It took him a long moment of grimacing, of looking away and then back at Lillie, to calm slightly. His mind still reeled under this new information - god dammit he hated how easily she could get under his skin. One moment he felt strangely serene around her, as though he was floating on a cloud, and the next she said something that made rage boil in his chest. Why did she get to him so easily? Why did he care so much? His nose wrinkled, brows furrowing together tightly as his heart-rate slowed.

He wondered, briefly, if what she had done was so bad after all. He had lashed out at Starling with his words; was something more physical really that much worse? At least a physical wound was something that he could heal with his herbs, whereas words could linger for quite some time. No amount of herbs could ease that kind of pain. Another frustrated sigh fell from his lips as he stared into the distance, his eyes briefly fixing on the horizon.

"I don't want to tell him," he assured her quietly. Telling him would solve nothing - Starling was already gone, and there had been no sign of him for quite some time. It would do no good, and he had no interest in punishing her further. She already seemed to be struggling with it on her own. It wouldn't make him feel good to make her feel even worse. "So..." his voice trailed off, head lifting slowly as he eyed her. Much of his rage had calmed now, leaving him with an awkward pit in his stomach instead. "What should we do now? Just stand here and glare at one another?" he shuffled his paws, ears flicking atop his head. "Or should we move on?" Lark wasn't totally sure he knew what she would say for an answer, or if he wanted to know at all.
