“It’s not a concern,” Legend spoke. “Miss Militia?”
“Come on, let’s walk,” she told the others.
Well. The Undersiders can’t very well break the truce either.
“No,” Grue replied, his chin raising an inch, challenging, defiant.
Tattletale raised one hand, “If could just say my piece, I-”
“Quiet,” Armsmaster interrupted her.
But in this situation where neither party has power over the other even with threats of violence… the Protectorate can’t tell the Undersiders what to do and expect them to do so.
“Nobody ever lets me talk!” she spoke, turning on her heel to walk away, flouncing, almost.
Ahaha!
Still frustrated about the incident last week, are you?
It was a bit theatrical, overacting. I wondered if someone that didn’t know her would catch it. “Whatever. Grue, let’s go.”
Heh. It’s time to play along – Tattle seems to have a plan.
