[The candle probably saves a lot of Varian's anxiety that would otherwise be spiking right now. Clearly, cleary he's said something very wrong. Again. Just once, he'd like a conversation with Fern not to end in a complete and utter mess. Just once. Things had been going so well. Should he have not mentioned Ruby? as she always going to be some variable that triggered Fern's anger? Should he maybe not speak about either of them to the other for... the rest of time?

...That seems like it'd get real exhausting, real fast.

Oh. Those eyes are not good. And the sword even less so. Nope. Fucking nope

Wait you want to stab her again? Because of this? Fern, no. [The candle keeps his anger down, too. Probably for the best.] Look, I get that you don't like her, but you're just gonna have to accept both of you exist in my life and it would be way less stressful for me if you didn't want to kill her all the damn time.

[Jesus, is this how he used to be? So full of rage and spite that killing was the only recourse left? He doesn't like that though. Not one bit.]

Just... put the sword down, Fern.
