[Perhaps surprising to Ain, it's Wolfwood who comes to his rescue this time, stepping briefly into Add's path.
Back off. Go read your nerd shit.
[Add makes a strangled sound, says something harshly in a language Ain won't understand, then turns away to sulk in the corner with his book pile. Seems like he and Wolfwood aren't that different, in that regard!! There's as much similar about them as there is different...and there's a reason for everything, it seems as Wolfwood returns to the fire pit to start pulling food off the hot stones, placing them on cooler ones that can be easily handled. He'll start scooping the stew into bowls as well.]
He's just gonna beat around the bush, so I'll spell it out for you. When he says "desperate", he ain't talkin' about you. Hurtin' you, or eatin' you, or whatever you're thinkin'. He's talkin' about us.
[Us, as in the two dragons that are weirdly living together, despite bickering all the damn time...
Wolfwood looks at Ain before setting the food down in front of the nest on the cave floor, figuring he's too afraid to let it be handed to him directly.]

We're mates. We've been mates for a long time.
