Until now his expression, like his manner, had been casual and easy, but Sparrow's continued weirdness made him grow solemn as he tried to figure out what her problem was. Maybe she was finding this whole alpha thing weird. It was the only thing he could think of as nothing else had really changed for either of them recently. And he found it weird she found it weird. If that was the reason for her weirdness, why? He was exactly the same as he had been before. Technically both of them had moved up in the world; he with the rank of King and she with the rank of Raidsman so it wasn't like she was a lowly pup; a wee young thing for him to pat on the head dismissively. Tyrian studied her with narrowed eyes for a second and then fall back into his usual lackadaisical manner as he decided to let her sort herself out. She was a big girl. She could manage.

She suggested they train with their claws in mind and he shrugged in easygoing acceptance. "Sure, seems as good a genre as any for me to kick your ass in." He fixed her with a wry look and quipped, "Since it's your idea and you could use the leg up, you set the pace. Whatever you want, I'm game."
