Sawtooth Spire Why So Serious

Aariak did not seem intent on feeding Sitamat, either. To this, he shrugged. Actually, Aariak has been distant every since he arrived. Why is that? he wondered, clueless. Maybe there was some underlying reason similar to the two who took their leave before. Knowing nothing of Aariak's aspirations, the wolverine thought that there must be a reason for his continued distance, but what...? What could it possibly be?
The pallid male summoned him. Struck with indecision, Tatsuya deliberated. Before long, he thought it best to go with Aariak. If he was leaving, that would make the Delta the only underling left and he didn't want that. Maybe the parents want some alone time with their children? Who would he be to deny them that? With a whimper, he nosed four's round head before rising. Sorry lil fella. Maybe next time. He made to leave, nearly departing entirely...before stopping to say his farewell to Tonravik and her mate. Gazing lovingly upon the scene – promising to cherish this moment always – Tatsuya turned tail and left, breaking off into a gallop to reach Aariak.
