Family matters

For some time, Quintus had felt a lot of regret. Why hadn't he stayed with his parents, or even with his youngest siblings? It seemed stupid to wander off on his own, in retrospect, and even now he wished he had made a different choice. Being alone hadn't really been that great. For awhile, he thought that he'd made a good choice in joining Abaven, particularly because of Harmony, but now her presence was scarce at best. Perhaps he shouldn't have gone there at all.. Quintus found surprise painting itself clearly on his features at Leo's words. He had reunited with Isolde, Amalia, Caeto, AND their mom? And Arian too. "Huh," he would mumble, considering the meeting -- and wondering why it hadn't been that joyful. He didn't know if he would be overjoyed to see them all at once though, either. It'd be nothing short of overwhelming, and he still felt slightly bitter that nobody in his family had tried to find him all these seasons. 'Nothing in our family could ever be simply, hm?' Leo would ask and he found another low chuckle falling from his lips. "So very true," he retorted with a snort. "So is everyone doing alright? Wait... was Dad not there?" Quintus noted that Leo hadn't said anything about their father and couldn't help the sinking feeling that had begun to form in his stomach. Surely he was around? Why wouldn't he be there when most of the family reunited at last? His nose would wrinkle as he waited for an answer, curiosity ebbing in his sea-green stare. |
