((OOC: You are absolutely not wrong, love. I am so proud. razz ))
Reticence's laugh was weak, shaky, and not at all humourous. "As it turns out, yes," he breathed. "Half."
He had felt Maxy's stiffening when she'd started putting things together, and now he gently pulled away from her, standing up and walking to the far side of the room. In her place, he wouldn't have wanted to be near him, either. If that made any sense.
It explained more than it didn't. Marcelius's treatment of him, for one - he'd always known that the Keshval let him get away with things that no one else would have dared try. It explained the almost effortless leadership he'd always had over the other slaves - Keshval had that effect on humans. It explained the painful devotion he'd always had towards their master, and why he'd never really remembered a life on Earth.
He'd never had one.
Reticence still didn't know the full story, and wasn't sure he wanted to. With the very basics of it - what he'd learned today - his life was already upside-down. He'd always found other ways to explain away the things that made no sense. There had always been an excuse. Now there wasn't.
And he didn't really know what to think about that.
