Brighttalon was honestly a bit intimidated by Burrface's sudden hostility. That he'd caused. No, that the voice had caused. It was the voice's fault. But he couldn't say that. He started to get angry, angry that the voice did this. Made him growl and lose a peaceful day. Made Burrface angry. Made what should've been a normal conversation into a showdown. And he could tell the voice was loving it.
That's right, get angry! Get angry because you're no good! Get angry because she's angry! You'll have a fight, and guess what? You won't win! The voice continued on and on, and he couldn't focus. Until Burrface started accusing him.
"What? What would make you think that?" The tom was confused, and, of course, angry. But he tried his best not to get too angry. If he did, it wouldn't be good. He didn't want to start a fight like this, caused over the voice.
"I didn't mean to- to growl. I'm sorry. It was the... never mind," he mewed, struggling to explain to his bristling companion. @
