Heliotrope paused in examining her patients to look over at Fellwing. [color=ed1c24]"Oh, it's quite alright,"[/color] she said. [color=ed1c24]"It's refreshing to find drakes interested in my work."[/color] She gave a small, somewhat dry chuckle at the Seer's suggestion that she try and get a nap in. [color=ed1c24]"Well, if the Moons allow it."[/color] However, she did seem appreciative of the concern, and a slight smile remained on her face for a little while after.

Kyte looked a little alarmed when Fellwing addressed them, as if they had been so caught up in their worries they forgotten about most everything else in the room. Tamba coming over to comfort them seem to have brought their attention back slightly, but they still unfocused. They nodded awkwardly in response to the black drake's words. [color=ffab72]"I'll, err. talk to her when she gets back,"[/color] the winged drake muttered.

Garrock turned his head towards Fellwing in slow, deliberate fashion. [color=FADA5E]"Your first impression of my sibling was him trying to tackle me while I was carrying an injured dragon,"[/color] he said. [color=FADA5E]"I don't know, Kebros, does that seem like the actions of a responsible adult to you?"[/color] His tone was nowhere near as acidic as it had been when they'd been on the island, more flat and monotone as if the reasons for his annoyance towards Rudrick should have been obvious to everyone.

There was a pause at Skobeloff's question, as if Rudrick was genuinely considering how much he should say. [color=8D3A19]"Just family matters, really,"[/color] he said. [color=8D3A19]"If Garrock hasn't mentioned me, I doubt he's really spoken of family at all. He's not really close to any of us these days."[/color] He gives a little shake of his head. [color=8D3A19]"Believe it or not it wasn't always like that. [i]He[/i] wasn't always like that but..."[/color] He opens his mouth as if to elaborate, but all that comes out is a deep, weary sigh, as if he doesn't quite have the words for what he wants to say. After a moment of just letting that sigh hang in the air, he draws himself back up to his full height and turns his head back to drakes. [color=8D3A19]"But never mind about all that."[/color]

He listened to Shieldwing's response and managed a chuckle at his observations on Garrock. [color=8D3A19]"Yes, that sounds about right,"[/color] he said. [color=8D3A19]"Patience never was a virtue of his."[/color]
