Tobi is going emo, it seems... NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker Tobi's jaw dropped. His fists clenched.
Did he hear that right? Did Kettleburn, how quickly he'd lost his first name basis, just say that he needed to be warned off Cela? "Kayla," he said very slowly, very calmly, deadly calm, one might say. "It might be wise if you place yourself between Kettleburn and me, because I think I might have to kill him, and that might make Cela sad."
HE was her guardian? What about him? What about Kayla? What were they? chopped liver? "FIRST OF ALL BUDDY, THAT'S KINDA THE POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK ISN'T? IT" Tobi exploded.
A dozen owls got wise and flew the litteral coup, Isolde, however seemed to have gained newfound respect for her master and swooped down overhead to perch on his shoulder. "ARG! GET AWAY YOU BLOODY THING! AND FURTHER, NOT ONLY DO I NOT NEED TO BE WARNED NOT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF CELA, I'M THE ONE THAT'S BEEN LOOKING AFTER HER INTERESTS. AND I HAPPEN I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND OF MY OWN THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ONE I DID NOT HAVE TO ACCOST IN A TREE OR STEAL FROM MY BROTHER!"
