Really, their leader's pacifistic ways were getting on his nerves. He could understand not wanting to engage in violence, but the decisions he was making would only hurt the clan in the end. His friend was hot-headed, sure, but he couldn't help agreeing with him in most situations. Roy wasn't an idiot, and he was a natural leader. He had seen it himself first-hand. He had rooted for him, supported him in his journey towards the top. He knew that he would make his mark in history eventually.
Hughes strides onto the scene, the loud voices causing quite the commotion. He surveys those gathered before taking a seat close to his friend. He listens to what little he hadn't missed, the promise of a compromise with another group catching his attention. What the hell was he talking about? Oh yeah, that ghost that had attacked Roy earlier. He definitely wasn't happy about the incident, and even more-so with how they were deciding to handle it right now. His face sours, but he holds his tongue for now, at least until the bobcat himself speaks up.
As they go on, back and forth, a murmur of discontentment ripples through the crowd. He can feel the tension growing in the air. Still, he sits high, raising his chin as he finally speaks up, Suite's words enough to spring him into action. "Even if his decision is foolish and simply wishful thinking? I know he wants to make peace, but some people just can't be reasoned with," he points out, turning to the female with an unusually stern expression on his face. It was a lot different from his usual self. "So, what do we do until they decide to attack us? Roll over and take it like a bunch of mutts? Our inaction will only prompt them to come after us. They'll think we're weak," he keeps his tone even, unlike Roy, who he nudges with his shoulder to try and calm down. Still, he knows it probably won't be of much use. He was already fired up.
"SPEECH"
