i am the mace, the map, the fall and the high
Reave can guess why Aela had suggested Mazikeen come pay him a visit, and his guess is almost certainly correct. Though he has never tried to hide his abilities, his sly sister is one of the few who has ever realized just how fully he utilizes them. Aela has many tricks of her own, but she could not do what Reave can. And she has never been foolish enough to waste an opportunity to take advantage of them.
But there are things he does not share with anyone, not even his favored sibling.
He laughs when Mazikeen corrects his language, a faint shrug rolling over his shoulder as he returns his gaze to her. There is a distinct gleam in the blue hue, one that doesn’t quite match the humor on his lips.
He can nearly taste the suspcion that rises from at the revelation, though she does not otherwise react. But then, she must know he had revealed the knowledge for a reason. And he has little doubt she wants to find out that reason.
Perhaps he would even tell her.
The grin on his lips creeps back as she voices her suspicions. He shifts abruptly, causing Rune to squawk indignantly as he gives a short flap of his wings to keep his balance. A brief silence stretches between them before he chuckles. “Or I am just extremely good at ferreting out secrets.”
