We need to talk, lad.

First rule of working with Muses, lad: There are no secrets between the girls and me. They have this psychic connection of sorts between them, and it filters back to me to a lesser extent. If one is hurt, sad, frightened, or even extremely happy, the rest are going to know about it.

Even so, bloody hell, mate. I know she's easily pleased, but that's still impressive.

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

Uh, well... Thank you? I just wanted to make her happy.

[Bes gives a sudden, defeated sigh and his voice has traces of amusement hidden in the embarrassment when he continues.]

We're never going to be able to have any secret quickies, are we? Between you guys and my damn cat, it's like Twitter in the bedroom.

[He laughs]
Not a one, lad. Not a one. On the converse, you'll have people cheering you on.

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

If I find cameras hidden in my room...

[It hardly sounds threatening when his own laughter lurks beneath the words.]

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

You're probably safe on that one. Unless Hermes shows up.

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

Or Erato asks... God, I'm doomed, aren't I?

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

That might be a bit strong a word for it, but, think of it this way: it'll be a ride like none other!

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

And, to be honest, I wouldn't say no for the world. I'm in for the long haul. I think you picked that up already.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

I'm sure you'll feel like part of the family in no time, mate.

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

... I hope so. I'd like that...

And I want to thank you again. I know it's important for you and her sister to be alright with us.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

The most important thing to me is that she's safe and happy. I have to protect my girls.

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

I know and I swear to you that I'll do my best. You know, protecting is something that I do pretty well, I hear... And, well, I remember it now, too.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

Good. So, we on the same page, then, lad?

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

Completely.
