(Ooc) I'm assuming Greg that the invitation was still open :3 (OOC)
The pair would open up the door to reveal Marcus waiting on the other side looking surprisingly wide eyed and bushy tailed for a man who stayed up all night brooding over what had happened the night before. He seemed quite subdued, yet still retained that mischevious glint in his eyes.
"Goooooooood morning gentlemen~." He greeted them with a cheerfully sing song tone. "Mind if I come in for a sec?" Though spoken in the form of a question, there was a slight edge in his voice that made it clear it wasent a request.

Lucien jumped when he opened the door, not expecting to see anyone, let alone Marcus! Before he knew what was going on, Marcus was asking to enter the room.
Lucien stood there, quite nervously, wondering exactly what his commander knew. After shooting a glance over at Ari, he stepped out of the way to let Marcus in.
"Of.. Of course. Come right in..."

Flinching at the sudden appearance, Ari's eyes went a little wide but his face remained otherwise expressionless and vague. He shifted his gaze to Lucien for a moment and calmly took a few steps backward, toward his own bed.
Well, the other bed, at least. It wasn't his nor had he slept in it. The teen sat down with his hands in his lap and watched Marcus expectantly. The man seemed... excited about something. Ari didn't know how to feel about that.

Slipping into the room, Marcus found himself a chair, flipped it around and sat down on it reversed style with his arms resting on the backrest. With an almost twitchy energy his eyes, darkened from the lack of sleep, would dart from Lucien to Asthma and back again for a few silent moments until, with an abrupt clap of his hands, he would begin to speak at a breakneck pace.
"Alright gentlepeoples first order of business is now! Kiddo-" Cutting himself off, Marcus would adopt a thoughtful expression, eyes shooting to some random spot on the ceiling over Asthma's head. "Kiddo? Kiddoooooo. No! Too patronizing. At least. right now. Asthma? Unweildy. Saaaaaay Assie.....GAH! Ewwwwwbadno. Kiddo." With a nod of his head he would repeat the word a few more times to himself. as if tasting the flavor before waving his hand dismissively. "Kiddo will have to work for now then. Unless you have another name you go by?"

Lucien was very shocked by Marcus' sudden... strange attitude. It was a weird thing that just happened, and Marcus was obviously suffering from an acute lack of gravitas sleep.
"A-Ari. His name is Ari." He stated, slightly hesitant of the overuse of the word Kiddo.
Kiddo. Kiddo. Kiddo. God, Lucien hated that word.

Ari... cringed. Noticeably. The slightly narrow-eyed look begged Marcus to stop. Eventually he just shut his eyes for a moment and nodded gratefully when Lucien corrected him.
"i don't know why they call me Asthma, i don't even have asthma." he added, with inner frustration. Eddie had named him that, and then disappeared. And the name stuck.

((Ooc)) off my phone so sorry for the low quality. ((ooc))
Marcus nodded his head, seemingly satisfied. "Ari. Huh, mmkay. Well Ari I betcha fretting about how loud I was barking last night hmm? See I figure this, make it sound like we're out for blood and the boys and girls'll feel all nice and vindicated see? Thing is though if you guys are sneaky enough to have hidden unseen this long, then I figure they'll be no problem." He explained with a knowing wink. "I'm sure as sure thinking y'all can handle it huh?"
"The thing iis, I wouldn't mind me some context as to what's been going on between us, the crows and the rogues. See that's where I've been getting the frustrations from. Lack of context. Its quite frustrating. I'm conflicted you see, I just don't know what to make of you."
Marcus then seemed to relax, slowly. His eyes ceased its almost hunters gaze and his shoulders visably slumped as a warm friendly smile which reached his eyes spread accross his face. "So who are you Ari? Id like to know alittle about you as ari the person, not as asthma the rogue."

Lucien's face grew slightly more confused as Marcus spoke on. So... He's in my room.. Because he wants to know.. What exactly? He didn't think that Ari knew much of the Rogues' plans or schemes, that woman seemed to keep that pretty tight.
But then as Marcus probed deeper with questions about Ari as a person, Lucien grew slightly nervous. Did he know? Would he find out? Earlier, Lucien was feeling conflictingly relieved that he didn't have parents to explain last night's incident to. But, he never thought of the consequences that might entail if his commanding officer found out that he had done... That, with a Rogue.
But, he stayed silent, not wanting to interrupt the thought process. With any luck he would get out of this unscathed.

Ari's mouth hung slightly ajar, pulled along by the trial of questions without much in the way of answering. As Marcus seemed to finally trail off Ari couldn't pinpoint whether he was relieved or if he should hope the man would just keep talking and forget who he was even talking to. Would have bene easier that way, but instead:
"...uhhhhh...
"...i don't know, i'm just.. me... i guess... uhm... kind of just a normal person, really. i like... things, uhm.. like animals i guess? i don't really know," the young man mumbled, quite articulately. He paused and timidly bit his bottom lip to stop himself from fumbling any more words and hoped Marcus would find the answer acceptable, or at least boring enough not to warrant anymore.

Ari's little shy show put the giggles into the man for a moment. It didn't take a genius to be able to tell the kid was extremely uncomfortable being put under the spotlight like this. Unfortunately for him, Marcus wanted answers.
Marcus wanted Context. He would NOT be made a fool again.
"Cute." Marcus said with a sincere grin before twisting his head to regard Lucien who had been tucked into a corner watching all this. "Pup. You got a half an hour to yourselves. Wash and eat up cause I dont intend on making too many stops. I want you ready by the van in that time or I'm leaving without you two."
And with that, Marcus got up and made his way out the door, leaving the pair behind to go get ahold of the strongest pot of coffee he could find.
This headache wasn't going to be going away anytime soon.

Lucien watched as Marcus left the duo with not much more than a brief order to move out. He stayed still for a full five seconds before blinking and sighing. Turning to Ari slowly, he suddenly was at a loss for words, and sat there, with an open mouth, thinking of something to say before slowly closing it again.
Finally, after a moment more of silence, it was broken by the sound of the mattress bending back to its natural position as Lucien stood up.
"We should get going. There's just enough time for breakfast before we have to move out."
He waited for Ari to say something, just in case the boy felt weird about... THIS.

"yeah we should do that." Ari promptly agreed as he rose to his feet preparing to follow Lucien to the door and resume the exit they'd been making before Marcus showed up. The young man kept a terse, but polite smile on his lips until no one was looking at him anymore, and all at once his eyes would close and a rather tired grimace tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he sighed inwardly.

Walking through the halls to the cafeteria, Lucien silently thought about the situation he was in. That is, until he smelled the first signs of breakfast.
On the menu was fresh fruit, hashbrowns and eggs, with juice. Lucien ate in silence, his eyes unfocused. Unless engaged in conversation, he would busily eat until they were both ready to go.
