[Portion of a yellow and white scaled body on a wood surface. Marble white fingers with pointed nails appear; grasp around the body, lifting it up out view, revealing the wood surface to be a coffee table in nicely furnished living room. Luke, ponytailed and dressed in uncharacteristic causal (light blue tshirt and jeans), steps into the frame. Long blond hair pulled completely away from his face; more fitted, colored clothing; increased amount of skin showing; all adds to make his green eyes glow slighty and body's whiteness stand out like a Greek statue. Strong emphasis on "not human" here.

He carries large python over to a comfortable looking over-stuffed armchair draped with a pine green blanket. Those with a sharp eye may notice it has faint shimmer running thru its threads.

Deposits Len-Len on the blanketed chair. The snake slithers a few circles before coming to loose coiled rest.

Luke turns his attention to the 'audience'] Don't be so surprised. Would you wear your good clothes while doing housework?

My friend... don't you understand?

Probably all too well, but go ahead with your explanation.

Maintaining a distance... would you ask Marishka to deny her Master? [A thought that's lingered in his mind since he'd come to know her.]

She and I are more alike than you might realize.

If she was miserable and the love one-sided, yes.

[Ouch. As much as he'd like to deny it, there is a certain amount of undeniable truth in it. Perhaps they weren't as alike as Solomon would have liked to believe.]

...

[Flipped the device from Len-Len onto himself; poker-faced, seated on the couch, and patiently waiting for Solomon to regain his voice.]

... if you meant to make me feel better, I think other words might have been more effective.

I'm aware... of my situation. [And yes, it looked like it hurt.]

May stay with me if you wish - effective enough?

Back at my old room? Or is this an actual invitation to where you live?

My home, unless you're ready to face the penthouse.

A rare honor.

... but no, I'm not... quite up to it. Going back just yet, I mean ~~if ever~~.

[He grows quiet for a moment, thinking.]

... is it really important, leaving?

[A million thoughts cross through his mind. Mainly what the repercussions could be, and if it really mattered to him just what would happen. Would things get better if he had some time removed from the whole situation? And another thought.]

Who would look after Marishka?

Yes. It's Diva central there, plus Karl's latest obsession on top of that, staying means you'll definitely be caught in the middle.

Bring her along, of course. Den is the darkest room and I added blackout curtains to it recently. Forest, even in winter, is thick enough to dapple sunlight. Underground entrances are in close proximity.

His latest obsession? What, something new?

Don't re-involve yourself. Leave now.

Ignorance is a weakness... would you have me remain unaware of what surrounds me?

...you already know what his reaction is to that damn girl.

Oh. I thought you said it was something new...

No, I've known about this particular obsession.

[Sigh&eye-roll upward]'Renewed' then.

Are you going to leave or not?

I am considering it. [He says this with sincerity. But Solomon has never been the rash brother in his family ~~another one gets that claim~~.

Careful. Methodical. ~~Mostly compliant~~. These words suit Solomon better.]

May I think about this... a few days. I'd like to speak with Marishka when she's available.

[Hides his disappointment.] Alright.

Thank you. I'll be in touch.
