She smiled at the faith he seemed to have in her. She wished she could feel the same for herself. Mal figured that her father would've had to prove himself time and time again on a lengthy track to becoming the leader of the Armada. She was definitely sure Sirius hadn't made the jump from slave to Warlord in a matter of months. Maybe it was true that everyone started somewhere -- the girl just hadn't expected to start so high up. Honestly? She'd been preparing herself for the loss ever since the competition began. A pat on the back, a promotion to warrior, maybe, but actually securing the prestigious rank was about the last thing she'd expected. Everyone else was older, more experienced... "I wasn't expecting him to do that," she noted absently, returning his grin with a slight one of her own. She supposed it made sense though. More than a promotion, it was an emotional moment for her and Tamsyn in kind, and it was probably the easiest way to let the pack know. Her head tilted, contemplating. "He... didn't tell you guys about adopting me before he did it, did he?" It was more of a statement than a question, really. Mortis hadn't even seemed to known, when she'd told him herself, so there was no reason why Sirius would have told his other children. "How did the others take it?" Mal had never truly had a last name herself, but hearing Cairo tell it, giving it to the "wrong" people could be a touchy subject. Azure, she knew was probably fuming over it. And the girl hadn't missed how Aslatiel had stormed away from the meeting, though she wasn't entirely sure if it was her doing. She paused for a moment so that they both could look at the bracers. She twisted her head down, and grinned as she looked at the flower. It clicked into place now, Mortis having explained its origin. The bear was more elusive. "You're probably right about that... or maybe because he's a big, protective mama bear -- er, papa bear?" She furrowed her brows, then shrugged. "Or maybe he just likes bears." He did have a bear companion now, after all. She squinted, taking in Mortis' lowered form. Malalia swished her tail. ".....Okay, okay, you can get up now." Those were enough orders for the day. |
