Pentheus grinned over at Alexander and seemed to perk up at the idea of his lover having other siblings. "You have a brother?" He asked curiously. "Do you have any more brothers? Or even any sisters? I'm an only child, so I've always wondered what it was like to have siblings. Perhaps I can meet them one day, maybe even before I get too big and wind up bed-ridden."
The thought of his children having more family members aside for their own parents delighted Pentheus, but he tried his best to remain calm and not get his hopes up. "I used to be a very impatient boy myself," he added while beginning to serve Alexander a hearty helping of meat on one of the plates. "I've been teaching myself patience since my parents passed away, but now I find that I need to be even more patient for the sake of the children since mothers are meant to be that way."
