"Singeglare."
A sideways glance is thrown the fiery warrior's way as the two brothers trek through the territory, side-by-side. As hard as he tries to be unreadable, a distaste lingers underneath the surface of Sneezeduck's gaze. Judgmental. Hurt. And certainly not unearned. Should his brother look his way, Sneezeduck might not help the way his gaze softens anyway; as much of a thorn the boy as grown to become, he's still kin, and.. all Sneezeduck did was for his kin.
He loved them, all of them. Singeglare, Swallowflutter, his siblings yet to be born - he'd always had their best interests in mind, even above his own. It hasn't changed, really.. it couldn't, or so he tries to tell himself. But if he loved his brother so much.. then what is this sudden switch of view towards him? Ever since Marbleleaf uncovered that omen, to which Singeglare spoke out so disrespectfully to, he just.. can't seem to look at Singeglare the same. Following that, the bold comments speaking out against StarClan - it irked him in a strength no other cat had been able to reach before.
At the mere memory of it, Sneezeduck plants his teeth firmly into his tongue, holding back a snarl. A surge of defensiveness courses through him. A desire to protect.
"This isn't just walk. We need to.. to talk." But where does he start? He'd never been the confrontational type, much less towards his own siblings. And if he challenged Singeglare, would the competitive warrior ever forgive him? Guilt gnaws at Sneezeduck's heart. Nobody else will say it. I have to. The boy lets out a heavy sigh then stops in his pawsteps, turning to face Singeglare with a weary gaze. "You seem unhappy with.. things.. lately. Angry."
