William looked at Vernon, then the others, then Masami, before saying: "I don't suppose apologies will work; it seems. Even so, I have to apologize; I feel bad about letting all hell break loose." He turned to Wolf, "Wolf, it's all right that you're doing this for Andras alone; she's made enemies today, enemies that would probably get a sense of what I - or we - can do. It's all right. Note though that if we're going to see Meredith, we'll have to leave my Mother behind; she and Meredith's own Mom...don't get along."

Understatement of the day. Nevertheless, Ascot turned towards Andras and said, "So, I suppose I should give you a chance to leave as your life is now in danger. Are you going to take it? I really hope you won't, but again, you should have that chance."

Turning back to Masami, the boy would say, "Well, it's complicated. Vernon - my boyfriend - was with me, then he fought with Wolf - the armored guy - when Wolf's girlfriend insulted my plan. Then Vernon got blackmailed - Or at least, I presume it's blackmail - into attacking me by a mysterious person who was allied with an enemy. Said enemy is the half-demon whose sapient puppet minions attacked Andras, trying to kidnap her for his own ends." 

A pause. "Yeah...it [i]is[/i] complicated. And now it turns out that Wolf and Vera, his girlfriend, who were hired by my older brother to protect me and Andras - at least I presume it's my older brother - have decided to stay in the job only because Andras is presumably still in it. So yeah."
