He probably should follow that up with asking what the matter is, then, but he doesn't feel like having a talk like this so early in the morning. Especially not in light of the horror that he might have kissed a man in public.
Armand doesn't see a need to bring it up himself. That might get in the way of a policy of passive-aggression over topics that he hasn't tried to have a non passive-aggressive talk about.
Instead, he has his own cup of tea and continues working on beating the next level of solitaire on his iPad (he's been doing them in order).
"Do you have plans for the day?" He asks when coffee has had a chance to be drunk.
"I don't have anywhere else I'm planning to be," he agrees.
"I can pick something without any loud noises," he adds, a little dryly. Sucks to have to deal with things like hangovers, and he's glad he doesn't have to.
(As the magical dish washing fairy, Armand has more than once felt that Gojyo is very lucky that he's exactly as understanding of what matters as he should be cute.)
Only the first movie is a silent film. Armand thinks the play version of He Who Gets Slapped has a better ending, but it's still a good film.
He does think that The Children's Hour is the perfect follow up.
Gojyo doesn't sleep through He Who Gets Slapped, exactly, but he drifts throughout its runtime, paying it very little attention. He doesn't lean against Armand - Armand is still clearly angry; it doesn't seem the right move - instead choosing to drowse on the other side of the couch.
He's more attentive when the second movie plays. And, well, that's... depressing.
"This one made in your world?"
Most movies Armand chooses are, but not every single one.
When Armand chooses a move from a different world it isn't always one of the stranger ones - he's been known to pick out an action movie that at least has cinematography that's almost up to his standards - but it is usually from the angle of an interest in some film technique or other.
"It's based off a play." He'd seen it back in Paris, on one of the nights he'd felt like watching someone else direct. "Which in turn was based off a true story. Though the details were changed a little for the stage."
"Most people here are from places and times when it's considered acceptable, but it doesn't make it true everywhere. The case this was based on took place over two hundred years before 'my' time." He scoffs a little. "There are even some vampires who have hangups about sexuality, which is even more ridiculous."
It's one thing to believe whatever when your mortal, but to hold onto it when you're an undead monster who hunts the night for blood? It's even more embarrassing.
"I suppose that's one thing about being... taken by a group of fanatics, they cared about different things." He considers a moment. "Well, they likely considered it some sort of sin and therefore proper for a vampire."
Sin, huh. There's the weird instinct to protest that: what his best friend is doing isn't sinful, what the fuck (Gojyo's actions aren't part of this particular instinct; his bad choices don't need defending). He pushes it down.
"They were a cult that believed vampires were made by god to kill good people so they would go to heaven, or something along those lines. It was a somewhat confused ideology. 'Weirdos' is something of an understatement."
"I don't. There was a time all I had was them, and even then I didn't believe it. It was just... the people I knew."
And he didn't want to be alone.
"But that was a long time ago." Goyjo might think that it’s wrong to get too close when angry, but Armand disagrees and moves to see if he can lean against him. Besides, he might be upset but he’s semi-frequently been upset by people he loves and it doesn’t change his feelings.

Gojyo gets up to pour himself a cup of coffee.

Even with liquids and some food under the vest Gojyo doesn't exactly feel great.
"Wanna watch something?"
Curling up on the couch feeling sorry for his poor head seems like a good use of the day.

Gojyo shifts a little, getting into a more comfortable position.
"Didn't think people in your world had hang-ups about that kind of thing."

Of course that shit still sticks with you. Gojyo already regrets this line of conversation: it's not the kind of talk he ever wants to have.
"Whatever. People are stupid in all worlds everywhere, the end."

It's just to clarify, not an accusation. It sounds like Armand isn't including himself in that.
