taking steps is easy; standing still is hard

Detty?. The inquiry caused Deteste's heart to flutter. He gazed curiously at the girl, disregarding Basilisk's temporary state of alarm. A wiry but muscled limb was extended, his digits resting gently upon Aegira's shoulder as the man pulled her an inch closer. Hello Aegira. he spoke, his timbre was gentle and even in the dark she would be able to see the soft smile that had tightened his scarred lips. She reminded him very much of Jupiter. Both in appearance and character but most importantly in the way that her presence lightened the man's heart. Regardless of the distress he may otherwise be experiencing.


His eyes would rise to meet Basilisk's inquiry but only for a moment as his attention was returned to Aegira as she introduced him. He nodded in acknowledgement of the statement and again looked up at the young man who, in his own way, represented his parents with striking similarity. I am Deteste. A caretaker of Aegira. he finally spoke. He had decided that it was unnecessary to state his pack or rank. Deteste was unsure of the likeliness that the pup would recognize his name but regardless it was not his fashion to flaunt his rank for even inside of the red forest he judged others for their character and not for the title that they carried.
