Summary: Sometimes siblings really do annoy.
.
"This is so annoying."
"I agree."
The two wolf brother twins sighed together as they continued to hear the playful, light howling of San as her and that that brown-haired young human rolled around in the tall grass.
"I don't understand why we even supervise her," one said to the other, "She's seventeen summers old like us; she can take care of herself."
"I think so, too," the other answered as his ear flicked irritably, "But she is our sister. We must keep an eye on her."
As they heard Ashitaka's deeper laughter mix in, as San no doubt had tackled him to the ground again, the brothers lightly growled.
"Oh, you be quiet," San shouted before continuing her wrestling with Ashitaka.
"Troublesome," the two wolves muttered as they lowered their growls.
At this time, Yakul, who had been innocently eating grass nearby, came over to the brothers as he'd sensed their displeasure from their recent growls.
"Aren't you annoyed with them as well?" one of them asked the elk as the other silver wolf scoffed.
The loyal animal blinked it's large dark eyes and flicked it's head before sharing, "If they are happy then I am happy," before he continued to eat grass.
The brothers watched him for a little before turning to each other, their ears drooping in guilt.
"We're Gods and are supposed to be gracious," one voiced, "Yet we are selfish like lowly humans."
"The elk has more of a godly persona then us," the other muttered dejectedly. Yakul, still close by, lightly grinned as he chewed when he heard this comment.
The two wolves howled out in self-loathing, yet it earned them nothing but a sharp yell from San again.
