The meeting was tedious and all together a dreadful affair. Other's looked at him out of the corners of their eyes, but never directly at him, for fear of enraging Cronus. Cronus, who had been trading barbed comments with him in between notices about anything that has been happening in the Titan realm. Rhea sat next to Cronus, eyes firmly on her plate as she ate mechanically. In the middle of some Titan complaining about something he really didn't care about he used his powers to brush against her mind and feel her emotions.

He felt the skittishness of having to sit next to her abusive husband, fear of him as well, but he didn't expect the excitement. He couldn't determine what she was excited about until she met his eyes for no more than a second and grinned. She was excited to see him, he could understand. After all, Prometheus was raising her child secretly and she probably wanted to know about him.

He wasn't very proficient in projecting his thoughts into others yet since he had begun to study it recently and didn't have all day to do anything to do with studying because he needed to entertain Zeus. However, he could get simple sentences to others if he tried hard enough and could properly see them. So, his eyes drooped a bit and his power welled slightly causing his brother to stiffen beside him. His brother couldn't wield "worldly powers" like him but had been around Prometheus enough to know when he was using them. He didn't say anything or give any cues to what Prometheus was doing only relaxing once again, then nudging Prometheus's foot slightly.

"Midnight. My room. Come. Tell about. Him." he projected to her, his forehead beginning to sweat.

She gave an almost imperceptible nod to her plate, even though he could see her wide eyes from where he sat. He brushed against her mind again and felt overwhelming joy that almost covered up the fear of her husband. She was a mother who was denied her children, she would always be somewhat broken inside without them.

He pulled back from her mind and cut off his magic, rejoining the meeting, exuding a bored air around him as other Titans quibbled about this and that. Epimetheus gave him a sidelong look before his eyes darted to Rhea then back to Cronus. It was slight, almost imperceptible and Prometheus didn't acknowledge it in the slightest. He trusted his brother with his life and knew Epimetheus would never betray him. He wouldn't outright tell him about Zeus, but he would now suspect another answer to why Prometheus did not want to return to the the Hall of the Titans.

"Prometheus, it is your turn to speak, what say you?" Cronus boomed from across the room.

"Nothing."

"You have not returned from the earthen realm in quite some time. Why is that?" Cronus questioned.

They hall grew hushed as they regarded Cronus and Prometheus, wondering what Prometheus would say is his reason and thinking they knew what it truly was in the first place. Prometheus smiled ferally at Cronus, he could tell his response unnerved the other Titan, before answering.

"I find that question tedious, Cronus as we both know why I am not here and instead am in the earthen realm."

"Why is that exactly?"

"So, I don't commit mass murder. Everybody knows I'm a bit unbalanced, don't you agree? I like coitus with men, I can go insane in an instant, and I hate practically everyone here including you."

The room was quiet as Prometheus and Cronus stared each other down, then Cronus's eyes slid from Prometheus's. Standing from his seat, making it scrape loudly against the floor behind him he walked from across the room and to the head table. He stood in front of Cronus and whispered so only he could hear.

"I've almost killed you before Cronus. Don't push me to succeed, if I return and hear that you have been hurting Rhea, my brother, or anyone else I actually like. I will not hesitate to rip off your head and eat your fucking eyeballs then burn your corpse to ashes. Do you understand?"

Cronus gulped and nodded softly, staring at his plate. Prometheus brushed against his mind and felt his fear and smirked as he turned on his heel and left the hall like he had years ago. However, this time, not even his brother made a sound.
