Rather than fall to pieces, Eljay managed to give a perfectly reasonable response to Gannet. Elwood released a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding; truthfully, he wasn't sure if he could have handled his adult son's meltdown, what with all the stress he was carrying on his own shoulders. He flashed a watery smile at Eljay, just as Peregrine stepped in and provided a more detailed answer, agreeing with what Eljay himself had said.
He then suggested a patrol to Gannet and the boy obliged his father, though there was a noticeable droop to his ears and tail. Elwood felt bad, especially since Gannet hadn't done anything wrong -- in fact, he had been trying to do the opposite by cheering up his cousin. "Thanks for the breakfast," he called after the Redhawks, then shuffled back towards Eljay. He nosed his son's cheek reassuringly and murmured, "Want to go see what Liffey and Lagan are up to?"
Elwood stepped away, hoping that Eljay would accompany him -- but if not, he would hunt down the twins himself for some family time.
