Aphrodite's attempts to quell her husband's nervous fidgeting had been unsuccessful, she didn't try again. He would do as he needed to handle the situation. When his hand disappeared from hers, she flexed her fingers, unaware that she had been holding him so hard. Hopefully, she had not hurt him. Leaning against him she sighed, thankful for the contact and the warmth of his form against hers. Dite was took a moment to breath when Holland took control of the conversation, unsure if she would have been able to continue without the presence of tears.
Julianna was her best friend. Owen wasn't the only one missing her.
Dite made a noise, somewhere between a laugh and a scoff at his understatement. A bit of train wreck. She looked at his poised fingers dubiously. Owen was an absolute mess, and his icy exterior didn't hide that from her.
Aphrodite ordered a Cosmopolitan, and Sairus neglected to order anything. There was a brief pause in the conversation as the waiter came and went. Which made it that much more obvious when Sairus visibly startled as Owen grabbed his thigh. Looking down at the digits before they were removed, he cleared his throat. Hands reached to adjust his tie. The Weatherfare hated dressing up, sort of hated wearing clothes in general. Would rather be in his lynx form than anything else, but he could be compliant.
Tears dissolved and makeup in check, Dite was able to hold Owen's gaze again. "I don't know much," she admitted, pulling away from her husband. One hand lifted to push a lock of hair behind her ear. "You know how she is. She will give you enough to think you're informed, but not enough to actually make a move." She pulled her clutch into her lap, producing her phone from within it. Fingers flitted across the screen and it lit up at her touch. "She was spending a lot of time at this bar. Uh," she paused, holding the phone closer as she sifted through a stream of messages. "It's called the One Night Stand." She frowned at the name." I met her there one time. She was…" She was what? Different? A flirtatious, chain smoking alcoholic? Purple eyes flickered to Owen, and she decided to keep those details to herself.
"The bar is downtown. It's possible she still goes there. Or that someone might be able to tell you more. Obviously, I would just ask her where she is now, but she's flighty. She doesn't like having tabs kept on her." That aside, she could be gone in an instant. Halfway across the world and lost to all of them as soon as Dite sent a message. "I'm sorry this has to be so complicated."
