Duo looked at her. Nodding his head in agreement. Yeah so was being the highest nobleman's son. Always in the spotlight whether you wanted to be or not. He sighed a bit. "I know how that is. To always be in the spotlight whether you wanted to be there or not. Always critisizing what you do. Where you go. What you say. How you do something. It is a pain in the ass." He said rather bluntly. "I gave up caring what other people thought of me in the public records. After all most everyone thinks of me as the "wolf man" and it kinda stings. Best way to ignore the sting is to pretend it doesn't exist." He sai honestly. Sighing a bit. "One day he will if you hold out against marrying off just because somebody said so." He smiled at her a bit. Then it faltered before fading as she continued. "You aren't at fault for that. I know you weren't. Assassians are sent all the time to kill royalty. To make "points" and "examples" of them. It isn't uncommon and there was nothing you could have done to prevent it or stop it. Especially if you were younger."<br/><br/>He began eating his food as it was brought over. Thanking the man in Italian befre beginning to eat. Looking at her. "its alright. I'm used to people being distant or hesitant. At least you aren't looking at me like I'm going to jump you and rip you apart like a wild animal." He said with a shrug. "I do things like this all the time. If they can't accept me then I don't have to accept their ideal role in society. I am who I am and I won't change it for anyone." He paused a moment. "If you could be reunited with him or her would you want to be?" he asked completely at random after a long silence. "If so I'd like to help you get reunited. Everyone needs a real friend." he said wistfully. Shaking his head and smiled a bit at her. "You are welcome." He laughed a bit. "Bella it is just starting. No need to thank me yet until our "date" is over with." He said with a warm smile.
