Sweet poison

[Luna16]

Hemlockleaf was genuinely taken off guard when Blueberrybird snapped back at him. Usually, she'd just let him say his peace and leave. She very rarely got upset enough to snap at him. He blinked, trying to process what just happened before he could even get to thinking about her question. But once the shock wore off, his own anger surged. "How dare you!" He growled. "You have absolutely no right to question me like that! Despite your best efforts, she was my sister in the end! You don't get to decide how I miss her!" By the end, he was spitting in his outrage. He wasn't even totally sure what they were talking about anymore, only that the words from both parties seemed old... Like prey that had been sitting at the bottom of the prey pile and festering for moons, turning all it touched to rot and crow-food.

He didn't know how, but this seemed to be the moment where they were finally lashing out with old feelings. Things that have gone unsaid for too long. Were they actually getting to the root of the problem? Hemlockleaf doubted that was actually possible. There was no way for them to sort things out between them. Because no matter what, Magpiepaw is still dead. And he would never get that time back.

Her anger grew, and like a moth to a porch light she couldn't say no. "How dare me?! You're the one holding on to her!" She felt like all the words that had been biting her before were tumbling out. "At some point you need to realize that she's gone and blaming everyone else for it isn't going to bring her back!" Her temper was hot and uncontrollable. Maybe it was some pint up emotion that had been secretly strangling her. After her parents and then Magpie. Death was something that followed her and now the one time she didn't think she'd have to go through this alone. He's is only focused on himself."Why do you have to be so selfish? You're not the only one who loved her! You're are not the only who knew her!" her voice cracked and tears threatened their way into her eyes. This is childish. I don't even know what I'm saying. "You're not alone..."

@Luna16 -You're fine! ;3
