just putting a last post up hurrr!
Teme Lupus is by Alaine!
Despite the anger coursing through the young males body, he could see he was losing this almost-battle. While he and Cody had come to no blows over the accusation, it was clear who'd come out victor. Lena remained at her brothers side, having been pushing against him to stop she did not return to Temeraire to continue their little play date. He knew it wouldn't happen- Cody had come and trampled all over their fun, even if Lena had almost been squashed in the falling chunk of building. Still, Tem had been able to get her out of the way in time, he'd saved her life. And all he got in return was an angry brother. A scowl dropped his features as he saw Cody nudging his sister none-too-gently back the way she'd come. Her protests were cut off quickly as her brother revealed their impending departure.
But she doesn't want to go! He started to move forward but was cut off when Cody once again raised his voice. His words seemed to have the desired effect and even Temeraire couldn't deny that her brother was right, as begrudingly as he did so. His anger remained however, because now he knew there was nothing he could do. The 'thanks' was shot at him and he felt his lips curling as one last snarl came from him. He didn't want the boys thanks, not one bit. As Cody used move force to get Lena to move, he heard her soft goodbye and sighed. The anger dissipated and he watched her being pushed home with a hung head. Bye Lena... He spoke softly now, upset that his fun had been ruined. With a huff, the boy turned and began to head for home.
