Rage — misguided and sudden, the kindling of a wildfire set to blaze beneath the spark of decision not discussed prior. Adrift the child as lost the comfort of other, proximity enough the hushed sounds of movement and breath encapsulated and soothe, wide the eyes that moved between the rest. Harsh the words they carelessly threw at Rhine, as though choice had been his and not offer put forth for Vaas to decide alone, confusion and the sparks of his own anger begun. It was kit his however, a pale ghost of that others felt, choking as throat closed about it.

Gentle words, reassurance he may not give yet was forced to, explanation calming the tides. Still it lingered, the seating heat scorching his skin, coat bristled in such manner he seemed no child, lore a mound of fluff.
