Drew rambles in fear, and it makes Alex a little regretful that he apparently scared the shit out of the kid. It's making a mess, one that's bordering on insulting, but it's not unforgivable--
Scratch that.
Alex is deaf to Neil's reply, and only turns slowly to look at Drew. "You 'thought' I was his fucking father? How the fuck old do you think I am? And that fucker was a complete asshole, and I am nothing like--"
Alex. Alex Seattle Geer. Are you getting emotionally upset in front of a stranger?
Alex lets out something like a loud growl and spins around to knock his head against the wall, leaving it there as he begs for calm. ED-E, upset on Alex's behalf, starts a series of reprimanding beeps, getting in Drew's face about it and making him step backwards.
Which makes him inadvertently step on Dogmeat's tail. The dog yelps and jolts, in the process getting Drew's legs tangled together, making the kid fall hard on his ass.
He stays there, head in his hands, without a word.
