Ghetsis seemed like a polite gentleman, yet there was always this side of him that seemed... distant. For starters, he never exactly enjoyed physical contact; he would always react almost aggressively towards it, like your intentions were to hurt him. But that as it may be, it seemed to be that only one person could touch him - with permission of course. That man was none other than Dr. Colress Achroma; who is a diligent scientist, but still an employee of Ghetsis none the less. Yet here he was, sitting on Ghetsis' bed, gently combing his hair. Colress was odd to say the least, it was not only his connection with Ghetsis that threw many people off, but the fact that he, a man of science, had no issue with doing hair. Colress could style your hair almost anyway you want, but others found it strange as he does not have long hair himself. So here they sat in silence; almost refusing to speak to one another, as Colress gently tugged on his boss's hair. Colress acknowledged how contact can be difficult for Ghetsis, so whenever he was to find a knot; he would stop brushing, and work it out with his hands alone to allow Ghetsis to feel less threatened. His careful and precise method caused time to tick away faster then either of them would like, and Ghetsis took note of this. His voice seemed to ring out and the silence was broken "Why do you insist on taking so long?" he asked. Colress hesitated for a moment, both on his words and actions, but quickly continued "Because..." he paused for a moment "Because I know you'd prefer it if I didn't pull on your hair". Ghetsis scoffed quietly in response "I said nothing like that". Colress couldn't help but to smile as he continued to work out another knot "You didn't have to, last time a grunt tapped your shoulder to inform you of something, you slapped him" he chuckled. Silence fell between the two again, clearly Colress touched on something he shouldn't have. A few more minutes passed before he had finished brushing Ghetsis' hair, but when he had finished he simply stood up and announced that he was done. Ghetsis stayed quiet for another minute before mumbling a thank you, which is something Colress had hardly heard from him. Before he could point it out however, Ghetsis stood to face him and continued "I appreciate that you bothered to make some kind of effort for once Colress..." his tone sounded almost bitter, but there was appreciation in it. Colress laughed "That was a touch dramatic don't you think?" He still chuckled slightly but continued on "Don't get use to it alright? I quite enjoy pestering you". But even with those words Colress smiled sweetly at him, "But I do hold some respect for you" he said softly. Ghetsis only scowled at him "... Get out."
