Clicking a tongue. “ Brats... ” muttering under his breath, Artem gradually began to step away after sending a two finger wave in Skylar's direction. Gone and quickly at that.
“ ... Hoh? I see the boy did his homework. In all honesty, your scents make me nauseous, much like your mother's, but it's not my business if you're hybrids or not. ”
“ Hm... At any rate. I'm Artem — your old man's younger sibling. Pleasure to / officially / meet you brats. ”
“ ... Is that kid dense or Misha really didn't say anything? Oi, button nose — you look like the smarter sibling, so which is it? ”
Awaiting for @InfectiousPride to wake up? Most certainly — seated on her window, one leg hanging outside and the other pulled to his chest as sharpened pupils focused on the gardens below; observing Miyu and his own brother acting like nothing happened. Those two pissed him off.
