That seems to strike him a bit strangely, actually. And maybe it's because he's been kind of emotionally weird all day - who knows - but that actually gets a reaction out of him, albeit a minor one.
It's not the same sort of intensity as Silver's caring concern that he puts out there sometimes, but the temperature does rise a bit - it's not a spike, it's light, but still.]
Hey, no. You did what I needed you to do, it's fine.
[It's not pointed, it's just an off-handed remark and not one he intends to pursue. The rise in temperature is really nice though. Kimbley usually doesn't do that.]
You can usually calm me down if I'm worked up, though. I don't know what specific kind of mind-control magical bullshit you're using to do it, I just know it works.

Of course. I need a bit to clean up, but come over whenever you'd like.
[..."clean up" like it's not already spotless...]
no subject
[He'll cut the connection, though; give him something like twenty minutes.]
no subject
But he'll let you in once you get here, alright.]
no subject
I probably upset you pretty bad earlier.
[It's not really an apology, but one's implied. Maybe.]
no subject
[Which is pretty normal, all things considered.]
It's good that you're doing better now. You've never sounded like that before.
[...because he was afraid....... does he sound like that when he's afraid??]
no subject
[He's usually not afraid of anything, after all.]
no subject
[He's really not sure what to say about that. Is it good that Kimbley was able to experience it? Maybe, but all it's doing is making him anxious.]
...I'm sorry I couldn't help more.

I'm glad I could do something for you, then.
no subject
[Rhetorical or not, it's something that kind of needs to be answered.]
I contacted you for that because whatever you do usually works.
no subject
[It's warming up in here, so that certainly seems to be true.]
Though to be fair, I'm not entirely certain what it normally is that I do.
[This time he actually tried, but normally he's just... himself???]
no subject
[...helpful, Kimbley.]

[...Ah, there's the teasing.]

Well, consider yourself lucky.
[DAMMIT DON'T EMBARRASS HIM...]
no subject
[Don't worry, he'll drop it; he's still feeling pretty emotionally out of it, and it isn't long before he's back to the usual void over there.]
...Thanks for calling me over, by the way.
no subject
[In person. Because he just worries constantly otherwise.]
no subject
[...]
...I said a lot of weird shit while I was messed up. Don't worry about that, okay?
no subject
[...]
You'll let me know if you are having problems, correct?
[It's not something he thinks he needs verified, but he'll ask anyway.]
no subject
[...That probably wasn't the answer Archer was looking for, but still.]
no subject
Must you always be so difficult?
no subject
I don't really have problems like that otherwise.
no subject
no subject
...I think I'm more fucked up over the whole emotions thing than I thought I was.

[The not-having-emotions part or the trying-to-experience-them part?]
