bear necessity

With the release and draining of the adrenaline that raced through his veins Lachlan wasn’t feeling near as cheery as Tyrian. With the amusement that fell from the King’s lips made Lachlan’s pull up lightly despite the pain. Seeing him so easily chase off their opponent was incredible and if Tyr hadn’t impressed him before, the respect Lach had for the fanged man was only encouraged. When Tyrian’s attention was returned to him the moment sombered. He was injured, a fact that would not be ignored with the throbbing he felt over the side of his face and in his brain.

Tyrian showed no hesitation as he approached, the concern obvious on his features as he lifted a paw to the wound. Lachlan tried not to put much weight on the nonchalant way he’d mentioned thanking him later. At the back of his mind Lachlan had wondered if Tyr would even remember him, he had drunk quite a bit that night they met. Of all his memories though, the slate marked King was most clear in his mind. There would be no forgetting their experience together. The close contact seemed natural an oddity for how well they knew each other. The Valentine man would admit the difference between Tyrian and any other stranger. He knew Lachlan intimately and garnered much more liberty than any other individual.

With red ears slicked to his head and his cheeks growing warm with the close contact his blush would only intensify as Tyrian spoke softly while looking over the damage. The massive wolf seemed unfazed by recent events, the cool calm demeanor put Lachlan at ease over the potential harm, but his body was abuzz with being reunited with Tyr. ”No… ah..” He stuttered lightly as he pulled his tail closer to his hip. He blinked his bloodied eye again, unable to see but once it was cleared his vision would return. He smiled sweetly despite the pain, ”What would the best way to get your attention be?” Lachlan returned instead of denying the teasing accusation.

With those words he felt a thrill in his chest, his assumption had been that after such a crazy night that was it. Lachlan didn’t see himself in any kind of… long term situation. He’d known that he wanted to see Tyrian again, and not completely because of curiosity if he’d been remembered or not.
