It'd been a long time since he'd felt uncomfortable, even slightly, in Lillie's presence. It wasn't pleasant to hear her talk about Sparrow like that, though, and his frown lingered for a long while. Lark had always felt fiercely protective of his siblings, no matter what, and it was strange to realize that Lillianna probably didn't like Sparrow.. maybe it was because of how Sparrow had had acted to her, but still. It didn't settle well with him regardless, making his stomach twist uncomfortably.
She seemed.. unsatisfied with his answer. What was she expecting him to say, though, honestly? He wondered if she knew how little he really knew about Sparrow - Lark figured she would've grown out of disliking Lillie just like he had. Lark found himself sighing when she said she didn't want to get Bass involved. Maybe it would be easier without involving him - surely it was just a misunderstanding, right? "I mean.. I guess I could bring it up to her," he offered after a moment, his words accompanied by a slow and uncertain shrug. Discussing something so vague and strange with his father didn't sound all that fun, if he was being honest.
Talking about it with Sparrow didn't sound fun, either, but he didn't want either of them to be pissed off, especially at each other. Still, was throwing himself in the middle of it a good idea? Another sigh fell from his lips at the thought of the confrontation. He expected Sparrow to insist that Lillie was just being dramatic, but.. what if there was some truth to it? His nose wrinkled slightly. "I know you said you had no idea why she was acting weird, but.. are you sure? Maybe something happened that you forgot about?" God, women made no sense to him, and he frowned as he examined her inquisitively.
