Lark didn't know how to deal with his feelings over this. His sweet, innocent sister had been hurt on purpose by a stranger - and he was certain if he found out who did it, if he had the chance, he'd tear their throat from their neck without a moment of hesitation. That's what he thought he'd do, at least. It seemed very possible in his head.

It was surprising to see Lillie here. He'd been confused about the short trip they'd shared together, but luckily he hadn't been allowed much time to think about it, with all this with Finch.  The voice that reached out to him from outside his den didn't sound like Lillie's normal tone - it was pained and almost panicked, and though quite groggy, he felt a bit worried for her. She couldn't stop hearing.. her screams? He felt his stomach turn at the thought. "Why would you say that to me?" he asked suddenly, his voice - once tired and calm - now slightly agitated as he grew more awake.

How was that something she could just.. say to him? Just like that? Of course he knew Finch was sick. But now here she was, implying that she was having nightmares of her screams - of her screams of fear and of pain. His face hardened as he stared out at her, her silhouette illuminated just slightly by the light of moon. "You just come here.. in the middle of the night.. and give me a picture of my sister screaming in pain?" He didn't know how to react other than to clench his jaw and wait for what she had to say.
