"Over a year," he replied, the tip of his tail flickering up. "He was quite good at making enemies and expecting his safeguards to hold. He hadn't quite counted on pissing somecat off enough for them to storm in and shoot him in his own castle though."

"Whoever did it had no shortage of guts," Darrien commented and began to fidget with his sleeve again. "I just wish I had known sooner, or had mustered the courage to do it myself."

"You lacked the motivation," Mistoffelees replied dryly before remembering that implied he knew who had done it and why.

Darrien simply stared at his shoes and his ears flinched back a little more. "It was more of a lack of trying."

"Well, it's hard to try something when you're not here," Mistoffelees replied, edge of anger in his voice.

Darrien look up from his shoes and shot Mistoffelees a hurt look. "I know."

"So why are you here then?" the smaller tom asked, one ear flickering back. "Why now after so long, especially since you didn't even know he was dead."

"Because from the moment I left I never really wanted to leave," He shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly.

Mistoffelees frowned at him. "A lot has changed, you know. The city, the world, the cats here."

"Yes, the world never really slows down does it?"

Eyes narrowing, Mistoffelees shrugged. "No, it usually doesn't. It's what happens when you leave, things keep..." he shook his head. "Alright. I thought I wasn't angry at you anymore and then you had to show up and prove me wrong, didn't you?"

"You have every right to be angry," Darrien sighed and let his gaze wander away from Mistoffelees again. "In fact, I'm probably more angry with myself right now than you are with me. It's quite understandable, given the circumstances."

Mistoffelees gave him a long, annoyed look. "Well, as long as I have the right," he snapped. "Because I just don't know what I might have done without you giving that to me."

Darrien was quiet for a long moment, his eyes blankly staring at the corner of the desk. His tail gave a small twitch before he smirked slightly. "You haven't really changed that much," He said softly. "You're still the same old Mistoffelees."

Mistoffelees barked out a harsh laugh, trying not to allow himself to go hysterical at that. "No, no, I'm really not," he said, shaking his head. "It's been far too long and too many things have happened. I'm surprised I'm still recognizable. Look, I even have to wear color now," he said, resting a paw on the red tie he was wearing. "I'm not the same person anymore, Darrien."
