[M] Until Silence Is Broken

"A pet? You realize they are a big responsibility correct," the man asked his son looking at him curiously. He then nodded to his son watching him eat. "All that you're eating? You pet has to eat similar amounts if not more depending on what I get you." He wasn't sure what the boy would want or what he should really get his son. The issue came with the big brother and what he'd do to it. Part of him would always worry what his other son did and thought of in his free time. The little control he had over him was considered cruel by some because of the methods that he had come to acquire this control. He looked at his little boy that needed him so much. He smiled softly not really able to deny him what he wanted. If he really wanted this pet then he'd get the pet. But what to get him.

A dog? No that wouldn't be too good. He might thing it too similar to a guard dog. He wanted something the boy could cuddle and love. He'd get him a small fox. That seemed better. It was small, cuddly, and wouldn't eat as much as a dog so it'd be a bit easier for the boy. It also ate both fruit and meat. "I'll get you a small fox. Is there any particular color I should look for?"

The girl came in with the cart and the food. "The Master sends his regards as always and he sent some herbs to help with your... soreness," the servant said standing back from the tray having taken the lid off the food so the girl could inspect it. She wanted her to see what she'd be getting for dinner. "The herbs and spice are suppose to be taken in a warm bath. I will prepare it for you if I need to."
