Keeping his gaze away from the blonde Adonis until after he felt his eyes peel off of him. Once Cassian had entered the scene, Demi dared to steal a glance, hoping that some of that remorse Zeke was feeling would be slowly leaving by now. They really couldn't have a happy moment could they? He looked upwards towards the sky for a moment, wondering if Aphrodite was enjoying this. It was a messy triangle of will they won't they, spattered with drama to fill the ages. Demetri hadn't fully been listening to what Cassian had to say, more so lost in his own thoughts as he slowly made his way closer to Zeke and the rest so as to not wander too far. Cassian gave Zeke a shrug. He didn't have all the answers, hell he didn't have any answers besides the ones just given. Apollo's kid had offered the idea of spilling enough blood to wake Gaia and Cass hadn't even considered that as an option. But before he could say anything Zeke seemed to catch another conversation as the Romans approached the fire and Chiron. It appeared that they had been deliberating on this very subject. One of them was attacked by the same force and their secrecy seemed to set Zeke off the edge. Demetri jumped back into the present as he saw anger rise in Zeke. A part of him wished to pull Zeke back, calm him down; another found it extremely attractive in an odd way, but mostly his heart twisted to see him go through so much in such a little amount of time. From the happiness he saw moments before, towards racking guilt, and now searing anger...it was a lot. Demi took a careful step towards Zeke, thanking the gods Mary was a bit more leveled with her response. [Color=6666FF]"You're right Zeke, and gods I hate to say that. They should've told us sooner, but infighting isn't going to help us solve this problem."[/color] Cassian watched this all from afar, thinking until the pieces seemed to click together. Whether he was correct or not he had no idea. But stories his mother had told him flooded his mind and if he was correct. He made his way towards Zeke and the rest and placed himself between the child of Apollo and the Roman woman. [Color=CC00CC]"Even a broken clock is right every once in a while. Demetri has a point, and to that end it was something you said Zeke that triggered thus thought. What if they are looking to shed demigod blood? To awaken Gaia and bring back their old master? Sure, having the Greeks fight amongst themselves might get a little scuffle here and there. But the greatest wars were between the Romans and the Greeks. It's [i]why[/i] we were separated. We need to band together to stop our enemy. And to keep a new war from arising."[/color] Cassian looked pleadingly at Zeke, then pointedly at Madalyne. [Color=CC00CC]"That means no more secrets. You are under our care and in our home. If one of your Romans are attacked you are to report it directly to Chiron, then whomever you see fit on your end. But we cannot have anymore of this."[/color]
