   It had been a few days since she had brought Mikhail back home with her and what an interesting few days it's been. Seeing the two most important males in her life interact was amusing to say the least. Raziel was just so grumpy and her brother so jumpy. She could only imagine what transpired when she had went out for food.
With care she entered the cave. "I return my loves."

The scene Jestine walked into was full of tension. Raziel's wings were held high as he paced the floor, a glowering look on his face. Mikhail, somber as always, had curled up in some dark corner of the cave in his perpetual misery. Both males looked up towards her when she announced herself. Glowering gave way to relief as Raziel stepped forward to welcome his mate.
"It is good to have you back. ....And no, I didn't DO anything to him... this time. He's been like this since you left. He's exasperating! Just completely. How did one like him come from the same gene pool as you? I....guh.... Just.... welcome home." He gave a well-suffering sigh and nuzzled her lovingly.
Mikhail simply looked over, his ears drooping and his eyes half closed. He shouldn't be here. This was his sister's life. He had no reason to be here ruining it. Her mate was agitated by the things he did and he couldn't really blame the guy.

Well wasn't this wonderful. Return to a cave filled with tension so thick that you could slice it in half with a paw. A sigh left her form as she returned her lovers nuzzle and soon she went to her brothers side giving him a gentle lick to the cheek.
"Raziel there is no need for insults and I would appreciate it if you kept the insults to yourself. Mikhail is my other half so speaking ill of him is like speaking ill of me."
She sat back on her haunches, looking from Raziel to Mikhail then from Mikhail to Raziel. "What exactly happened while I was gone.

Raziel returned to his pacing. Jestine was HIS. It ruffled him to hear Jestine oppose him for another male, even if it was her sibling. The male was weak. Both in mind and body. And all the b*****d ever does is whine. Still, he kept his thoughts to himself as he paced. "I did -nothing-. I rested since it is still light out and I cannot openly go hunt as of yet." Otherwise he'd have left Mikhail to his own devices hours ago.
Mikhail returned her lick with a quick nuzzle, then turned back around. He sighed and kept his eyes downcast, wishing to disappear against the rocks and ground. "I shouldn't be here... Why you continue to insist that I tag along now that you have your mate, I'll never understand..."

"We've already been through this brother. I'll not let you wander the world slowly killing yourself. No one can deter me from taking care of you until you are able to care for yourself and don't tell me you can because if you could you wouldn't have come to the situation your in. I already lost you once because of our parents. I'll not lose you again. End of discussion.
Now enough of this tension. We are going to be staying within the same shelter so it is best to find a way to get along. Like it or not we are a family now so it's time to start acting like it."

Mikhail simply closed his eyes and sighed. "As you wish. You'll grow tired of me sooner or later and send me off anyway. It's only a matter of time... Just like our parents.... just like Aquos... Just like everyone else..."
Raziel sat back on his haunches and rolled his eyes. "That. That right there. He does it constantly. Jestine, he does not appreciate you. He wishes self destruction even in the face of your love and acceptance. It infuriates me to no end that he can be so blind." He growled. "You tell me to hold my tongue but he turns his back on you constantly and my honor calls me to defend you. I cannot harm your brother because to do this would hurt you. So tell me what to do. Obviously, there's no changing his stubborn mind on this subject."

Her ears lay flat against her skull and her head lowered in thought.
"Raziel he's been abandoned time and time again. Can you really blame him for how he is? I'm trying to help him heal because I want him to find the happiness that I've found. I want him to be able to experience what we have and then some. Maybe...maybe you could help out? Help him gain his strength and his confidence back.

Raziel raised an eyebrow at the proposition and flicked his tail. "If this is what you wish of me then I will comply. But I do ask... How do you propose I take a broken lion and revive him to a state he has never been?" He stood and walked over to nuzzle her. "I am not saying I will not try, simply that I do not know how, nor that it will work. I will simply try."

"That is a good question...."
Jestine gladly welcomed his nuzzles, she really did need them now. She was at a loss for what they could do to help her brother. Where should they begin and how should they go about it. A low growl escaped her maw as her frustration began to boil and fester with her.

Raziel smirked and gave her a light n**. "Do not fret, love, I'm sure we will figure something out." His gold eyes turned to Mikhail, who was pointedly ignoring them. He didn't know if it was the display of happiness between the two of them or if he was just sour over talking of him, but the grey lion was detached from the current happenings around him.
Mikhail ignored their talk. Let them do as they please. There was no fixing him. He was better off as a corpse. The only one who wanted him around was the one who needed to get rid of him to be happy...
