At least they had the same idea about hand holding, so that much was a relief. The feeling of something clamping around his forearm caused Eris to withdraw his hand, and it took him a second to realize Alderman had put something there. He cautiously ran his fingers over it, feeling the cooled metal. Once he heard the word 'leash' he snapped his head up, a look of mixed horror and disgust plastered on his face probably aimed at the wrong direction. How cute, he got an upgrade from pack mule to dog, except he didn't have a benevolent owner who would dote on him and shower him with love, affection, and way too many toys. Instead, he was at the mercy of an irritable Alderman who sounded like he was just about ready to stab someone. 

Eris turned his head in the direction of a random mage talking, raising his eyebrows when he noticed how tightly the kid held his arm. Should he pat his hand in comfort or something? Knowing his luck he'd accidentally smack the kid and piss him off further. Ugh, he felt like that time he accidentally took a sip of a stupid mage's wine instead of blood and ended up purging terribly, except he didn't have Ismene to gently stroke his back in comfort, he had a cranky Alderman instead. Maybe he could just ask the kid to go easy on him. Ha, what a joke.

A weird feeling hit him, but by the time he could comprehend it and get his head back on, Alderman was already cursing and bitching. This was going to be a [i]very[/i] long night. He shook his head, blinking rapidly before remembering that his sight was just going to stay lost. [color=ccff99]"Hey, hey, hey!"[/color] He couldn't help the slight panic in his voice as he was suddenly dragged forward, the sensation throwing him off guard completely. Fucking hell, he wasn't a fan of just getting pulled around, especially when he couldn't see. Well, that wasn't entirely accurate, it was who was doing the pulling right now that made him nervous.

[color=ccff99]"First of all, don't get all bent out of shape so quickly. You're going to tire yourself out and getting all worked up is going to get you nowhere--turn that boiling rage down to seething,"[/color] Eris snapped, turning his hand like he was turning down the knob on a stove. [color=ccff99]"Anger is energy, energy is used for problem solving and exacting revenge on your enemies."[/color]

Dropping his arm, Eris took a second to think, crossing his arms. [color=ccff99]"Turn noon to midnight...I'm going to assume you're reading this off of something,"[/color] He said, slowly turning in place and facing the completely opposite direction he was facing before, pointing straight. [color=ccff99]"Don't go overthinking just yet, you were onto it with the clock analogy. Turn around from wherever you read this and go straight from there."[/color]
