You’re not exactly known for breaking the rules, Than. Forgive me for thinking you would follow his orders just like everyone else. Just like Meg.
[Yes, things were complicated with Megaera. Or...more complicated. But he’d still hoped she might see reason. It’s her pride more than anything, he thinks, that keeps her under his father’s thumb. Well, that and a healthy enjoyment of her work...]
You just showed up out of the blue after I hadn’t seen you in gods know how long, while all the rest of Father’s forces were dead set on stopping me. How was I supposed to know whose side you would be on?
[Is he still feeling a bit of a sting over Thanatos not being able to find even five minutes over the course of that huge stretch of time to pop back and say hello? Maybe.]
