Were they? He didn't think so, even if he wished for it, but somehow he didn't think Alois did relationships. So no, they weren't together in that sense. But how should he answer Quenton's rather straight forward question?

He could answer it in one sense or he could be honest and answer fully and completely. "He drives me nuts at times, he's saved me from myself, he's brilliant - like you are. It's physical and only that..teasing and physical and as much as I'd like more I don't think it's his thing, so I don't ask and push it to the back." To keep what they had he would sacrifice. "He comes and goes and it's there then it's not and then it's back." it wasn't what he'd ever wanted and yet it was what he had with the other. He hated and loved it and wished for more. He had given up, sacrificed, some things for the other.
"
"I suppose that's the best, and most honest, answer I can give."

The pause was notable. The grinding of thoughts and how to quantify the vagaries of a difficult partner equally plain. Sometimes even the smallest silences can speak volumes.

And all the more accompanied by such answers. 'Physical?'
Quenton slowly blinked, eyebrow lifting slightly with a note of singular impression. Well, certainly farther then we. Am I jealous? Or more concerned for how such casual liaisons can cut? Or something else? "Rare the light we find outside in life matches the windows of the dream churches we were raised in, the rose windows full of ideals that find few analog out in real gardens and meadows, forests and mazes. "

Hopefully things would work out to at least some benefit for Alex when it came to the mysteries of company and love. Knowing some measure of Alex's preferences and youth combined, the best that could be offered was a heartfelt, "Just be safe, if you can."

Alex was smart enough himself to have done his research, and if the admissions were any telling, now had far more experience to speak from on matters of love or physicality. The Young man was a breath of more worldly air, for all that his echelon was a good deal above what most conventions called 'worldly'. I don't expect I can be the friend that you talk to about such things, I'm afraid. But you have many more friends than I. There must be someone among them that can be that voice of wisdom and whispered confidences about lovemaking and experiments, advice and fantasies. I look too much to build a bier.

Quenton sobered, considering the shared poetry in the museum and shadows through leaves in the canopy of swaying ropes, and put down his utensil as all appetite fled. "I wondering if he curiosity might be as a rival suitor finds an ex. I suppose I was not wrong then. Do assure him, if you can, that we're friends only? I'll do the same if it comes up again. If I can keep my brain organized enough to think of anything outside of just projects."

He slid down from his chair, surreptitiously brushing off, "Speaking of- the relief pieces."

It was the work of a couple moments to load the counters on casters, but if was a welcome distraction that he performed. Once they were, he rolled four different examples over to near the table so that Alex could look them over without having to leave the lunch.

"I'm finding that out. I hadn't thought it could be so different. But it is." Laughing at the others words he felt a smile crossing his features, as is amused by his own situation or rather by the other pointing out what he was realizing. How he wished he could have closer to what he wished for. Maybe if things had worked out with Quenton? He wished they had, still did, but he just felt like it couldn't. Both of them so busy with things they could not bring the other in to. He couldn't, and wouldn't, bring the other into the life he lived in darkness. He wasn't sure he fit in fully with Quenton either, the other felt so far away at times just like Alois did.

"I shall I try but there is no guarantee when one becomes involved, to any extent, with another person. Even as friends or acquaintances. I'd say it may even go double for those living in this city. With the terrorists and problems this city faces. But thank you Quenton. I will be as safe as I can be." A real, soft, genuine smile blossomed as he watched the other. He wondered how Quenton felt with this talk about who he was with, sort of, right now. He knew it wouldn't be a talk he'd want to have if their roles were reversed.

Following the other, coming off his own chair, he caught up to the longer legged male. "I don't think so. I doubt he worries as relationships he doesn't seem to do. I doubt he would care if I were seeing another person, be it one or a dozen others." but he wasn't seeing anyone else. He waited, each time Alois and him were not involved, waiting for when something would again happen. He put himself in a position he needn't be in simply because of his own opinions on such things and his own wants.

"Yes, lets see the masterpieces you've made." He stated with confidence in the others abilities. He knew Quenton was good and he also knew Stroud wouldn't lead him astray in designing and decorating the tea shop he was working on. No, Quenton would have made masterpieces and he couldn't wait to see them.

Alex's having gotten down just to follow him while he loaded things onto casters was...odd, but the youth was welcome to stand or follow as well as sit at his pleasure.

The options ranged various degrees of relief to the patterns and whether the plant forms were lighter, the same shade or darker than the counter base. They mimicked fossil forms- delicate fronds of fern, pine, ginkgo or reaching, bare branches. The colors were all naturals, texture very convincingly stone despite their resin-origins. Each version looked and felt expensive, as high quality furniture tended to, though whether that was noticeably to one accustomed to fine things and rich surroundings as Alex was remained a mystery as far as Quenton could predict.

"If you like the patterns on one but the colours on another, its all open. I can mix and match the aspects for the final pieces to your preference."

He had followed because he simply wanted to, to keep at the others side and assist if needed. He didn't like the idea of sitting while Quenton went about doing these things.

