He gazed at Lillie with a level stare, his lips twitching slightly when she spoke. It was obvious that her and Sparrow had something between them, he wasn't sure if it was one more than the other or what. Or if it was moody teen angst. He was about to comment on it when she spoke again, saying that she wanted to bring something up. A single brow rose, a look of caution crossing his features. "What is it that you want to say, Lilliana," he said slowly, his voice somewhat... indifferent. He wasn't sure what she wanted to say, but there was something about her tone that made him wary. It didn't sound like something that he would want to hear, and the male sighed softly. "Actually, before you speak, I do want to comment on what transpired when Finch came home," he started, taking control of the situation for a moment. "I appreciate you helping out with bringing Finch home, but I need to know what happened back there. Why did it all of the sudden turn sour? It would seem that as soon as Sparrow spoke up, the tension grew. Now, I don't know what happened out there when you found Finch, but I will no longer tolerate this bitterness between members." He fixed her with a good, narrowed eye gaze before he dipped his head, allowing her to speak once more.
