Morningside Cuesta the music's too loud

No. This man did not just get to get permission from her children to do whatever they wanted. That was not how the world worked. So as he stepped away she stepped forward after him. He was the single target of her ire, her fur spiking along her spine, tail raised, ears forward, the whole nine yards of dominance down to the bared teeth and snarl. The whole Galadriel-going-evil metaphor would work a lot better if Arbiter at all resembled elven royalty on a normal day. Nah. She wasn't so elegant. Still, the pale devil roared, You do not decide anything for my children! She wanted him to cower. To realize that she would probably have been happy to kill him if that didn't mean Vex and Haunt would probably scatter to the wind and she didn't want to do that again for many reasons.

But she spun to face Haunt and Vex then, Kigipigak in her periphery where she was going to be quick to spin on him again if he moved too suddenly. She wasn't aggressive at them, but she was still definitely frustrated at this whole mess. I have my answers -- he's likely an untrustworthy liar and we all deserve better. And you insist on going now instead of when you are old enough to venture on your own? Thanks to him there isn't another leader around to deal with things in the pack -- and what about your sister? Arbiter had a solution in mind if they insisted but dammit she would highly prefer they just wait. It would be so much easier. She didn't trust this uncle of theirs at all if he thought randomly taking children under five months old on a trip was a great idea -- then again, maybe he was related to Kaertok...
