"Well that means you're on the right track at least. You just need to not be so blind to what might truly be going on. There a difference in being attentive and paying attention." Sevena says.

"But I do...but they always leave anyways..." Gardos says

"I didn't just mean in regards to them, but you as well. If a man can't look after himself and show some spine then yeah, they'll leave." Sevena says bluntly.

"Happiness is important but you need security too. That's your problem. Too lonely to care about that so long as something pretty is looking at you. I don't blame you, but it's a trap of your own making." Sevena turns her head to look him right in the eye.
"Women are cruel at times, manipulative beings. Just ask my first husband and son, I used him to sire me a son, and that boy proved to be a disappointment. So I speak from knowing. My second husband...he was kind of like how you could be if you tried. Though in time he lost his fire...then his life to Kurok in that duel." Sevena smiles. "I can still be cruel and it'd be ok with Kurok. Ours is an open marriage. I could take you and your brother to bed and screw your brains right now...but all it'd be for me is physical gratification. But I could make you believe..." She walks close to Gardos, looking at him seductively. "And you'd fall willingly into my trap. A real man Gardos can see that...and say no. That's my lesson for you, the most important I have to give." She leans into his ear. "Do better than a woman like me. You're far too pure for such things Brother dear."
She then turns away. "You need to maybe try something against your normal type. Someone...not like me at all. Tell me...what species do you prefer dating?"

"Any..." Gardos says "I don't date succubi anymore though...that...hurt too much..." he says and starts to recall his past loves.

"So no preferences, just one refusal? Good, an open mind." Sevena says. "Cuts down on rejections."

"In theory..." Gardos sighs.

"Well regardless we're going to Itianur soon enough. Likely your other brother's found Kurok by now and he'll have a plan that I pray doesn't involve decking you for daring to ask him to kill you." Sevena turns. "Seriously though, what makes you think he'd do it?"

"He hates people like me...and he's not as attached to Mother as the rest of us, so I thought he might not mind her being mad at him for a bit..." Gardos says "Daito would have just laughed at me...Loruel would have scoffed or something...Shasim would only make things worse with all his women...Vercingetorix ran off, and would have likely screwed up anyways because he's an idiot....the list goes on...."

Jargus growls.
"Yes, he is underestimating Kurok. He fails to understand that his angr at his siblings comes from a desire for them to transcend themselves like he did. He loves his mother as much as you all do, he can just keep it under control." Sevena says. "You are a poor judge of character. If he's heard about that he's probably so upset that I'm glad your mother is there. You'd break his little black heart."
Zog smirks. "Dad's a heartless bastard but he's also all about family. I mean look at Uncle Jarg. He's likely worse off then you but since he's stuck with us he's gotten tough."
Jargus forces himself to stand on two feet and smiles.
"I was told he never could do that for long....that is before he came here." Sevena says. "If he can do that much now, how can you do any less?"
Jargus continues to stand as he walks forward on just his two feet proudly.

Arwin smiles "Alright Jargus!"
Gardos nods "Jargus is so strong willed...such progress...I have no excuss...I am a failure..." he mutters.

Jargus growls and smacks Gardos on the back lightly and points up. "He wants you to stand tall with him. He's not doing this to show off. He's trying to inspire you." Sevena says.

Gardos looks at Jargus saddly. His lip quivers a second and his eyes water "I'm sorry brother...I'm too lowly to be as great as you...at least for now...I...will try but...I fear I will disappoint you....like I do everyone else."

Jargus sighs but smiles. That was as good as it got with Gardos.
"You're only lowly if you don't try. If you don't try then you can't win. A failure still means you gave it your best." Zog says. "Dad's first lesson of being a man."
