Aiuti! Aiuti!

Lillianna was going to go do as Sparrow did - after a moment of calming down, of regaining her composure. But no, Sparrow had run off. Just as she had... repeated herself a thousand times as if Lillianna was an idiot, without even caring or seeing if Lillianna had heard or listened, she had run off, assuming that Lillianna would dissolve again. She couldn't help the annoyance - or perhaps she could. She channeled it, to focus on that instead of what had just happened. It was perhaps how she was coping; how she was holding it together.

But a bit of that was more than just hyped up - i was genuine, a slight spark of anger at what she perceived as a distinct lack of trust and Sparrow acting as if she was better, and to distract herself further Lillianna planned a meeting with the girl - she'd discuss the issues precisely, concisely, to allow no room for interpretation, or argument.

Now was not the time.

And yet, Lillianna couldn't help but pause when Sparrow called. She did not call for the pack. She called for her family. And it seemed, only the family. Did the girl not realize that others of the pack might care? Why call for only family? It was almost a punc hin the gut, and it was during that moment she realized that what Harmony had said during that yearling meeting was precisely true. There was a divide, Destruction and non-Destructions, and the yearlings were doing nothing to help it.

She'd hover in the back, eyes dark as she would watch the gathering of family. Her eyes would focus on Lark first, though she had no doubt that she would remain out of focus, unnoticed; after all, she was in the darkness, a hoverer. Just as she paid no mind to Quake, those coming to Sparrow's call would not heed her.

At the same time, there was a temptation, and it would take only a moment before she gave into it. Tossing her head back, she howled herself, calling for all of the pack... not just the select part called the Destructions. This was not merely an event for Destructions only. She would reinforce Sparrow's call, no spite in it whatsoever, but with a much stronger, a much... less panicked call. It was almost to prove a point, but it would be a point that perhaps even Sparrow would not notice. It was purely a distraction for Lillianna. She let it fade, and her eyes would seek Lark - the only member to arrive thus far - one more time before she turned and headed back the way she came. Her point was proven, her distraction made.
