Think about this... All the human rival in a room together, complaining about the skeksis. "Skekso called (y/n) 'my mate' again and it was just as creepy as the other seven times" -Ozzie "guess who gave me this flesh wound!" - Lamia. And so on.
Keahi didn’t have much to contribute to the conversation, stuffing their face with the snacks and treats Kit brought for them. Keahi couldn’t trust SkekAyuk not to spit- or worse in their food, so they mainly cooked for themselves. All the actually good foods were “accidentally” kept off limits from them, so it was up to Kit and Cosmo to sneak them stuff that wasn’t just “edible” but tasted decent.
“I just don’t think its fair to (y/n),” Khalil frowned. “SkekLach is so mean, like, does she really think (y/n) is gonna go for her when she’s a dick all the time?” Their gentle, airy voice trailed off into a deep sigh.
“You’re tellin’ me!” Coriander scoffed and shook their head. “SkekOk is a bitch. Like he gives me this weird side eye all the time and I know he’s talking shit about me I can feel-”
“He is.” Raven chimed in from the back, not looking up from their book.
“See?” Coriander face-palmed and shook their head. “Oh, this is such bullshit.”
“I’m sorry.” Cosmo said, giving Cori a sympathetic pat on the shoulder. They were blissfully unaware of SkekZok plotting their downfall.
“Mood.” Taisce said, knowing a thing or two about skeksis talking shit about them- mostly to their face though.
“You know, I wonder how Lami and Argyris are doing right now.” Ozzie relaxed in their seat, resting their cheek in a hand and sighing. “Its been a while since they went withe ______ and (name) to go scout.”
Speak of the very cute devil, and they shall appear. Heads turned to see Lamia storming in, their soft face red with anger and sniffling harshly. They looked a little different, nobody could place it at first but...
“Lam? Where have you b-”
“SkekMal cut off my fu-fucking hair I’m going to kill him!” They squeaked, vengeful tears in their eyes. They pulled a display sword off the wall and stormed back out again. Everyone exchanged looks.
