Also always up for backdating anything specific done during events or plots that we weren't able to get to e.g. memshares, shapeshifting into other forms, etc. Just let me know what you'd like to do!

[After this gem of a conversation, Savage had been laying in wait for when things calmed down.

Except he was constantly anxious and thought this would make it a little better. A distraction. Or it would infuriate his brother and make it worse. Who knew. If he thought too hard about it, he'd go mental.]

I was informed that you've been naming trees lately, brother. Is this place making you soft?

[He was teasing, as all little brothers should. He didn't often try to tease Maul, but today was the day. Buckle yourself in.]

[survivalthroughhate]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[Oh yes he did. He couldn't help it, Ariadne's quirks were rather charming in their own way, and so he'd indulged them. Now it looked like this was going to come back to bite him in the ass.]

[opress]

Riot and Sunny would disagree with you. According to the story I was told, you relished handing out names to green things.

[It was going to bite so hard.]

[survivalthroughhate]

She asked for some and I gave suggestions! That does not make me soft!

[He said this all in a very huffy tone as he tried his best to protest.]

[opress]

Being away from the galactic conflict has made you softer, but naming green things. I never thought you'd slip so far.

Will you be keeping plants in window sills next? A garden out back? Try to eat vegetables?

[And calling someone a vegetarian was a teasing insult for the Nightbrothers.]

[survivalthroughhate]

You're going to be eating vegetables once I knock a few of your teeth out.

[Maul said grumpily. The two of them didn't usually engage in such back-and-forth sniping at one another but Savage was having far too much fun messing with Maul.

In a way, it was rather refreshing. Neither of them had been able to do this with one another growing up, so they were taking the opportunity to do so now that they were together again.]

[opress]

How do you plan on doing that, my elder but much shorter brother?

[He and Maul rarely teased each other like how he and Feral had as they had grown up. It wasn't something they did quite like this, but over the year here, he had grown more confident in his relationship with Maul.]

Big brother turning into a vegetarian. Loves his plants like he loves his mate. Are they going to be your kits?

[survivalthroughhate]

The same way I have before, stepping on your face to get you onto the ground.

[There were occasional moments he missed his clawed legs and this was one of them. It was so much easier to kick someone to the ground when he could grab their face with his feet. Hmm, maybe it was time for another upgrade...

Maul went practically apoplectic when Savage needled him about the plants being like his children. He tried to think up something else to say but all that he could come up with was:]

You are going to be in for such a beating the next time we spar.

[opress]

I'm not sure you're that flexible anymore, but I welcome you to try.

[He knew that Maul could use the Force on him for their contests, and while he was innately stronger thanks to having more of himself and his link being wide open, Maul was so much more controlled and advanced than his own uses.

Savage actually laughed when Maul threatened him. In the battle of words, he almost always lost. He'd count this as a victory.]

I'm sure your plant kits will cheer you on in their own way.

[survivalthroughhate]

They are not my kits!

[Maul screeched out, voice going up in volume. Savage was going to be in for a hard fight next time they sparred. Oh yes he was. Maul was going to stomp him right into the ground and not feel the least bit bad about it.]

[opress]

I'm sure the ones with stripped leaves would disagree.

[This was too good, and he knew that pressing his advantage and stirring Maul up was going to land him in a world of hurt. It was just so worth it, even if he would be limping for days or just plain nursing contusions and lacerations.]

[survivalthroughhate]

[Maul's scowl remained firmly in place. Really, there was nothing he could say that was going to be able to top Savage's teasing about the plants. But he wasn't going to sit there and take it.]

You're going to end up eating those leaves by the time I'm done sparring with you!
