Moonspear You make wine from sour grapes

Arrille kept his eyes up at Maude's as Maude spoke, and he had to admit, he felt rather cozy. It had been a while since either of his parents had attempted to comfort him in such a way. Then again, he never really had reason to be comforted in such a way. And while Maude may have been right, Arrille had asked to come along, and he felt they had come this way for nothing. With Maude dragging him along behind, slowing them down because of how young the boy was. 

Maude urged the young boy to follow, and with one final glance back, even managing a small smile to Charon at his offer, then went to follow Maude back to wherever maude planned to take him next.
