come a little closer

It was obvious from his scent, as well as the subtle way his breathing was quickened, that he'd been running. Of course, Korinna was oblivious as to why - she knew nothing of ingesting strange substances, and she'd take his personality on face value. She was amused by how whimsical such a scarred brute seemed. At first glance she'd guess he was a warrior of sorts, perhaps leaning toward a darker alignment, but now she found her initial judgment about him being pulled into question - and she decided that she was a big fan of this man, without him even having to try to interest her. That was a feat in and of itself. He had a depth to him that became increasingly clear as he began to speak, relaxing quickly in her presence and starting on what seemed like a sort of rant.
It sounded like nonsense, at least to her, this talk of demons something called the Apollyon. The female listened as closely as she could, despite having trouble fully comprehending his words, the faint inkling of an amused smile pulling at her lips. It only softened as he leaned toward her, asking a question that seemed far more important to him than it ever could to her. Did she wish to give herself over to demons? Oh fuck yes! If that meant living here and serving under this strange, wildly attractive male, she'd serve those demons willingly.. whatever that meant. She nodded in lazy agreement, chuckling softly. "That doesn't sound so bad to me," Kori admitted with a shrug.
Still, the depth of what he was saying was lost to her. His apparent madness was not lost on her - the manic way he spoke was not typical of most wolves, his worries hurried and confusing, and his pupils strangely dilated - but his unusual demeanor struck her as a challenge rather than something to fear. She had survived thus far, and had no doubt she could thrive here just the same or find a way to escape if this place proved... less than favorable. Her close proximity to her didn't make her flinch away, though her teal gaze remained fixed curiosity on him as he continued on. "I can't say I fully understand what you're on about, about demons and cursed souls and all that," And... ancient strength and torment and whatever else he was trying to talk to her about, though she had a feeling he was speaking more to himself than to her. Either way, his antics were more amusing than terrifying to her, and she was hooked.
Who was she? What was she? Okay, maybe this stranger was having some kind of mental breakdown instead of just being weird and quirky. "Name's Korinna, but you can call me Kori. I'm... just a wolf looking for a place to call home, I guess." Words had never been her forte, and she shrugged a bit dismissively. "Figured a group that were insane enough to call a place like this their home might be a good group for me. What about you?" The female raised her brows, grinning playfully at Elias. "What are you, handsome? I cant say I've ever met anyone quite like you."
