Sage knew he had been a bit harsh, but he also felt that Milo needed that over gentle coddling or understanding… they simply couldn't risk someone jeopardizing everything for all the vampires in this city. If one was found out then what about the rest? Sure, some could escape and restart in other places, they could lie low… but at what cost? How many vampires would die? While it was true they fed on humans, very few vampires had actually chosen to become what they were.<br/><br/>He shook his head and noted a message from another hunter who was in pursuit of their target and so he began heading that way as he sent more information back to base while he walked. There was no running about now, not when someone else was tracking him… they usually prefered to follow them back home or at least to some type of base, so it was all just a matter of waiting now.<br/><br/>******<br/><br/>Back at the house Aries had been watching tv again after washing the sheets from the man's bed and remarking it… he really did need to think of more chores to do during the day or he might go crazy. Still, he was just a little impatient for the man to come home… what would he bring back from the city? Maybe some more snacks? He already said he'd get some more clothes for him… and maybe he was just a little selfish in thinking he might get more than just that.<br/><br/>However, when the other did finally return and Aries glanced up to him he noted the male seemed… upset. And he didn't have anything with him either. The redhead paused, uneasy… he could smell blood on the other as well and it made him shiver. But it wasn't much, and there was some human and some vampire… and some of the other vampire's own it seemed.<br/><br/>He stared as the male started up the stairs, about to say nothing, but after a moment he did decide to at least say something. "Bad day?" He asked, voice soft and just a little harsh in his typical fashion despite trying to actually act like a normal person… he was really bad at being normal though. And of course he knew it, glancing away and then back to the tv as though to assure the male he could just ignore him… it wasn't like Aries could help anything anyway but… he had thought the man had been feeling a little better earlier. Now he just seemed… upset.
