-- you're slowly killing me

As the dappled tyke responded to her inquiry, confusion evident upon his pallid countenance, the viper?s own porcelain visage contorted into a scowl, obviously perplexed by his retort. Thoughts and curiosities wound their way through her diseased mind as she digested his vocalizations, wondering whether or not the child?s mother was an ally to hers or if the woman whom had birthed the intricately-designed male before her reigned supreme over a pack without Morphine?s permission. As she pondered that possibility, she feared for the life and reputation of Oberon and his mother, understanding fully that her mother would find displeasure that another creature was attempting to establish dominance over the lesser canines as well, their ambitions similar. But as further words cascaded from the velveteen lips of the stranger across from where she had rooted herself, voicing a possibility, the pallid babe bobbed her skull briefly, allowing the idea to grow upon her. ?Well, we must be!? she confirmed, mismatched gaze sweeping over the form of her lost ?brother,? a devious smirk creeping up upon her typically vague countenance. ?Mom owns everything, so yeah!? the viper reasoned, plush tendril of a tail waving behind her rump to accept her new sibling. Although they appeared nothing alike and she hadn?t heard of any other siblings aside from Cody and Ares that belonged to Morphine, the probability of Oberon being her relative seemed to be the only logical answer in this situation. After all, Morphine was the ultimate sovereign of the island, and there was no more room granted for secondary queens. A slight confidence enveloped the babe and she maneuvered sluggishly towards her sibling, her stance remaining entirely neutral although a desire to test this male?s combative abilities grew within her. As the distance between the duo closed dramatically, leaving only inches between their minuscule forms, the babe extended her muzzle towards the right shoulder of the dappled brute, allowing her dampened nose to press against the plush fur embellishing his form, indicating her adoration towards any who shared the Elysius blood and title, disregarding the fact that she had barely met the tyke. She allowed her neck to crane back to its original position, bringing her skull level to her spinal column once more as her pupils traversed the plains of his physique, oblivious to the fact that they did not share similar traits like she and Ares or Cody had. As the male?s suggestion breached the tainted atmosphere, causing the babe?s triangular ears to careen forward to greet the sound, she nodded, muzzle turning back towards Mount Volkan as she considered bringing her sibling back to Tortuga. ?Wanna go see mom?? the child questioned, her tones hopeful although her visage regained its emotionless fa?ade. |
