Sneaking Out Past Curfew

The way they jumped when he spoke told him they definitely hadn't noticed his approach and that they hadn't planned on anyone seeing them out here. He saw the way they were leaned into each other before they hastily separated and that certainly wasn't the kind of interaction he would expect from anyone besides someone she was intimately familiar with. He was incredibly curious about the other male that seemed determined to slip away as soon as possible before he could be given the grilling that Plague desperately wanted to give him, but that naturally protective, brotherly side of him was also incredibly suspicious as well. He certainly trusted his sister to fend for herself and know what was in her best interests, but she was a recently heartbroken woman with a significant power and influence in this world. He didn't fully trust that someone wouldn't try to take advantage of that and wiggle their way into her life for less than pure reasons.

The still nameless man excused himself and bid Venom a farewell, the polite bow he gave her feeling very much like something he was doing purely because of her brother's scrutinizing gaze. He gave a soft 'humph' as the rouge disappeared into the night, watching him scurry off before turning his gaze to Venom. He smirked at her teasing comment and the giggle she gave him, his eyes narrowing into a bit of a mostly teasing glare. "As a matter of fact I would," he told her with a chuckle, nudging her shoulder with his own when she came to sit down beside him. He had known and been close to Venom for almost their entire lives and never would he ever have imagined this kind of late night, secret fling from her. She had always been so proper, so careful, and yet here she was, sneaking out to fraternize with some random rogue.

"I don't think it's unreasonable for me to be concerned over finding some unaffiliated rogue of questionable origins nuzzling my dear sister," he told her as he peered down at her with open curiosity and questioning in his emerald gaze. Still, he wanted to see her happy and for a brief second before he interrupted them he could tell that she was truly enjoying being with whoever that male was—which wasn't always something he could say about when he saw her and her former mate together. "Well... go on," he prompted with a wave of his taloned paw, a little grin tugging at his lips like gossipy gay he was. "Who is he? How did you meet? How long as this been going on?"
