"I guess it's less of a question and more of a favor." The Forsaken said, stopping at a fairly dark corner. He turned his body to face Talyson. Looking down on the courier now, face to face, Noah had forgotten how much he dwarfed the younger man. He rocked back on his heels to be less imposing, but continued on. "If Cordelia and the twins come home to Halo in Flowerbirth, will you promise to keep an eye on them? Even from a distance is ok." There was a pang in Noah's voice that wasn't there before. A twitch in his jaw that showed the moment of vulnerability he chose to share with the courier.
"I can't leave the Grounds until I've finished what Vi asked of me." He said, reasoning out his inquiry. While he didn't go into any details, he hoped Talyson would take it at face value -- it seemed, so far, that the news of Noah's falling hadn't reached the ears of the Messenger. He hoped that even when -- if -- it did, Talyson would still look at him the same way he was looking at him now.
