Jupiter's face went blank at Valentine's assertion. He hadn't considered that until now. Ballad was dead because of him. That new information rendered him speechless. He swallowed hard, his heart racing, as his thoughts latched onto his grandfather's words and ran wild. This was all his fault. He had known better; he was always so careful. With her he hadn't been thinking, he'd just wanted to be with someone whose only expectations he knew he could satisfy.
Valentine asked him a question and Jupiter stared blankly at him for a second. "Huh? Oh," he swallowed before answering slowly, "they're still with her." It was only then that he realized what he'd done and his gaze, which had drifted away, flashed back to Valentine in alarm. "I left them...there."
NOTE: this character is pretty on the outside but nothing but ugliness and innuendo on the inside. It's best to consider all threads with him rated 'M' regardless of the official tags.
