So much shit had happened since they'd found Finch. There'd almost been fighting when Sparrow had called them all together. Both Starling and Lillie (and Quake, too) had walked away. Starling had been so selfish that all he'd been thinking of, it seemed, was himself, and how he felt inadequate as a healer, and Lark didn't even know why Lillie had left at all. It all frustrated him - he couldn't help it if he tried. His solemn gaze pierced the darkness of night as he watched Lillie's silhouette shift.

"You can't sleep.." he started, his words chosen carefully.  "So you came here, waking me up from sleep, to remind me of how much pain my sister has been put through. As though I didn't know. And now I get to picture her screaming."  Lillie had always struck him as independent; but cruel? Selfish? He didn't really, truly think those things of her, but she seemed it suddenly, and he found a scowl forming on his lips. It was rare for him to really feel hurt, but he suddenly did. It was a raw and aching feeling, placed in the center of his chest, and he wanted to get rid of it.

"I'm the only one left where?" he'd ask sharply, slowly rising to all fours, though his body sagged slightly where he stood. Lillie hadn't come to see how he was.. she hadn't even asked, she'd just started talking and he found his stomach turning painfully as he waited for her answer.
