There was acid on his tongue and venom on his breath; the dark man did not take kindly to the notion that his family was an embarrassment. And yet, here was Jacinto, the perpetual smear on the family name, choosing lovers with such ignorance that it reduced the older Lykoi to actually talking to said smear. Columbine oftened enjoyed entertaining the notion that he was above his entire family, especially his lighter brother - in his own mind, that was the case and he was sticking by it. The younger man was clearly frightened, a coward in every right, and Columbine felt his hatred increase, a shocking development as he had not thought it could get any greater. A snarl lifted his lips when the boy - Jacinto could not be considered a man - spoke to him with such disrespectful insolence. Did he not realize that, in addition to being an inferior being in general, he was also ranked below Columbine? Family, in this case, did not matter. It hadn't for what felt like many years.
Do not play dumb with me, brother, Columbine spat, red eyes narrow and posture dominating. Your actions and your choice of sex-toy is a shame upon our family. She is common, coarse, and not worthy of any Lykoi - even you, he sneered. The male crossed his arms over his broad chest, beginning to pace with agitation. I cannot believe you would pick someone so...common. Mi dios, Jacinto, what is wrong with you? His words, though not inadvertant, spoke of years of resentment and disgust boiling over in the ruined mind of the oldest Lykoi brother.
