Stone Circle sticks

riley had hoped for a little bit of a fight in charles; he watched flatly as the stick was strewn, with no motion to go after it. looking into charles' eyes, riley saw little fire there -- that was exactly what he liked to see.

he was about to pounce on charles instead (maybe even chew his ear instead of a boring crunchy stick) when leta arrived. freezing mid-motion, riley swung towards the girl and sized her up with a flinty squint. this was the girl that had gotten hurt; riley wondered if greyback was somewhere nearby watching -- if so, he resented that.

eyeballing leta rather unslyly, riley shoved charles roughly -- charles was a better talker, and riley wanted to see if his brother would say anything stupid, before he said anything first.
