Aonung get your shit together!

~ Lo'ak's POV ~
Aonung sat in silence as me and Tsireya talked to each other. "Aonung, dude?" "Yes Lo'ak?" Aonung said turning to me. "What's up with you? I know you loved Neteyam and everything but-" he cut me off his eyes staring at me like daggers. "You don't know anything. You want to believe you do but you don't" "Aonung stop it.." Tsireya said getting upset. "Yeah Aonung get your shit together man, don't press us because of something your dad is doing to you.. we can help you but you just have to ask asshole!" I said fed up with Aonung's behavior, I scoffed at him as he became quiet turning away from me and Tsireya. "My family is taking it pretty hard, and so I am. Don't think your the only one going through it, I miss my brother everyday- and you have the nerve to talk as if you are feeling more pain than us.""Hell my family seems so fucking depressed and dead right now." I scoffed and smiled irritated. Tsireya signed to me "you do not have to be so hard on him Y'know? Our dad kinda already does that" Tsireya finished, then holding my arm. I signed back to her "I know that but he needs to be pushed out of the shell he's in, I can see it's his personality and how he acts as a Navi' being but it's not healthy.. he is clinging on to my brother, he is expressing his feelings as anger and frustration and he needs closure Tsireya" She looked into my eyes and I stared back at hers, she nodded pursing her lips in then signed "we will both try to help him yes?" She said her eyes narrowing in question. "Of course he can also get closure from my family if he'd like that is" I signed back to her smiling bright, she smiled shyly then hugged me. We both got up from the dinner table and placed my hand on Aonung's shoulder. "Come on bro let's go" Aonung followed me and Tsireya to the ocean. I sat down and patted my hand down beside me for him to sit down next to me "Come on, let's talk" Aonung had an irritated smile and scoffed at me but sat down with Tsireya sitting down next to him. Me and Tsireya ambushed Aonung with a hug and he struggled trying to push us off of him but eventually gave up after a while. "Now tell us all of you worries, your feelings, emotions, everything" Tsireya said laying her head on her brother's shoulder. I felt Aonung breath out heavily before speaking to us, "I feel like my father does not understand me, does not appreciate me. He doesn't even hear me out, but he most definitely listens to..Tsireya" "I just wish he wouldn't think of me as a disappointment all the time, when I got quiet that one time. Just know that you were right Lo'ak and I would have to accept that." Me and Tsireya listened to Aonung intently. I stood up as Aonung stopped talking. "Aonung, this is gonna be really hard for me to say. So listen because I won't repeat myself" I breathed in and out before speaking again. I took Aonung's arm and pulled him up. Aonung tilted his head at me waiting for me to say something. Tsireya looked up at both of us. "I guess I could say..I see you" I said struggling slightly to get it out. Aonung just smiled slightly laughing. "I'm sorry what was that?" "I just told you I wasn't repeating myself-" yea no but I just don't think I heard-" no you definitely heard me-" no the wind is just Y'know so loud" "the wind loud? There hasn't even been a breeze.." "no but like I didn't hear you-" really bro?" "Yea just like-" no" "could you repeat it once more" "No.." I said smiling now irritated by him. "Come on Lo'ak" Tsireya said knowing if I just did it this would be over with. "I see you, you moron.." I said scoffing at him. He smiled, and I could tell it was pure happiness in that smile.

~ Tonowari's POV ~
"I don't know what's gotten into him Ronal, he acts as if he does not want to be the leader-" you are being to hard on him is all, if you treated him like you treat Tsireya.." "Tsireya is a golden child, kind, is there for her people! Aonung is hard headed, prideful, with too much attitude. He needs to be humbled" "he was doing just fine with Neteyam" Ronal said arguing with me. "Neteyam is gone Ronal, and why is everything about Neteyam? This about Aonung marrying a beautiful girl" "you don't get it do you?" Ronal said her eyes narrowing. "I don't need to get anything, Aonung needs to prepare himself is all"

~ Aonung's POV ~
I overheard my parents talking and realized something, my father is a stuck up person who when he knows something's true he dosent want to admit it and covers it up with lies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sat down at the dinner table and no one was talking. "Can we talk like a normal family?" My father spoke. "A normal family that lives with the Metkayina clan? We do not belong in the water dad, we don't belong here. Face the reality of it." "Neteyam was the only one that could deal with your pathetic attempt to save this family, mom did not want to leave her people, it's obvious it's written all over her face.. Kiri feels as if she is different, do you wanna tell her why she's different than you and me dad?" I said staring my dad down. He went quiet and I spoke again. "The whole clan hates me, you don't understand me. No one does other than Tsireya and Neteyam-" if Neteyam was here he would be trying to stick up for you" "Yea well Neteyam didn't need to do any of that dad! He was the perfect brother and son! we all took advantage of him. We didn't care for him enough we didn't love him enough, but Aonung did" "Aonung and Neteyam did not know what they were doing." My father looked at me with a face that said end of discussion. "Dad they were in love! Why is it so ok for me and Tsireya but wasn't for Neteyam and Aonung?" I said placing my hands and arms on the table. "You guys aren't giving each other hickeys and shit!" "How do you know! You don't care for either of our love lives!" I said sticking up for Neteyam. "Why are you even arguing with me? Why stick up for someone that doesn't need it?" "Because he has done it for me my entire life!" "And he's not here to stick up for himself..so I'll do it for him." I said burrowing my eyebrows at him. My mother looked shocked at us both and yelled at us lecturing us. "What is wrong with you two?! Do you not see Kiri and Tuk right here? They do not need to be exposed to such things! Such hatred!" My mother's face became saddened as she looked at my father then at me. I lowered my head and my father just became quiet.
