songbirds & snakes

Still staring at the narrow crevice the serpent had escaped into, Sephiran was snarling out of malice and contempt- fangs bared at rock face, a paw outstretched and clawing at the opening. But the snake had already vanished into the inner labyrinth. Leaving him with nothing more than a sour taste in his mouth, and a hit to his ego. Turning away, tail flicking wildly behind him. He gravitated back towards Aurelia, who had a small snake coiled around her forearm. The enthusiastic grin on her face, added fuel to the fire. As he glared at her, the expression on his face read loud and clear. Wipe that smile off your face or I’ll kill the snake. The low growl rumbling from his chest, and his erect tail enhanced his show of aggression. Heterochromatic eyes boring into hers, before he turned away and went back to the rock face. Jealous and enraged that she'd so easily bewitched a snake, while he was struggling to get one himself.

He would continue to try and capture a snake. Repeating the errors over and over- receiving bites here and there, from nonvenomous snakes who got in his way. Whatever Aurelia chose to do now, didn’t matter to him. He was far too focused on trying to enslave his next companion.
