Gabriel |
Gabriel's brief bout with insanity snapped to a halt as his name split through the air like the crack of a whip, the snapping of a cord and whatever had come apart inside the obsidian male, wove back together, completing his mind and making him irrationally...calm. The pup didn't move, didn't flinch, he drew in a steady breath and released it, silence lingered, dangling out of reach like a taunting piece of meat. He suddenly didn't know why he had left, or why he even cared that Pip was gone. It didn't impact him other than the fact that she had broken a promise or two. Why would he allow such a thing to effect him so greatly? Pip was wiped from his brain. Forgotten, forlorn, a memory, little less and nothing more. He no longer cared if he ever saw her again and...peace, resettled in his soul. He was still Gabriel, that had not changed, he wouldn't wrestle with his siblings and they would still tease him for it. His father would give more attention to his siblings and his mother would dote on him. Such was the way of things. It wouldn't change. The tension fell from his body, tail remaining listless, but eyes losing their malice, an almost detached expression came over the youths maw and without moving, his gave darted to the ivory pelt of his mothers pelt. He dipped his head soundlessly. A respectful, silent greeting. He awaited her punishment. he deserved it, he knew it. "Mother." The word was spoken low but with a great deal of reverence, all previous vindictive qualities gone. It was simple, gentle. His mom had not earned his disrespect, she had always been there for him, he owed her nothing short of utter obedience, it was his mind that so oft pulled him away.
