Revui did not know why he had reacted so strongly to his brother when he returned, but they were bigger now and stronger too, so perhaps some part of it was a natural rivalry that even their twinning could not rival. When his father brought up the topic of Yami, though, Revui's gaze hardened. He couldn't help the challenging gleam that entered his stormy gaze, furious at the very thought of his missing sibling — not angry with her absence really, but irate because it seemed like the easiest of emotions for him.
