Shieldwing's eyes widened a bit at Kyte's response. At first, he was unchanged, viewing the orange drake's words as little more than an excuse. However, it wasn't long before the drake's gaze lowered and he muttered something about...not being in the same clutch anymore? That caused the red drake to pause in response. He had expected a defiant retort, or maybe even a few insults thrown his way in support of Stonescale. However, it seemed like an opposite response came to the forefront. He was still sounding a bit agitated and offended at his accusation, but there was something different about it.

And now Shieldwing was starting to feel more like the bully all of a sudden.

[color=ED2939]"...Oh,"[/color] Shieldwing murmured, suddenly lowering his stance a bit. Come to think of it, he didn't look very good at the moment. For a moment, he considered apologizing, but at the same time...it was kind of hard for him to feel bad. After all, clutch or not, this guy still stood back and did nothing when his clutchmate was messing with Stargaze. Inaction was almost as bad as taking part as far as he was concerned. He tilted his head, though, almost hesitant to ask...but he suddenly felt like he needed to know at this point. [color=ED2939]"But wait...what d'you mean, 'not anymore'?"[/color] he asked. [color=ED2939]"What happened?"[/color]
