[ No one ever said these two were good at talking about their problems. It may just be a side effect of knowing each other for so long that talking things out often seems superfluous when you so often reach the same conclusions.

... Or, perhaps, it's that 97% of all conversation between the two of them devolves into bickering and fighting.

But right now? Right now it's because the anger inside Steak, the one which doesn't belong to him, makes him want to be almost anywhere else but in a locked space with Red Wine. When the familiar footsteps precede the even more obvious critique of his actions, Steak groans, frustration flaring inside of him.

Frustration which is, at least, entirely his own. Frustration at the new limbs, the new shape of his horns, the changes to his ears and the constant, constant pulling between two natures which have never before belonged to him. Frustration at Red Wine and the months of his transformation eating at both of them.

Frustration at the fact that this is the only thing he feels which is his own any more. ]
