ligers are a lie

Ronan knew cats came in all shapes and sizes,but this thing? It was uncomfortably big, must've put a strain on its own body with the sheer size of it. He couldn't quite put a paw on what it was either, its features a mismatch of what he thought a big cat ought to look like. Pale like a lion but stripey like a tiger. He supposed ultimately it didn't matter, because it was pissed and coming right for him. Rushing out of the cave like its tail was set afire, with added hissing and snarling for good measure.

His lip curled as he stood his ground, waiting to see if it was a mock charge or the real deal.
