There's beauty in the breakdown [Joining]

Quote:

Oh, so his little brother had spunk - he was proud of him, really. But he had asked because he wanted to know, not because he was judging his reasoning. The snarky bastard may have been just that, but there was a level of honesty that his family recieved that others didn't. Shame it wasn't obvious to said family that that was how he functioned. "Relaax, I wanted to know why you were here. If you had a reason to respect her I'd accept it - we're family kid." He could tell, by his eyes, his scent, and his presence being at his mother's death match that he was family. Yet he didn't know his name... fuck, that was important - no wonder the kid was already snippy with him.

Killers huh? Well, he would belive that when he saw it. The brute was curious though - how often did they kill? Who employed them? Or did they just run around and do what they pleased? Judging by this woman's demeanor it wasn't the latter, but it wasn't often that any form of authority managed to do anything but make him roll his eyes and saunter off in the other direction. Yet at the same time, her eyes as well as her words and tone seemed to belittle he and his kin in a way that he did not appreciate. "We are Elysius, we're greater than your average commoner - our sister's the reason you have this place isn't it?" He wasn't sure what had happened with Artemis, but she had been the one to fight for this place, she had shed blood for it - it was hers first. Which was one less reason to respect this woman, her empire's base was not built on her own strength, but someone's else's. "I'm Codeine, and I might be interested in your assassin pack - so what comes next?" Would he and his brother be tested or something? Or would they just be accepted in and watched carefully?


Would his brother want to stay? He had introduced himself to both he and the woman before them - perhaps he would get a name from the younger Elysius as well. He wanted to look after him if he would let him. It was a shame that he and his siblings had looked after themselves for so long when they had older siblings that honestly cared regardless of their less than benevolent personalities. But it had been a while now since Morphine's death - would they accept him as any sort of guardian figure?
