Chasing Cars

As he eyed her, he noticed that she was eyeing him too, but not out of curiosity. Her body had become rigid when he'd placed himself right next to her, and it looked like she was weighing her options. Was she preparing to run? He couldn't help but to feel his pride being stroked a little. His presence was really freaking her out. This was just what he needed. At her expense, unfortunately, but he wouldn't make this too unbearable for her - beneath it all, he truly was harmless, at least toward his own pack mates. He'd keep things just tense and awkward enough to keep her squirming. He had to keep himself entertained somehow, right? Rather intensely, he focused his gaze on her as she spoke, leaning annoyingly close as though he didn't understand the concept of personal space. His ears perked toward her as she explained that she hadn't been in a pack for a long time, since she was a pup. Then she would offer her name. He waited in silence for a moment or two, then sat back into his own personal bubble. "Ashelia Adravendi," he murmured - it seemed that this was a very widespread family name, "Haven't been in a pack since you were a pup, eh? What brings you to a pack now?" Curious indeed - the shift in lifestyle from the freedom and independence of a loner to life with a pack was significant. What had drawn her to Fiori? Was it family? Or something else? He supposed now he ought to also give her his name, since she'd asked. He'd already spent enough time making her shift nervously. "My name is Xephyris," he told her, glancing at her sideways again as he looked out the landscape, "I've been in a couple packs here, and found that Adravendi's a pretty common name. I used to be with the pack Sonticus when Arian was its leader, before I parted ways to become part of the foundation of a new empire, by the name of Hellstrom. But alas, it was struck down much too soon - guess we had some haters. Now here I am in Fiori, fancy that, ha ha!" Would any of that be familiar to her? Sometimes loners paid attention to pack affairs, and other times they altogether avoided it - what was her experience, he wondered? |
