Joseph & Rhys
"I know." There was almost a smile there, too. He'd learned more tonight about what it meant to be in the court. Having to have a certain face, doing certain things. The show of it all really helped quite a few things become clear. While all he wanted was to pull Joseph away and take him upstairs and take care of him, himself? He knew better. Maybe more now than he would have before.
Reaching out, Rhys brought gentle fingers over his bracelet that was still on his lover's wrist. He'd call it a good luck charm now and wouldn't be told otherwise. "Anything you want later..."
More relief swept through him at Amadeus being okay, Ariel being okay. They may have lost an important place, but most of the important people had made it, it seemed. At least to Rhys. "I can do more.. don't worry." Easier said then done, on both sides.
Finally taking a step back, the fledgling watched Joseph's face for a moment, as if he hadn't already committed it to memory, before finally turning away and returning to where a ghoul was waiting for him. More people were coming and he had more to do, they all did.
