((Drat. I was just saying hi, actually. ^_^))
*He colored slightly. That was the second time today he'd done that.*
"It's complicated." Came the defensive reply.

((Just so you know I wasn't ignoring you. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) )) "Evidently," *she said, her brow furrowed. She met Aimee's eyes for a second.* "Will you excuse us, Aimee?" *Drawing der Tod aside to the next room, she reverted her attention back to him.* "Complicated how?"

((HAI GAIZ.))
*She suddenly felt really bad. Maybe she shouldn't have mentioned anything. She hadn't wanted to upset them--they seemed so happy together. She hadn't meant anything by it... she loved history. All she had wanted to do was tell Renn what she was reading about. All the weirdness about Renn being Sisi... that couldn't really be true, could it?*
*She closed the book and suddenly felt very tired. She grabbed the blanket that was always thrown over the side of the couch and pulled it over her, using one of the throw pillows to cushion her head. She promptly fell asleep.*

*He wasn't meeting her eyes*
"I've loved you from the start. But you weren't the only one I watched over. The entire family was fascinating to me. Especially Sisi, and Rudolf."

((The bell's about to ring so I'll have to go poof. Sorry!))
*She narrowed her eyes.*
"Then why don't you want to talk about it?"

*He was fidgeting now*
"We've had fights before, you know. Even back then...for a while, I focused on Rudolf. He reminded me lot of you, in some ways."
*He was purposefully not saying much. Hoping she wouldn't guess*

"... Focused on?" *she repeated, a confused look on her face. What did that mean? Unless it meant something she thought it meant.
But he couldn't....*
That should not be hot.[/i]

*Judging by her expression, she was quite likely getting the wrong idea.*
"I was a friend to Rudolf. Sisi and he, their relationship wasn't the best. With me there, he wasn't alone."
*Manipulating Rudolf, on top of that...but he'd been different back then*

((Me, getting the wrong idea? Neever. ;D ))
"I don't understand. Why didn't you want to mention it, then, if you were his friend?"

((Ya rite))
*His entire demeanor changed to one of sadness*
"Who do you think was there when he took his own life?"

((*shifty eyes*))
*She bit her lip awkwardly.*
Way to be a stupid insensitive idiot, Renn.
"Oh... I'm sorry."

*He hugged her reassuringly*
"It's all right, Rennifly."

*She smiled.*
"Why... why did he kill himself?" *she asked hesitantly.*

((Oh, boy. There's actual controversy around this and nobody is really certain what happened. I'll, er, go with the official report's thought XD ))
"Franz wanted him to end his relationship with Mary. Some claim other things, conspiracy theories. A shame they never asked me about it."
*His half-smile was rather grim*

((Make something up. XD It's all der Tod's fault. Totally.))
"Heh, yeah," *she said, smiling awkwardly.*
