Quinn let out a breath, still coming to terms with the fact of who Tony was. "This is…"

@ShadeStar

Antonio made a slight noise of acknowledgment hearing Quinn speak. He wasn't going to say anything though.

@ElderGod-Icefire

"Sorry." He muttered, closing his eyes and chewing faintly on his lower lip.

@ShadeStar

"You're fine," Antonio responded not having much else to say.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He stood, pacing across the room and back again.

@ShadeStar

Antonio decided to leave Quinn to it and tried to figure out what to do with himself.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He was thinking, trying to figure out how to process all of this as he paced.

@ShadeStar

Antonio watched Quinn for a moment before getting up and heading towards the kitchen to see if he could make anything.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Quinn kept pacing, a faint frown on his face.

@ShadeStar

Antonio found some ingredients and began to make something for both of them.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He flopped down on the couch again, still frowning.

@ShadeStar

Antonio hummed softly under his breath as he cooked.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He chewed on his lip a little, raking his hand through his hair.

@ShadeStar

Antonio glanced over to where Quinn was before going back to what he was doing.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Quinn glanced over at Tony for a moment, then away again.

@ShadeStar

Antonio continued to make the meal glancing over at Quinn.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Quinn chewed on the inside of his cheek faintly.

@ShadeStar

Antonio began to hum just slightly louder.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He glanced over quietly, eyebrows pulled together in a faint frown.

@ShadeStar

Antonio continued to do what he was doing trying to ignore the tension in the house.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He finally ran his hands through his hair. "We, uhm…really have to get you home."

@ShadeStar

"I guess," Antonio replied glancing at Quinn.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He bit his lip a little, closing his eyes. "Do I…why do I need to come, again?" He had lived in this city all his life. The idea of leaving…scared him.

@ShadeStar

"Becuase, becuase I can't adequately describe what's happened here. What is happening here," Antonio explained choosing his words carefully.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He shook his head faintly. "Okay, but…why me? I'm not…I'm not exactly the oldest person here, or…" He trailed off, unsure.

@ShadeStar

"I, uh, feel the most comfortable with you," Antonio replied looking over at him, "You know, since you took me in so readily and all. And it's a long way from here to my home."

@ElderGod-Icefire

Quinn ran his hands through his hair, agitated. "I…I need to sleep on it, alright?" He said.

@ShadeStar

"Yeah, that's completely fine with me," Antonio nodded watching Quinn.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He nodded a little. "Yeah. Of…of course." He said slowly. "I…"

@ShadeStar

Antonio stayed quiet waiting to see if Quinn finished his thought.
