Silas can't piece it together. Through a glare of his own he's only able to manage a hiss through clenched teeth.

"What...!?"

He shakes his head, balling his fists.

"What did you say!?"

"Father, my leaving wasn't Silas' fault!" she says quickly, abandoning her fear for the moment.

"I made her get out of my head! It wasn't Silas!"

Seth quickly turns his glare towards Freya.

"I'm not done."

The anger is slowly slipping more and more into his words, even as he turns back to look at Silas.

"What have you accomplished, being here? What have you proven? The only things I've heard are of you being hostile to other agents, and playing mind games. You have done nothing, and yet you continue to act as if you are entitled to the world. You continue to lie to me, when you should be praising your good fortune that I have not disowned you, yet."

"I've done nothing!?" He has the urge to swing, but is much too wise to act upon it.

"I've bested everyone in combat without the use of powers! I've completed missions! I've..."

'...I've done nothing.'

He hangs his head, not wanting his father to see the reddening of his eyes.

Freya shuts up real fast. As much as she wants to protect her brother, she knows there's nothing she can do.

Seth watches Silas for a few seconds, ensuring that his son doesn't look back up at him, before turning towards Freya.

"And you. You should know better than to go out on your own. You will never do so again, do you understand me?"

When Seth looks away Silas brings the back of his hand up to the corner of his eye.

"But Father, please. What happened was long ago! Humans without any special skills go out on their own, I should be more than capable to be by myself!"

Barring the...unfortunate incident.

"And were you?"

He asks, pointedly.

"What do you suppose was the tipping point of Tamara deciding to end her life, last night? Did you wish to hazard a guess, or just believe me when I tell you that I already know?"

"It was an unnecessary gesture...."

He glances up, the fight from his tone all but faded as his voice rasps.

"I've been keeping tabs on Freya as she went out..."

"You can't mean she did that because of..."

Freya's brows furrow and she closes her eyes. Why was that woman so stupid?

"Unnecessary? She would not have been drugged had Tamara been allowed to keep watch over her."

Seth glances at his son, before looking back.

"She killed herself because she lost the two of you. She loved the two of you, even if she was unstable."

She was unstable before she got her powers, it only got worse when she couldn't block out others' thoughts.

Silas frowns, looking at he body.

Love was far too strong a word, but he did care for Destiny.

'It's not your fault, Freya. It's mine.'

'Don't pretend like I could ever believe that. You heard him. I pushed her over the edge.'

"It's not like I was never coming back..." she murmurs, glancing back at her mother again.

Mae would catch her look.

"You've lost your teacher. You have no reason to return here."

"What?!"

"Why would you stay?"

Seth asks honestly.

"You, at least, have not had a string of disappointments."

Silas also shoots a look to Freya when they tell her she's not coming back here! He's about to suggest her enrollment, but between the absurdity his parents would find in the suggest and his father's words he doesn't.

The latter causes Silas to turn and strike the crate in anger, burying his fist in the wood!

"It's not like I could make any mistakes!" she complains. "All I was allowed to do was practice with Tamara or seek out metas then come back home!"

Freya's hands clench and release.

"I could still learn here. Like the others. Go on the field and practice like-"

"No." Mae cuts her off.

Freya looks towards Seth pleadingly!

Seth glances towards Silas after his outburst of emotion, but says nothing.

Instead, he refocuses on his daughter.

"Why?"

He folds his arms in front of him.

"Why should we allow you to stay here, now that your best line of defense is gone and you have proven to have difficulty adapting to the world?"

Silas pulls his hand out, hiding it in his jacket as he says nothing.

'How do they expect you to learn without letting you learn?'

'I don't think they care that much if I become powerful with my power...'

"The only way I can adapt is by being exposed to it, Father. What am I going to do when you and mother aren't around? I won't have learned anything!"

Mae glances towards Seth. She already knew the answer but figured it was best to hear it from him.

Silas snorts a laugh, unable to catch himself in time!

"This is bullshit..." He mutters under his breath.

"...Who says I'll ever have one?" she asks almost carefully.

Mae looks towards Silas.

"Do you have something to say, Silas?"

"Freya wouldn't need me, Destiny, or anybody if you gave her some breathing room. That's why I left. You're smothering."

He's a little more lippy with mom.
