carve your name [challenge]

Cascade waited, avidly wolf-watching, but a sudden familiar and brash voice made her wince - both internally and externally. Ashmedai, cheerfully shouting about making bets and attempting to drag the perennially-amused young Atreides into it too. Eep. She walked a thin line with Valentine at times as it was without letting his son cause some sort of diplomatic incident with whichever idiot managed to come out on top in this fight. She was supposed to be his mentor - well, apparently he was picking up on all her bad traits and none of her more responsible ones. He wasn't like her - his father and his family had him set up to leap to some high position in Ala's wolf culture, he wasn't just some low-born half breed bitch. He couldn't afford to act the way she did, and Valentine would probably kill her (metaphorically?) if she encouraged his complete lack of respect. It definitely wouldn't be the right thing for a friend to do, let alone a partner. She fixed Ashmedai with a warning gaze, one brow raised, and addressed him with a flat tone she'd never used with him before. "Ashmedai, either sit and be quiet, or go home. This isn't the time."

(OOC: Excuse me posting a second time, just wanted to get it in before the fight so she can shut up and watch)
