And there it is, her constant need for something to do, no matter how inane. Conversation is something he's gotten better about, but there's usually a comfortable buffer of two other, especially talkative people for him to fall back on if he's in a sullen mood. Not that he disdains talking to Lina; quite the opposite as their discussions, when she's in the mood for it at least, are intelligent and engaging, just two normal people who share mutual respect.
Just now, however, he's the one not in the mood. Zelgadis flickers his gaze sideward, and it's the unexpected flash of her white hair more than her verbal pestering that convince him to stop and deign to at least find out what she wants. It's the least he can do for someone who risked her life to save his, all of theirs, with the Giga Slave.
Somehow, and gods as his witness he'll never know how, she always manages to defy the longest odds. Prove to his over-logical mind that the impossible can be done.
"What?" He even manages not to sound annoyed, though as ever he's not exactly dripping charisma.
