Silence settled between them for a few beats as the towering male before them stared into their souls. Or at least, that's how Kuroo felt. Those gently glowing silver eyes blinked occasionally as the brothers awaited a response. He could feel his heart strain against his chest before a rush of relief washed over him. Color him surprised to find out that Usagi had been right to assume this koi wolf did know their father. Was his cousin actually. Blinking a few times in disbelief himself, Kuroo swallowed harshly against his dry throat. A Hattori, nonetheless. Their mother had wound stories in their minds from a young age how their father had come from some type of neighboring royalty. It was the reason she had insisted they stay close with their cousins. If one day they could prove they were actually Raijin's sons, maybe they would have a chance. Flicking his ears back momentarily, he glanced at Usagi carefully as his brother spoke. As his words died off again, surely giving his space to speak his own words, Kuroo looked back over to Hattori with hesitation. "We wanted to meet him in the flesh before dropping such a bombshell on him. There have been rumors of his nightly ventures and it doesn't settle well with us. Surely, someone from his area wouldn't leave pups to be raised alone by their mother without knowledge of it," his confession was short of desperately hoping that it was true. If Raijin had truly known about them even being alive, it was hard for Kuroo to accept that he would have deserted them. "Either way, we're here now and whether we can meet him or not, I don't believe there's a way back for us," the boy shrugged his shoulders as he looked over solemnly to Usagi. Just as tormented as his brother was, Usagi surely held more than enough anguish for the both of them. |
