Heron Lake Plateau Tyrants and kings both meet the same fate, strung up at your city gate

He made a face and shook his head in a way that almost certainly expressed something along the lines of, 'I don't get it either, people are weird.'  People were weird and everyone had different likes and dislikes, so there was no reason a bird would be free of someone randomly disliking them.  The only question was going to be if Colt would put up with Towhee as a beta instead of an alpha or if he'd ditch the whole idea because of whatever issues were really digging at him.  Really, Quixote was just guessing about the whole thing.  The only thing he was really sure of was that both of them had to have screwed up what should have been an ok-but-awkward conversation into a disaster, and maybe because of that, stuff could maybe be mended.  Perhaps that was a too-positive look at things, but he could hope, and until proven otherwise, he'd continue to do so.

What about the thing with him and Moonspear?  We're farther now, but...  Towhee said he'd caused some trouble there, right?  With the mountains blocking the two packs off from each other pretty well, it probably wasn't going to be an issue, but just in case... And if they were still the closest pack, did they want to bother with saying hi?  Towhee had gone there in the past, but should Quixote go there in the future?  Speaking of the future, he didn't have much complaints about it.  At least to Quixote, it sounded like a traditional spread of duties between leaders, maybe, but perhaps he was reading too much into it, I'm sure it'll get all worked out eventually, but yeah.  May take some time.  Some time so he could quit being an idiot and actually act the role that got chucked on to him.  At least things should be calm here -- the only issues that would hopefully appear would be those caused by themselves.  It was perhaps lucky for Quixote that was the case, maybe the closest thing to training wheels that he'd get.  He just didn't know how long it'd be until some real trouble showed reared its ugly head -- there were far too many important things already on his calendar to really think much about it.
