[Someone's gone, so Haytham's able to summon up mild and highly bland paternal interest and concern.]

Has anyone seen Connor?

[Filtered to Assassins - Edward Kenway]

I do not know what my son has said of me to any of you, but I'm sure he has made mention of my position within my Order at least once or twice. [/sarcasm] I would like to make it clear that I've no interest in engaging in any sort of conflict with any of you. You've little reason to take me at my word, but you can trust that there is nothing to gain here.

[He also would not raise his sword against his father, but he leaves that out. Much in the same way he's still trying to avoid conversation about these things with his father in the first place. Whoops.]

Hmm, last I heard from Connor, he was asking me how to impress a girl. I think that anonymous question asking about what women like was him too. After that... actually I have not seen him in a while.

But I think he lives in the woods, usually.

[There are only so many people who would ask.]

Who's this?

Assassins - Edward

[unmanned]

[James sees this, but decides to not say anything. Secrets are hard to keep in a place like Paradisa, he's learned, but for now he'd rather Haytham not get a correct headcount.

Fucking Templars.]

Has the boy gone missing?

[not here]

[theflyingone]

[ Altaïr is of the opinion that as long as there are people to be controlled, there is always something for a Templar to gain. He trusts strangers little, and Templars not at all.

Thus, Altaïr becomes his own introduction to network lurking. ]

I suppose you have tried mounting a search for him?

[He responds since it is a father asking after a son, but not with the filter. Sorry Haytham but they had been warned of you. ]

[freeslider]

I haven't seen him in awhile, now that you mention it, but that doesn't seem all that unusual. He doesn't like the castle much.

[sugarwaffo]

Is a friend of yours missing?

voice;

[wishmadeinfire]

No, and I have not heard from him since we last spoke not to long ago...

Is it something to be concerned about?

_{[ He had seemed a rather solitary boy to him. ]}

Stephanie

[assassino]

Tread carefully.

Haytham Kenway

[assassino]

[Fuck it –– the other Assassins aren't saying anything, but he will.]

You will be left alone, unless you give us reason to engage you.

[And needless to say, the first order of business is tracking down Connor, just in case this is some sort of perverse warning instead of an innocent question.]

Ezio

[secondchances]

Wait, don't tell me--Haytham?

Stephanie

[assassino]

Yes.

Have you seen Connor?

Ezio

[secondchances]

No.

I swear, if this guy did something and is just trying to cover his tracks with the concerned father act...

Stephanie

[assassino]

No. That would be too obvious.

[Not that Templars haven't been known to gloat about their power, but why draw attention to themselves?]

Round up some people we can trust and see if anyone knows what Connor has been up to.

Ezio

[secondchances]

Will do. If he hasn't gone home, he might just be out exploring.

Stephanie

[assassino]

We can only hope.

[He would cause a fuss even if his absence. Connor...]

Ezio

[secondchances]

Yeah. Then I can go all mom on his ass about telling someone where he's going.

Kids.

Stephanie

[assassino]

Is that a thing your people do?

Ezio

[secondchances]

Sometimes. My mom never kept track of me. Anyway, it would be the polite thing for him to do so we don't worry.

Especially with dear ol' daddy around.

[shallwe]

[Cue. Connor, really? Haytham's not touching that topic.]

I wouldn't expect he spend much time in the castle. But I do believe he and I need to have a conversation.

[What with all those murder accusations that Haytham doesn't actually know about (yet). But he does know that Connor's got the wrong idea about that situation and it might help remove some of the animosity between the two of them.]

[shallwe]

My name is Haytham Kenway.

[molotov]

[Molotov really recommends you do touch that topic, Haytham, because the Kenway animal magnetism has definitely skipped poor Connor. Do at least one nice thing for your son.]

Oh? About what?

[shallwe]

As I understand it, he does not spend much time in the castle. [A moment before he adds,] There are things he and I need to discuss.

[shallwe]

Nothing quite so drastic.
