Harmless Angel

"Tell me more. Tell me more about your parents and you." 

Since the emperor has requested Magnus to tell him about his parents and him, Magnus did not close his mouth or even stop himself from talking and telling the emperor all the memories that he still remembers from his childhood with his parents.

Octavius has never in his entire life liked people who talk a lot or talk to him about unnecessary things, he always prefers when people in general talks to him only when it's something very important, but now he can't deny that he was internally enjoying and feeling the warmth inside his chest increases while carefully listening to what Magnus was saying for the last forty minutes without feeling bored in fact he would call off meetings with ministers and postpone anything just so that he can sit here and listen to Magnus, but...

Was Octavius really listening to everything that Magnus was saying?
