The abrupt change in mood was not difficult to detect. Children were more preceptive of moods than most people realized and the shift in his brother's eyes was also evident to him. Both of his ears perked forward attentatively then and he listened carefully to everything that was being said to him. The fact that it had been a member of Storm -- the leader, no less -- that had attacked Gabriel surprised him greatly. He had met more than one stranger from the pack and both had been particularly kind to him, despite the fact that they had both been wolves.
The explanation Gabriel gave of his father only furthered his confusion. Arkham had heard the phrase before -- "not being yourself" was not such an uncommon thing. Everyone had their off days, right? Hell, he had just done something that was atypical of him, but that didn't mean anything bad, right?
Storm?he wondered then,
I didn't know Storm was bad.The words sounded so silly on his tongue though; perhaps it was just because bad seemed like such a childish word.
Phasma was nice,he added quietly, feeling a little foolish but still a little confused about where all the packs stood in relation to Inferni.

What do you mean?More elaboration was needed, but he did find himself feeling a little comforted at the fact that Gabriel did not seem to think Rachias was in any horrible danger (or at least, he was pretending to think that).
