And the weirdness was back as Markus watched Fiona listen to her owner's voice, hop out of the water and back into his arms. He supposed having her hop around the sand wasn't the best bet (maybe? He wasn't one hundred percent sure on that, either), but still.
Fish weren't technically supposed to do that. So, just a little more weirdness on that one, because he hadn't told himself how strange everything was in the last ten minutes.
But Markus sees that look and sets his into something neutral. Non-threatening. All the while berating himself on the inside because how had he spoken so easily on something when it was clearly important? He didn't want to do something that might take away something Connor enjoyed doing.
"If he doesn't mind, then I don't think I'm needed to do anything." Markus smiled pleasantly. "You seem to have it under control. I'm sure I'll be busy acquainting myself with this place, that will take up most of my time."
All the food and cleaning \o/ Though Markus doesn't want Connor to feel bad
