Rosalyn did not doubt their actions for a second.  Rusalka had been without a foundation for too long, listing sideways with a marching string of leaders who came and went.  Challenges went, heedless of merit or what result they might have on the crew they were here to protect.  In her paranoia, she saw in Ying just another Vectoringex.... another Firefly.... another Caiaphas.  Wolves who looked to their own and cast out the rest.

She would not have it.

In doing so they were hypocrites, but she did not see that far.  To her this was right, the greater good for a pack that had seen too much unrest and was finally coming to know calm.

Mei's outburst made her bristle, but she fell silent, not dropping her head one bit.  If they left that would make this all easier.  She hadn't demanded it, all they'd needed was for them to submit.  All she'd wanted was proof they would not displace them.  So far, all she'd seen was the opposite.  Sisters who followed only one lead, and a lead who followed only her own volition.

Erzulie spoke only a snippet, but Rosalyn felt the ones at her back.  She turned and saw Nieve hovering behind, and another, the newcomer Harps.  

You are barely here, carrying strange scents, and when you do return, you seek only to rise.  You do not fight?  Rosalyn barked out a laugh.  She is right.  We are not yours.  This is Rusalka, and here, loyalty is shared.  Places are earned.  She stepped forward aggressively.  Give it or leave.  Aningan could overrule her if he chose.  She did not seek to topple him.  But she would do what he would not; she was no naive boy with clouded eyes and a divided heart.

made an assumption here, let me know if it is too much <3
