your friends! [not getting to see everything they'd worked so hard for...] Sucks about the vault, though.

[he watches him toss his hands about, biting the inside of his cheek to stifle a smirk. dramatic as always, thankfully. klaus's hand closest to rhys reaches up and out, gently circles fingers around his wrist.] It may not be a vault, but for whatever it's worth, I missed you.
