Rei of course didn't seem to understand quite why the Prince was apologizing, linking his actions to work related problems rather than personal discomfort or insult. It made the melancholy prince smile faintly to himself at the idea of such a clever creature being so emotionally dim. He didn't feel the need to correct or explain himself to the fae though, the fae had not asked for his tutelage in this or any other subject and so it was common sense that dictated the Prince didn't. Besides, he somewhat enjoyed him the way he was, oddly charming and innocent, it was things like that that spurred the prince to tease the fae and he'd only known the creature two days! Yet the boy was already rapidly becoming his favourite servant, perhaps though that was due to the fact their relationship wasn't quite like that and his man servants. The fae despite his small, sweet body was powerful and strong, dangerous even. He'd seen the way he'd looked at his sister, heard that little growl when he was called hideous, there was something deeply moving to know that the assassin was already protective of his charge. Of course Alessandro might have been wrong for all he knew, the growl might have been at some dander on his clothing or at a fly, or a number of other things but the heir to the throne didn't dare ask.
The answer seemed though to become clear as the Fae started speaking of his sister and how he'd prefer not to pass judgement on her that the Prince may have been right in his assumption. It upset him a little that his sister may have made such a poor impression to the fae, after all, in a way, they two were the first real glimpse into human life the fae had had in a long time and they were showing themselves up. Though in a way it was also pleasing in a small dark way he wouldn't like to admit too, it meant she couldn't, purposely or otherwise, steal the fae from him. Then Rei went on to compliment him, tell him how he preferred Alessandro as he was when the pair of them were alone rather than the farce he put on for everyone else around him; aside the Meister and Rei of course, and once more the human had a smile upon his face. Lightly tapping the void space beside him on the bed the lounging prince laid back once more, "You are one of the few I'm afraid Rei and while I don't mind the opinion you have of my sister but if it is negative please at least be civil to her. She may seem harsh but it was the way she was raised to behave and I love her despite it."
With a deep breath the Prince sighed, "So, I guess going to a tavern tonight is out of the question, right? What do you propose we do? Once you've eaten supper of course, you can have the rest of mine too if you like, I've lost my appetite for the time being."