It was when everything was laid out that he moved to explore the project the other had undertaken for him. Fingers gently ran over surfaces as he took it all in and smiled wide. "Amazing work." Indeed, the quality to it he could see and tell not to mention it was perfect for what he wanted. Pointing to one with a richer color he nodded then. "That one, I like the deeper color to it, I like the richness to it." And the designs worked as well, they worked very nicely. The time Quenton must have put into these all. The texture was good, nothing too light but nothing too deep either. "It's perfect actually."

Indeed, it was perfect. This would do very nicely in the tea shop. He felt a bit bad for using it in a plot to gather energy, pulling the others work and thus Quenton's soul and passion, into such a thing. But he had to get over that. he couldn't allow that to bother him. "I only wish I could create things like this."

Pulling a grease pencil from one of the canisters strategically placed around the room, the sculptor marked the indicated master with some notations.

"I've only got the master molds right now. How quickly will you be needing them? Stroud said the turn around was rapid as I could make it. Or how many need to be cast even..."

"I think a week might be the best I can manage. I could have you three by then if you don't need many, or I can spend the first 48 hours making extra molds. It woudl increase the number I could have for you to 6. The size and amount of seating was uncertain when she approached me about it. " Approached was putting it gently. Alex's compliments were kind, but it was the smaller youth's hands tracing the pieces that spoke with more volume.

"You'd need only to take the appropriate classes. Casting and pouring is gone over in basics for the 3d Compositions final. You have a good eye for art already, it is just a matter of training and technique. It would be sad to take time away from your watercolour, though."

"I won't be needing them so soon that you need to make extra molds. A week is fine, even longer. I don't want you to over work yourself or neglect anything else you're working on." He said with concern lacing his words. He worried for the other over working himself, or putting other important things on a back burner in order to help him. He didn't want anything else Quenton had going to suffer, or the others health.

"When I open the coffee shop you'll have to come. I'll show you the backroom and let you pick something from there." Something which wouldn't be set up to grab energy, he couldn't do that to Quenton. "Something which no one else has touched or been at." No components that have sat in bins and such. It was part of the reason, since he didn't lie ever, but it wasn't the whole reason. There was no way he could give him the full reason he told him that he'd get him whatever he wanted from the backroom.

"I'll let you know before we're due to open and remind you the day before." Figuring the other might just forget, too caught up in everything else he had going on. It was busy lives which had ended the relationship they'd had...and he was still busy as was Quenton. Would he ever not be so busy? Maybe so; if the war ever ended.

"I'm already being taken from my watercolours, I'm learning oil painting as well now. I started dabbling in high school and plan to learn more with oils here. But no, I think to add another new form of art to my load it would be too much, too many new things, and I don't want to risk f ailing at anything or doing less than my best." No, he might like the idea but it wasn't something he could take the time and learn, maybe at some point but not now. "I don't know how you manage it Quenton - really I don't. You take so many classes and so many different styles you know about. I'd drown in it all."

Rather than leaving the matter to memory alone, Quenton pulled out his phone and set a date and alarm for a few days hence and again a few more as reminders. As an extra precaution, he also returned to the table and bags, pulling the most recent Moleskin out and wrote it at the top left on a series of the subsequent blank pages. "I'll definitely keep the 'deadline' and opening itself on my mind. And if not there, then force-feeding reminding myself. "

"I don't want to miss it. It's ...good to be able to support a friend. Or try to, anyway."

"As for how I do it? Who's to say I'm succeeding?" I lost you, after all. And more is lost each night...so much time in the ER, and a bevy of scars. Those generals still alive. But the tone was light, not belying the sentiment thought. "I don't exactly sleep- that's when I have to work on the music major. You've a better balance, Alex. Don't admire my stupidity~ "

Laughing at the others actions, as he followed the other with his eyes, he shook his head. "If you don't make it I will just have to come and get you. I won't have you miss it - you pitched in with the lovely work you've done and are doing." And thus Quenton needed to be there, and hopefully someone would praise the others work where he'd hear it.

"Try to?" Shaking his head he smiled. "No, you are supporting me. It means a lot and your work is lovely." He showed his passion for his craft with his work, the skill and detail, and Alex loved that. he hoped others saw what he did when looking at what the other would be creating for him.

"I think it's an opinionated matter, you may not think you are suceeding. But I'd say in regard to your art - your craft - I think you are. You're well rounded where as most aren't. I do admire your dedication. I couldn't do it." Shaking his head as he took a seat once more. "I think you push yourself too much. You need to take more time to enjoy things rather than work and craft your masterpieces." He did that himself even though a lot of his time was filled with work and duties to the Negaverse. It was both there lives which had ended the relationship, and he missed it at times.

"I should be going. You can stop by and drop the basket off when your done. That way you have to come visit and I can shove more food at you." Teasing, bright, smile in place as he looked up at the other. "Maybe I'll even get lucky and drag you off to do something and enjoy some time away from this room." He would see to it that he had time to take Quenton out to have some fun, he'd just have to figure out what kind of fun.

Jumping to his feet he reached out to place a hand on the others shoulder. "I'm going to make sure you have some fun this summer. I'll find a way." He'd have to figure out ways to drag his friend, and ex, away from the lab here and off to do summer time things, even if they were things he'd normally never do himself.
