With her rant finished, Rivin took comfort in the bottle. She took several deep swigs as she listened to Flurry, brow furrowing. After a point though, she had to talk. “I saw Sid at the meeting… I’m sorry...” Her words were meant as comfort. She hadn’t been there, ears back at the knowledge. If Sakana hadn’t been actively tending to the girl Rivin would have gone to her instead of Jack. But she wasn’t going to get in the way of a more experienced healer. “I sure as hell don’t justify what the woman did, but hell, if some strangers showed up at my home and I wasn’t processing what they were there for, I’d fuck shit up too.” Her snout wrinkled, face darkening. “But to take things out on a child… You’d think there’d be limits… the adults sure, but a kid? She’s not even a yearling yet…” There was no hiding the fact she was upset about it too. But… Rivin had developed a soft spot for the kids in the Raiders. They were family. To know someone hurt one of their youngest made her sick.
“...and continuing to make a mess of things isn’t going to solve things. Warring with another pack over this isn’t going to solve it. Could complicate things for the Raiders too, given the fact that we’re not exactly friends with anyone.” …and other packs could have allies. “I’d be trying to speak to the alpha about justice. Not our style before but, fuck…” She felt the alcohol hitting more, her body feeling like she was swimming. “You’d think they’d care about a kid too…” Swaying.
“Shit sucks… but if Jack showed mercy… did he fight a young wolf too…?” She was starting to slur, thoughts beginning to fade. “He fought others…” Fought… who? She blinked her eyes several times. “I can g-go get… the bitch… for you g-guys..” An offer that would have been made if she wasn’t slurring her speech. A giggle left her lips. Yeah, the alcohol was hitting. How much of it did she have? “Carry her right to y-your mom, gored through and a-aall~” A pleased smirk on her lips. Yeah, that was right! She’d bring the horrible child maimer back to the Raiders and then all would be forgiven! It was all the perfect plan in her now drunken mind.
But Flurry seemed to be down on herself. Something that she waved off as she swayed into the other young woman. “No way, F-Flurry!” She exclaimed. She was getting loud, a content look on her face. “You’re strong! Y-you gotta… you gotta… keep things going…” She got to her paws, wobbling as she stumbled to stand in front of Flurry. “Next… Next R-Raid Queen!” She nearly fell on her face, attempting an elegant bow. She would sink to the ground then, tail wagging as she looked up to the other. “Buildiiiing us all b-boats… to stay a-afloat… hahaha!”
"Speech," 'Thought.'
