Faolan nodded, glad for Lucien's agreement and his trust. It would make things easier when he had to leave him alone, especially if the time was extended due to...unforeseen circumstances. [color=a36209]"Ah...that's another thing."[/color] He continued, letting his eyes fall a bit as he spoke, [color=a36209]"I may be gone for different amounts of time. Two, three days, maybe a week, possibly longer. I'll try to get back to you as fast as I can, wherever you are, but it can be difficult to gauge at times."[/color] He paused for a moment as the truck rattled loudly over a patch of loose road, before adding, [color=a36209]"Might make you nervous, but try not to worry. I'll come back for ya' eventually."[/color] He thought he should add this addendum. He had never traveled for longer than a couple weeks with someone before. If Lucien planned to stick around for the long haul, he ought to be fully aware of Faolan's routine.

At Lucien's acceptance of these terms, he leaned back into a comfortable position against the back of the truck bed. [color=a36209]"Oh,"[/color] he said, almost as an afterthought, [color=a36209]"If you ever feel like takin' off on your own, just let me know. I've got my own way of doin' things, not sure if it'll be up your alley or not."[/color] He meant this entirely, and had no expectations about how long Lucien would stick around. Despite his laid back demeanor, Faolan knew there were times when he was hard to be around. Aside from this, the lad had fought for his freedom, both externally and internally, and the Irishman was not about to hold him down now that he had it.
