"That's why I'm working on it."
--
"What?" She blinks.
--
"Wouldn't a suspicious person intimidate your father?"
--
Rufus opens the door. "Back already?"
--
Darren bristles.
"Ah. Pity."

"Okaay."
---
"If you're going to use this as an excuse, I'll make do. School is very important."
---
"I guess so."
---
He grins and holds out a mug. "Here's your coffee, sir!"
---
"I want to show you a magic trick!" Edan hops closer and reaches to put his hand into Darren's chest.

"I want it to be nice."
--
".. You're really serious?"
--
"I'll ask daddy." She stands and heads for the door.
--
"..Thanks, Stephen." He takes the coffee with a grin. "You're very energetic today."
--
Darren jerks forward to snap at Edan's face, then stops and blinks.

"You're not just saying all that because you don't have anything yet?" She pokes at him.
---
"Yes."
---
"Okay."
---
"That room is great, sir. I feel well rested."
---
"You are very very lucky the crow brought you here. I had a different idea." he lightly flicks at a rib.

"Of course not!" Nuzzle.
--
Sad face.
--
Out she goes! She waves at Stephen. "Hi, guys!"
"Good, I'm glad it's suitable." He waves at Angie.
--
Darren shudders and bares his teeth. "Remove your hand."
Nat needs popcorn.

"Okaaay."
---
"I really feel this important."
---
Stephen waves. "Hi!"
---
"With or without your heart?"

Phew! "How have the parties been?"
--
She pokes at her food.
--
"Do either of you know where Richard can find a tough mercenary? He needs to visit his father and wants some protection."
"Why not take Stephen?"
--
Groooowl. "Don't toy with me."

"I don't go to a party every night."
---
"Why are you so afraid of it?"
---
"Yeah, I'll help!"
---
"Like you toyed with Angelina?"

"Which nights?"
--
"I don't make friends very easily. And I'm not very smart."
--
".. We were a little worried because you used to work for Richard's father." She raises an eyebrow at Stephen.
Rufus looks at Stephen.
--
"That's between Angelina and me. It's none of your business."

"I didn't go anywhere last night."
---
"You are smart. And if you have trouble with anything I can help."
---
"What?" He suddenly frowns. "You don't trust me?"
---
"It is. No one hurts Angelina." He narrows his eyes and lifts his hand to try punching Darren's throat from inside.

"Oh. Yet you're still sleeping late." Chuckle.
--
"I guess.."
--
"It's up to Richard." She shrugs. "You'll have to talk to him."
"Aw, Stephen is a good man."
--
Darren isn't even sure what to think about this. He hacks and gasps for air, reaching out to strike at Edan.
"Edan?" Knock knock!

"I was working. Hmph."
---
"Please, try it."
---
"..I'm not sure I can get Richard to trust me."
---
Edan is hit. He punches at Darren's throat again then removes his hand as he tries to back away.

"Working? Here?"
--
"Okay, okay." Grumpy sigh.
--
"Well, I'm not allowed to go, so he has to be able to trust whoever goes with him." She nods.
Rufus sighs.
--
Darren slumps against the wall, holding his throat and breathing funny. He glares daggers at Edan.

"Yes, I was."
---
"Thank you." He smiles and stands. "I'm off to those meetings now."
---
"I wouldn't turn against him."
---
Edan stares at him a moment then snickers.

"Oh. I didn't know you did any work here in the house."
--
"Okay. Be careful!"
--
"Talk to him."
--
"Go. Away." Wheeze.
Nat is getting no reply! He heads off.
