Azure had no cause to refute her response and turned his head away from his mate as she stood and began to investigate the ear on the den floor. Staring into the plush fur bedding beneath him he wracked his brain, trying to put timelines together and draw on memories of Hana's own early stages of pregnancy. He'd paid so little attention that truthfully, Az could not argue that she might have discovered Sparrow's as innocently as she'd stated.

As movement caught the corner of his eye once more his gaze shifted, watching critically as she crossed the floor and placed the trophy alongside the rest of the baubles he'd acquired for her over their lives. While he was hyper-aware and alert to see any subtle sign that the dismemberment bothered her, he was forced to accept that there was nothing he could pick out and weaponize. Fuck.

And then her paw gave a small stomp upon the floor and his attention was swiftly redirected, the muscles in his body tensing at her call-to-post signature gesture. It meant fury and fire, since the very day he'd met her in the woods. Azure met her challenging gaze with a lifting of his own skull, holding her gaze at equal height despite their differences in positioning. "Sparrow said she fucked you." The expletive was all but a snarl, his tail lashing through the bedding once in frustration. "Was this before or after you 'chose' me? 'Chose' your children? 'Chose' your life in the Armada where you are pampered and protected?"

In one sudden movement he pushed himself firmly to his paws, taking a long stride down from the raised bed and into her space where he could make her feel the impact of his words properly. "I have given everything to you. Everything I have. Everything I am. I have maimed for you, killed for you, practically grovelled on your behalf making excuses for you -" (It was clear from his tone which of those were the most annoying for Azure to suffer) "- I've destroyed relationships to keep you, I gave away an Empire to be allowed to love you, and nothing is ever enough!"

Before her the titanic brute held his most domineering of postures, tail flagged, ears pitched forward, aggression clear in every movement and muscle and yet, he could not bring himself to hurt her. Each violent scenario played out in images behind his eyes and none offered even a glimmer of hope of the catharsis he needed. "I need effort Hana! I need you to prove that I'm more to you than a convenience or a path to luxury. That you're with me for reasons that aren't your consistent need for validation and adoration. Do you even know what love is?"

"Speech"




Both of Azure's ears have notches and tears.
Az has a scar across his right eye, a mirror image of his natural born marking.
Azure has saber fangs, bone spurs on his elbows and knees, and the paws/forelimbs of a bear.
Not all of these features are always reflected in his art.

Azure's companions are a very big bat and a young clouded leopard, unless otherwise stated assume they're not with him.
