i was born, on the highway, in a train wreck
with a heart, that was beating, out of my chest
The sheer open disgust that appeared on Piers's face as Abathur walked up to him... well, it was enough to make Aurum wince. He knew that Abathur probably wouldn't care, since he never seemed all that bothered by what others thought of him, but Aurum still felt like scolding Piers for being so open about his distaste for the large arachnid. After all, they were clanmates, and Piers openly viewing a clanmate with disgust wouldn't exactly be great. Aurum watched the exchange between the two before suddenly Piers's attention was on the Captain, and it wasn't exactly positive. Aurum immediately drowned as he heard Piers spit out his explanation, his ears pinning back a little at the harshness reflected in the child's words. What had made him so... angry? Tail twitching anxiously behind him, Aurum rumbled as he moved his head forward, gently gripping the bag in his jaws and carefully untangling it from the root, "Calm down, Piers. I was just asking because I was curious. Most kids your age don't just move out of their parent's home for now reason... did you even tell Indie that you're doing this?" Aurum heavily doubted it, although that honestly might not have been the kid's fault. After all, he hadn't exactly seen Indie around much lately. Still, even if Piers wanted to strike out on his own... why not room with someone else? It wouldn't be all that different, not to mention that it would probably offer some nice companionship for the small feline. Aurum had so many questions, but he kept his mouth shut, biting his tongue and trying not to anger Piers further.
