[ When he arrives at the lake, he finds them, his brothers. Though he wasn't aware they would be waiting for him, somehow he isn't surprised. Like him, they've been caught by death's outstretched hand and warped, changed into something new and different. If he were in his right mind, he might be afraid or angry about that -- certainly outraged at being taken against his will, used by the house for whatever this is supposed to be. But as it is, all he wants to do is slide into the dark green waters and linger there forever beneath the surface, in the cold and the silence, waiting for someone to come and warm him.
They're alone for now, just him and them, the world thawing around them as they explore the rushes and mud of the lake. Armand makes his way to the shallows and invites them to lie with him there, where they can watch the mortals scurry around the grounds while they tangle themselves together and twine flowers into each others' hair, all sweet and enticing innocence.
He runs his hand -- clawed, webbed -- up over a flat belly, over soft scales, feeling himself being touched in turn. His eyes are big and liquid-black; he gazes softly at his brothers, leaning in to trade kisses with them. It's not as good as finding his love, his eternal companion, but it's still sweet enough to calm his hunger for touch for a little while. ]
We will show them what they're missing. [ He vows it softly. ] What they're ignoring. How fascinating and beautiful we are.
