i'm like the end of a hitchcock movie; a little dark and a lot deceiving

With a predatory snarl Tae looked to Kygo. She nearly wanted to feel the wings and tendons of the bird in her mouth as she snapped down upon them, not dissimilar to how her wolf might. Yet deep inside, she knew what it was like to be tethered to Mal. She knew that for however much she thought she enslaved him, he enslaved her back. When he was hungry, she felt phantom hunger pangs in her belly. When he was annoyed, she felt claws digging into her skull, and when wanted to tear things to pieces, she felt her mouth water. Now, Tae was clever enough to know that birds were drastically different from wolves, but even so, whatever Kygo felt, Ampere would feel, and that was enough to stay both Tae, and Mal's, jaws.

"And this one is Mal." Tae interjected as Grusha introduced her wolf.

Her pale, slitty eyes focused upon Gaucho as he tried to still Ampere, and questioned the girls (or specifically, Grusha) as to what had happened. Immediately Tae felt herself puff up, partially to try and compensate for the difference between herself and her twin, but also to try and physically convince her parents of what she was about to say next.

"Ma, we saved them-" She began. Oh, she already knew what Ampere was about to say, why it was her eyelashes and her butt-feathers were jiggling and standing on end. They had heard the speech. But if Ampere would just listen, she would find out that they really had no choice. For real.

"Ma there was this lady wolf - she asked us for help. She was hurt and couldn't move her pups and there was this monster-" Here Tae looked to Grusha, expecting her twin to back her up in this regard. "Yeah. And so We hid in this cave and were going to provide a distraction from the monster so that the wolf and her pups could get away and there were these eggs in the back. And they were hatching and -" Again, the girl paused for Grusha, leaving room for her dialogue in between bits of expository speech.

Finally, once her larger twin was finished, Tae nodded decisively.

"Ma, we didn't choose it, we didn't go looking for it. We were trying to save someone, and it just happened."

It didn't matter that it had been Gaucho who asked the question, it was to Ampere that Tae's dialogue and gaze was focused. After all, it was their Ma who was against companions, not their Da.

And then, with a statement very much like something Zero might have said, Tae concluded: "So you don't need to be mad. They would have died. We're the only thing that saved them. Isn't that better than nothing?"
