The Sunspire and his apologies come early

The boy sighed, and resisted rolling his eyes despite the great big urge. He needed this - he needed Rannoch to be on his side and he needed the protection of the pack. If he couldn't have that, then he was risking it all for nothing. Being here was dangerous for him, a fact that he couldn't forget.

Okay, so I was a little quiet on the details. But you saw how he reacted when he did learn my name! Screech was trying to play nice but it was getting pretty hard to keep his cool; even now, after everything, he couldn't stop the baseline of his personality from showing. He was really selfish and he sounded like he was on the verge of a tantrum. Just breathe, kid. Rannoch is family. Sorry, he murmured, and looked at the dirt. I was kind of focused on finding you again, but I'll... I'll be nice. At least whenever Rannoch is around.
