Cyril nods at the apology. "Accepted. I honestly shouldn't have responded as strongly as I should either. There will be all sort of people who have opinions about my choices, and reacting such a way to them is just a way to make the whole situation even worse." A pause. "I guess that means that I'm sorry too."
Cade is surprised to receive the apology in turn, and glances briefly at Cyril, just long enough to see that he's serious. Then Cade nods, pursing his lips. "It's all right," he replies, then lapses into silence, his frequent approach to situations that are awkward.
Cade seems surprised by the question, but his confusion quickly becomes a small, sheepish smile. "...yes," he says, "but I, um. Messed it up again." So he can do it more than once, of course. He assumes that's the point.

Cyril lets the silence last a bit longer. "Have you... have you been able to figure out the puzzle box I gave you?" he asked after a moment.

Cyril nods. "Good. That means you'll get more use from it. I hope it helps give you something to do with your hands."
