Moonspear and breathe in time [m]

Frustration bubbled up in Charon's gut when his mate denied the help he sought out for her. His words were laced with the venom that he felt in his heart when he spoke, pointedly and commanding: "Yes, you do, you --" But at that moment both Dash and Floki arrived. They asked what had happened, which brought about all sorts of different mixed feelings in his gut. He did not wish to acknowledge what had happened, yet as they arrived he realised the painful truth, and his own mistake in calling them here, that the scene still stack of the aftermath of consummation, of sex.

Amekaze used their arrival as her getaway. As much as Charon wanted to scream at her, to stop her, to command her to stay, he knew that he could not. With a dark frown on his face, he watched her leave, intent to check on her later on.

He then turned to Dash and Floki and said, "Lazarus attacked Ame. He... we got into a scuffle and he fell down the mountain. I'm not sure we can get a clear view of where he'll be, exactly... But we should go look. Try to find him, and in case he still lives, kill him." Or worse, he darkly though, but he did not speak those thoughts. He did not mention any of the sordid details, too ashamed and unwilling to accept what had happened yet to say it out loud for the moment. It was hard to fathom that he had now been in the same position as his brother.
