"You would even let her be a whore, if she would only grace you with her presence from time to time, isn't that it?" He pressed on, smirking, expression seemin colder and sharper with every wor. "You do love her, don't you? You'd let her cat around, then always take her back, no matter how long she's been gone, and no matter who she's been ********, because, let me tell you, my friend, she's done more than her fair share of that."

Why does it matter? She doesn't want me anyways. She wants Saber. So who cares who she does and doesn't ********? It's her body. He shook his head and sat back down, eyes returning to their piercing blue as he returned his arms to rest on his knees.
Tristian seemed rather disappointed with Lucius' attitude, but decided to wait before asking him to just leave Shinji alone. He knew his brother could handle himself, so he wasn't going to try to protect him quite yet.

He let his face relax, eyes now merely hooded, intead of narrowed tightly. He laughed, softly, in a humming, closed-mouthed way, smiling lazily, conspiratorially. "And you want it. You want it as much as you've wanted anything. I know. I know, because I wanted it to. But there are better ways. More efficient ones. More . . . . amusing ways." He slid his hands into his pockets as he turned, calling out over his shoulder as he strode off, "She'll ******** you before it's all over with, no need to worry about that, friend. She does anything that looks twice."

What'd'you know...Shinji muttered, shaking his head as he glared at Lucius.
Tristian frowned and glided through the air, swiftly past Lucius and back into the shack they'd been in, returning to visibility curled on the burlap sacks.

He stopped in his tracks and smirked coldly. He peeled up his shirt, baring a pale back, with the letters 'LQ' tattooed on the back of his right shoulder. Though they were inked and not cut, the resemblence was remarkable to scars Shinji had seen elsewhere.
Lucius waited until he was sure Shinji had had time to see, and to recognize, then let his shirt fall back.
"THAT is what I know."
With that, he disappeared into the mist in the graveyard, moving with quiet stealth to evade follow, adn get back to the shack.
When he slipped in, he sat down beside Tristian, looking down at him, head tilted. "I don't know how you did it, and I don' know how I know, but I know you saw what just went on out there, and I want to know why it was important enough to you to follow me and spy."

Shinji just shook his head and glared after Lucius, too angry with himself to care what he did to Opheliah and when.
Tristian shook his head and gave Lucius a calm look. I didn't want you to hurt my brother, that's all.

Lucius nodded, not seeming surprised that they were brothers. "Then we're square, no? Or do you think telling him the truth about that harpie is hurting him?"

Tristian shrugged, having mixed feelings on what had happened. I just think he should learn from his own mistakes, as anyone else would..He wanted to add that he didn't understand why Lucius would call Opheliah 'his', but he figured it wasn't his place to ask.

He nodded again, but didn't press close. He'd pushed out of Tristian's comfort zone, and it was best to let him come back to him when he was ready. "Maybe so. Anger and bitterness can make people do things that might not be for the bes of anyone involved. Am I forgiven?"

Merryn watched the exchange between Shinji and Lucius with shock and fast coming anger. Who were they talking about, certainly not Lena. Turning, shaking, to Shinji she sighed out of relief as the strange boy left. "What," she whispered, "Was that about?"

Shinji shook his head. He wasn't quite sure. Opheliah I think...he muttered, clenching his teeth a moment. I think he's the one who's made her so unsure about herself...
Tristian thought a moment then nodded. Lucius confused him, fascinated him...but that last incident sort of scared him. Frankly he didn't care if Lucius was vile - as long as he didn't use it towards his family.

"Mmmm," he purred softly, smiling and leaning in again, voice humming with the same seductive energy, as he leaned down to kisshim, murmuring through their lips, softly, "There's my angellus."

Merryn blinked in confusion then placed a reassuring hand on Shinji's shoulder, "You mean Mitsuru's sister?" Sending a thread of hope through her arm and fingers, the small angelic girl hoped it would settle what she hoped was a new friend.

Shinji shuddered softly at Merryn's touch. It'd been a long, long time since another immortal had given him anything to help, and it made him smile some. He looked to Merryn again and nodded. Yes...Mitsuru's sister...He pondered a moment whether or not to tell her what he knew, but he decided not to tell her if she wasn't interested.
Tristian smiled and brushed his fingers over Lucius' hand. He looked to the other, hoping he was settled some. Might I ask...why you're so attached to that girl? His voice was soft, full of the need to comfort.

He nuzzled Tristian's cheek, softly, murmuring, "Attatched isn't quite the word I would use, angellus. Fixated is more appropriate. She stole from me, and I'll take it out of her hide. What she took was hers to begin with, but she handed it over to me, and she tole it back. Now it's no use to me anymore." He stroked Tristian's cheek, kissing him again, softly, voice cool, soft, mesmerizig, "Because I've found something so much better, something that goes past yours and mine. If you follow, my angellus."
