Caught in the act, I'm afraid.
[And smiling smugly in spite of it. Chiron gets back to his feet carefully, and after he does so, there's a soft laugh.]
Of all the people to worry about that would judge on appearances, you'd put me in that category?

Well, you know that pride was always a heel for Greeks.
[But he doesn't need to list examples.]
How often to you come to this space?

Then whoever it is you come here for must be very special indeed.
[Chiron makes a point of not asking after their identity. It isn't his business since Fiore has chosen not to share it.]
How do you normally get here?

The chair can't be comfortable with this little paved ground.
[There's a soft noise, which means Chiron's worried about that of all things. But then there's Fiore's question, and he shakes his head no.]
Never, no.

Never, no.
Ah. A very good and loyal friend then.
[He understands. And there is a respect for remembering a friend who must be old and longer gone at this point.]
The both of you unto each other.

And had you tried to stop him, what would have happened? Nothing acceptable or pleasant for either of you, you know.
[Part of the visits are guilt, aren't they? But the description is gruesome, and Chiron does cringe. Just a little.]
Caring for another in death is still deeply important.

[It's a harsh and cruel thing to use as a reminder, isn't it? But there's another thread there, one that is just as important.]
It sounds as if he didn't forget either.

[They're both far, far too kind for the kind of work a life of magecraft demands, aren't they?]
I think he still does. And no matter what comes of these decisions, I doubt that is going to change. [Chiron's pace is incredibly leisurely at the moment, bordering on slow. Mostly this is so Caules doesn't end up hearing a Deeply Sentimental conversation.]
You've always looked out for each other.

[ Thanks, Chiron. Looking out for them, as always. ]
That's... just how siblings are. We're fortunate that we weren't both born with the same capacity for magecraft, or we wouldn't have been able to be as close.
[ Everything was a competition in magecraft, after all. ]

Even without magecraft, not every set of siblings get a relationships like the both of you have.

I do. And as I understand it, what is owed has never been something called in and never will be.
And he's proud of you as well. That's been apparent to me since you first called me forth into this world.
Really? Whose teaching methods is he comparing them to, if I may be so bold to ask?
[Which is really to ask: how is this horse worse than Lord El-Melloi II?]
