Distracted though he was by the explanation, he didn't miss the way Zevran seemed to snuggle closer, the way he tried to assuage his anger, to apologize for something that wasn't even his fault. Before he trusted himself to reply, Abel took a deep breath, held it for a few moments, and let it out in a long, slow sigh. "You didn't upset me," he said reassuringly, his tones considerably gentler than they had been a few moments ago, as he set his wine glass down on his nightstand. With nothing to distract him that might spill all over his bed and make a mess now, the taller blond wrapped an arm around Zev's shoulders and drew him close, while his other hand reached up to cup his cheek and gently brush his thumb over his skin. He kissed the top of his head again. "Thank you for telling me, I'm glad you did. What upsets me is their methods, that they'd just.. take or buy children for those reasons, but that isn't really important anymore. What matters is you left. You left and you're here now, but I'm still sorry you had to go through all of that. I... It doesn't sound like it was easy or even remotely pleasant."

"Ah, sorry; maybe I didn't phrase that as well as I could've," he admitted somewhat sheepishly. s**t, he hadn't offended or upset him, had he? But he didn't seem that upset about it, so maybe it was okay... Still, Abel gave the shorter blond a gentle squeeze and rested his cheek atop his fine blond hair. "I didn't before you started telling me more about yourself, though the shopping thing was a big tip-off. I don't think it's obvious, no, so don't worry about it too much." No, encouraging independent, critical thinking was probably low on their list of objectives for new recruits. Young, impressionable recruits. "You know if you ever need any help with anything, decisions or whatever it is, you know I'd be more than happy to help, yeah?"

And you have me.
The words held a different meaning, he knew that, and yet his heart skipped a beat all the same. "Yes, I suppose that's true," he ceded with a smile and a kiss to Zevran's forehead again. Both memories left him feeling uncomfortable, mostly the latter, and mostly because he knew there was a distinct possibility that he may not have seen Zevran again after that had he not been there to help him.
"Ah, yeah." That. Well, he really shouldn't be surprised that Zev was curious about certain details from that night. Well, he could more or less answer that without revealing too much, so... "I did recognize it, yeah. I... never knew her before, but I'd heard of her. I never knew how she obtained what information she had on me, but hearing her name and realizing where I knew it from told me what had been bugging me the past two years."
