Not even his DOG.

"Think of it as a catalyst for action is all. And I am having to think responsibly before I can strike is all. It will be revealed in due time," he said pointedly. He did NOT want to discuss things here, even if he was sure there was no way in hell that someone could be listening in.

Like Damien's first reaction, a smile failed to find Sabel's lips this time around. "There's no career in Philosophy. Just a lot of talk and no action." And he didn't mean the guns blazing action either.

Turning his eyes to the ceiling, he frowned a little. He was sure he already knew the answer, had already heard it at one point or another, and really he didn't blame the man for his choice, but it was different being on the outside looking in than being on the inside looking out. "You don't have to strike. That child needs both parents, Damien. While you may think it honorable to die for them, you'll do nothing for either of them dead. Trust me, I know." If Damien knew him, he would know that Sabel wasn't talking about being cowardly and backing out to save his own skin. Someone long ago had told him to chose his battles wisely, and now, it seemed that same logic had to be passed on.

As for the rest of it, he would have to mind his curiosity and concern and wait.
