Raymond merely listened. His expression didn’t flicker as he did so, but he did nod once or twice. There was no advantage being taken of when it came to Aurum. Seemed like a damn shame, seeing that the lion was kind-hearted and boisterous, along with powerful. Nevertheless, he was not surprised. The thought of an outside interfering between the general and captain, whatever it may be, confused the panther. Even so, he had done enough pushing tonight. Any further interest in the subject would be suspicious. After all, his curiosity had always stabbed him in the back and he’d like to prevent that within Tanglewood.
His eyes widened in surprise. ”About six,” the panther echoed back. ”You don’t say.” That seemed like such a short time to instill trust in someone, but in hindsight, it made sense. Tanglewood had many members that had stayed around for a long time, but seniority meant nothing. Only the bold stood out. Aurum, unsurprisingly, was someone that made a great impact within the group.
Family was not a topic Raymond took pride in. In the news of their success, he couldn’t help be envious of their environment. He had never had a family that cared for him or a child to cherish. If he could change that, then perhaps he’d be satisfied. That didn’t seem like any time soon though. ”Sounds splendid,” he commented delightfully. There was no sarcasm in his tone, although he would like to hide a hint of it in there.
With the mention of childhood though, his mood happened to fall flat again. They held that in common. Even if seeing that Aurum could change their ways gave him hope, the sinking feeling in his chest said otherwise. His disdain was hidden under a smirk though. ”We have that in common then,” came his cocky remark. ”Heaven help us.” He doubted God would ever do that for him though. Especially now. What he did before was inexcusable in the Lord’s eyes. Little did he know, Aurum was apart of God’s circlejerk and be used to his advantage.
