Valerian didn't know what to say. His gaze flickered between Greengrass and the wall, and then back to Greengrass, and then back to the wall...
Of course, he'd like to have something done about the ghost. On one hand the spirit had proved wholly unbothersome before now, at least compared to what a nuisance he'd thought it would have ended up being; but on the other hand, this entire situation was bothersome enough to instill him with a vindictive rage towards the spirit for interrupting such a sacred, blissful moment.
"Not... not now," he finally answered, adamant that he wouldn't have Greengrass leaving his bed for that. It was unromantic. Embarrassing. He still hadn't completely recovered from their coupling, and to even think of venturing out in search of the intruding spirit was exhausting enough. "I wouldn't have you work while you're here." Here meaning here—in his bedroom, in his bed, naked and vulnerable and warm and soft... "—and besides, he's... notoriously difficult to reason with."
(Although if Valerian was able to simply disappear through the walls when he was done talking to someone he didn't want to be around, he would also be notoriously difficult to reason with. He was starting to wish he could disappear through walls.)
