Malalia was blissfully unaware of the moral conundrum she'd pressed upon Mortis. She was simply glad to know that she wasn't the only one aware of Azure's issue. Whatever it may be. Briefly she wondered — if birthright wasn't already a guarantee, why not extend the role to all of his heirs? Better yet, why not simply choose the best wolf for the job, blood related or not? Sirius was leader here. He didn't have to choose Azure as an adversary heir, not if he didn't want to. Maybe it wouldn't solve everything, but it would've been a start.

But it was getting a little tiring of hating on the boy, and Mal decided to put him out of her mind. For now. She nodded simply at Mort's speculation, even if she didn't believe it, and turned her eyes back to the battle, for a moment. The field had thinned somewhat as more matches were lost and others went up for seconds. She smiled lightly, knowing that even though Plague had beaten her, Sirius would probably still wipe the floor with him.

Friends. A year ago she might've thought her friends to be... well, more than a single friend, for one thing, and a bit closer to her in age. But her general carefreedom, coupled with Mort's apparent fascination with her "war stories" brought her to enjoy the kid's company. He answered her questions as freely as she had answered his, and was a pretty attentive audience. It was nice. Not to talk about something training-related, for once. Mortis seemed to have the opposite effect as Azure did, his joy practically infectious. She smiled back at his declaration.

She almost didn't notice the boy crawling forward. Almost. "Hmmmmmm." Green eyes stared at him for a few heartbeats, and then... she suddenly attempted to shoulder the boy over, before leaping away, treading lightly on her feet. "I'd like to see you try!" Conveniently ignoring her qualms from before. "How about you give me a day or two to rest up, and we can spar again?"

"Speech"

[OOC: *rubs hands like a cartoon villain* Aren't moral dilemmas great? Poor Mortis lol. Also, last reply before I crash, just a heads up.]
