[Her irritation with him doesn't seem to bother him, letting his arm drape over the back of his chair as he leans into it. Ajax turns his eyes to Aether nodding to confirm at least the first half of what she's saying.]
It's true. I insisted because I was concerned they would follow her to her apartment and snatch her up too. I was partially right about that one. They didn't come for her, but rather chose to send a package instead that was clearly designed for reasons twofold; a threat and a trap. And, well, it worked.
[Because Lumine took the bait, but he doesn't say that out loud. Aether is well aware. But Ajax doesn't address the sex part, he'll let him wonder about that to himself. He finds it...more fun that way.]
Anyhow, as much as she's protested to me being around, I think it best that wherever your next place of residence is, we should be there together. Being separated has only caused us nothing but problems, all within the span of a week. So even if it's temporary, I'll have something set up for tomorrow to move into immediately. Your names will be scrubbed from the record, so it should be much harder to find you both unless you're physically stalked back to the apartment. I'll be staying there too.
[The edges of Ajax's mouth turn down, looking horribly serious now. The pain he feels in his body will remind him for months and months to come how dangerous this situation has become for them all.]
From now on, we do things together, okay? There was a point where I didn't know if I was going to lose both of you.
