A Heart Full Of Love

Pegasus didn't exactly look like he knew what to do and some part of Célestin felt a bit guilty coming to his friend in such as state, but he was here now so what was he going to do? As he lay beside his friend, Pegasus asked him if he wanted to talk about it and for a moment Célestin regarded him, tilting his head so that the side of his face was more resting on his paws than his chin. He looked at his friend, unsure if he did want to talk about it but there was something comforting about the idea of sharing what his troubles were... though he still feared his revelation might change things, their dynamic.

Finally heaving a sigh Célestin turned his head back to stare out ahead of him, not wanting to see how what he was about to say might affect Pegasus.

"You probably heard my brother and mother fighting..." Célestin began; giving a sardonic barking laugh as he did so, the whole of boreas had probably heard them. "Blaise, my brother, evidently got angry at our mother and started yelling about how we were unwanted and our father was probably a rapist and..." He lowered his voice slightly, feeling a wave of nausea roll over him. "Well evidently Balise wasn't totally wrong, we're bastards; in the literal sense. I guess it wasn't a total surprise for me... We'd never had any father to speak of and our mother has always been rather jumpy. But I guess learning you're the product of... well... I guess I just never really wanted to consider it." Célestin fell silent for a while, staring out at the pack lands; his mind a whirlwind. There was something completely different about realizing you're different from other families than finding out your very birth was the result of one of the worst acts someone could do to someone else. He found himself wondering if any of them looked like him, if when his mother looked at her kids she saw him.

"Anyways," he continued, louder; not really wanting to continue on in that line of thinking, "Blaise stormed off and started talking nonsense to my sister Priscilla about how our mom and Uncle Torin were lying to us by not telling us. As if telling a couple of pups that they're mother only had them because she was assaulted is any way to handle this situation. Then he started claiming no one here cares about us and that he was going to take over the pack one day and trying to play the Us. vs. Them card and he's just so fucking full of shit and-" Célestin stopped talking, realizing his volume had been rising as he continued to fume. He took a few deep breaths; closing his eyes as he reigned in his anger.

"Blaise hadn't made contact with us, with any of us for a year before this. He claims our uncle doesn't care but he's made no effort to be there for anyone and as soon as it turns out the world doesn't work the way he wants it to he thinks he just gets to ruin things for everyone else. Uncle Torin hasn't ever treated any of us like we were anything but just like everyone else. He's can be harsh but no more than he is for anyone else... as far as I can tell anyways. But Blaise? Oh no, he's always the victim. He's been a bully since we were pups and now that he's convinced himself he's been wronged he wants to punish everyone. I've never wanted to hit him more than I do right now. I hope he get's his ass kicked."

Célestin kept his gaze straight ahead, his face a mask of grim anger and determination. Some part of him hoped to be the one to kick his brother's ass but right now more than anything he just wanted Blaise to stop pretending he was the only goddamn wolf on the planet that had ever been wronged.
