Moonspear Ah, decisions

Ame seemed as dismayed as he was, Charon realised as he looked at her, and the young Alpha looked back at Dash, still feeling the sting of disappointment, to see his reaction. It was hard to read Dash, though, and Charon gathered little information from him. He did try to explain, but Charon wasn't really convinced. Perhaps it was because in Charon's eyes, any admission of weakness made you, well, weak, and obviously Dash was admitting a whole lot of weakness.

To top off the weakness cherry pie, Dash then apologised for something that needed no apologising -- the only strong thing about this whole weaknessfest, namely the fact that he'd come forward with this shit in the first place. "Whatever, it's cool," Charon said nonchalantly, deciding that the best thing he could do for Dash both as a subordinate and a friend was to play it cool and not show his disappointment. He smiled airily as he said, "Like Ame said, we'll grant your request." The irritation was gone now, shoved under the carpet, though perhaps at a later time when he and Ame were alone, Charon might bring it up again to rant out how he really felt about this.
