The general was sometimes rude in his words and orders - but that didn't mean he didn't care about his subordinates. There was less and less good news, and more and more problems - which affected the team's spirit. The problems were also added by the fact that Dmitry didn't like the progress of your translation of the book of the Apocalypse. It seemed to him that you weren't telling us something, constantly looking for adventures on your ass all over Rotkov, instead of getting down to business.

"Put all your passion into the matter. I expect progress from you by tomorrow." the man says sullenly, but his voice is calm, plus, "unnoticeably" putting your candy bar into his pocket, opening it already outside the library door

It was getting on for the night, and Dmitry felt that he might have been too demanding. Having finished his work in the office, the General carefully puts everything away on the shelves - a habit that had taken hold of him a long time ago, to keep his work area clean. Immediately after that, he moved to the library, trying not to make too much noise under the old floors of Boris's estate.

"Were you so eager to get things done that you decided to sit here all night?" he says quietly, as if noting for himself, not wanting to wake you up, reading the notes near the book. Perhaps he appreciated your dedication. Or, he was pleased that you took his words seriously.
