Nox grinned. "I have an endless supply of unwilling listeners. I tend to talk ... a lot. So thanks for that. I can get advice from Hayden if I need it." He really needed to talk to him, fix whatever was going on, but there really wasn't anything to fix. He was pissed about things that didn't matter. Nox understood Hayden. And his reasons but that didn't make it feel any better, or make him feel any better about the rest of his choices.
Nox sighed and stood back up and shut down the equipment. "I'm not doing any of it for recognition. Even the project for the refugee's I've asked Ana and Emily to help out with. It's the right thing to do. And I think that there is now a group of Atharim who are going to exploit that philosophy. And I don't know if it's a good or bad thing, specially with me as the face of it all." He shook his head and got back on topic. "The kids are great, they are resilient and without the pressures of their former life are thriving as normal kids. Half of them even started going to a physical school so they could socialize -- all their own idea not mine."
"You hungry? I'm sure I can whip up something? I need to feed the hunger." He'd just eaten but inverting weaves took a lot of energy he needed a snack already.
