Maitho: *He's dressed in nothing more than one of his silk robes, but he doesn't really care. It's his night off, and he's going to stay comfortable. However, he did call his son up to join in the talk, so he at least has a blanket over his lap while he enjoys a smoke.**A couple of the kittens are sleeping at his feet.*

Haydn: [/He was knelt by the edge of the bed, perfectly content with watching over the sleeping kittens quietly, stroking them every so often]

Rowan: [/He comes up the stairs, fiddling with the key idly in his fingers in his jacket pocket] [/He never left it out of his sight since it was given to him and it feels as though even if he were to misplace it he had memorized the notches and ridges so well he could just replicate another if he wished. Not that he would, of course. this was the key that Sven gave him, he wouldn't replace it so cheaply] [/He had been in a bit more of a happily dazed mood though, but it wasn't so noticeable. He still kept to himself and on top of the work he was assigned just as well as before, and when his father called him up to his room, he didn't doddle a single bit] [/He entered the room, with a expecting expression] [/Were they going to move forward finally?] Yes father?

Maitho: Take a seat. *motions to the chair tucked in a cramped corner of the room**They really needed to pick up, but with the kittens pulling everything out of drawers, it was almost pointless.* I've got some news to share with the both of you.

Rowan: I'll be alright with standing. Does... this have to do with our plans? With Mr. Svarc?

Maitho: In a way. *takes a short drag off his cigarette and taps it off* I found a way out of the city.

Rowan: [/He tilts his head up in surprise] Out... the city? To the Outside? But what will that accomplish?

Maitho: I intended to have it only if there was an emergency... but the person I had arrange it seems to have misunderstood. It's up to you two. We can leave this life behind, start again on the Outside, and if war is still on your mind, we can always attack from out there.

Rowan: ...If you and 'Uncle' wish to leave Arcadia, I'm afraid I will not be going with you. Leaving Arcadia is not an option for me now.

Maitho: ..... *pokes Haydn* The kittens will still be there when I quit talking, brother.

Haydn: [/He looks up, humming] I don't mind what happens~ [/He said with a light tone] I'll go with you regardless. [/He eyes Rowan and shrugs with a short chuckle] You, you I'm sure have a very silly reason for staying~ Yes?

Rowan: [/Narrows his eyes] It isn't silly.

Maitho: *amused chuckle* All for that man of yours, hmm?

Rowan: ...I have my... obligations. [/He suffles slightly, gripping the key a bit tightly] I'm a grown man myself, not a child. I can decide for myself what-

Haydn: Oh no, we're not doubting your decision making here~ [/But he mumbles childishly under his breath that perhaps... someone should be doing that...]

Maitho: It's fine, Rowan. Like I said, I wasn't planning on leaving so soon... but I suppose I'll have to ask the others if they have people wanting to leave on their end. I would rather not have asked her such a request if I knew how quickly she could have it arranged.

Rowan: [/He nods quietly in agreement] I understand. This news... is fairly startling to hear, I never heard you mention leaving the city before. [/He sighs, and relaxes a little] Leaving the city, that alone would be complicated and risky plan. Normals from what I heard would have to plan for months in advance. If this connection you have was able to arrange a way out so quickly... it'd be good to question it.

Maitho: I think she knows better than to double-cross me. *smiles* I apparently left quite the impression before I was taken to the Tartarus. Strange, considering I never really planned to even so much as make her sick. *shrugs* In any case, I'll pass the word along.

Rowan: [/He smiles faintly, not doubting it for a moment] I'm sure you did...

Haydn: [/Hums a little] But it's good to hear our 'young man' still have his eyes on the prize~ Don't fret now, Valey-Waley will get his.

Maitho: Yes... he certainly will. *sighs* I apologize for not helping more with that endeavor, but we should be getting another start on that soon enough.

Haydn: Good things come in time brother, don't apologize~<3

Rowan: I'll try not to act on my own before then.

Maitho: I would appreciate it. If you don't feel we have more to talk about, you can go. *snuffs out the small stub of his cigarette* That's all I really needed to say.

Rowan: That's all I suppose then, Father. [/He smiles faintly before turning to leave the room] I'll be seeing you in the morning before it gets too lively.
