Quinn nodded and he looked back at Flynn. "Less so for me than for Mal." He reached out and he took Flynn's hand in his. "Do you want to sit down?"
"Why are you in London?" Flynn blurted out, ignoring the whole sitting down thing.
"I go to the Uni here."
"But...why are you going by your surname?" It was all very weird. And Flynn was beyond happy to see Ardal, but it weirded him out too. He was stalling having to deal with it, by asking questions.
"After I got back to Whitehead, my parents wouldn't let me out of their sight. Kept worrying I'd run off again, which...I might have... And then I got threatened. Your brother's friends." Quinn said that like it was a curseword. "So they sent me to live with my Aunt and Uncle. In the country here. I looked for you. All over Dublin, because my parents wouldn't have let you stay, but my Aunt and Uncle have always been better people. They said if I could find you, you could come live with us. But I never could."
"I was..here mostly." Flynn said softly. "Maybe...tea's good now." He said to Spectre.
