Iro met the Anima's gaze with a raise ehad, but, as always, the snake's expression was impassive. A forked tongue flicked out as the viper studied the snowy she-wolf. Whatever conclusion he came to, the tafa neglected to divulge as he simply lowered his head back down. Leocadio chuckled lightly, "Better your tail than something else." Better a tail than a leg. A wolf could still function with only part of a tail. With such ferocity, if Silver was ever in danger, Wynd would be a valuable protector.
[break][break]
Leo held a smile in his eyes, "I wouldn't dare argue with the great Anima." It was a tease obviously. Knowing Leo, he'd argue with anyone if he didn't agree with them. The off-white brute never hesitated to state his opinions. Everything he said, he said without any care for how his words would affect others. He never made half-measures nor did he hold back. His uncaring nature often made him the subject of ire among his peers.
[break][break]
"Does he?" Leo asked darkly. Alesso had found himself banished because he hadn't known better. Had the brute truly known better, he'd still be with the pack. Alesso likely wouldn't be back, but Leo had no desire to see the exile again whether it was on pack grounds or not. "He shouldn't have been given even this chance," he growled. The shepherd didn't believe in second chances, especially when the lives of the tafa had been at risk. Despite second chances being the reason his family still spoke to him, he didn't believe in giving others the same grace.
[break][break]
His brother's name did placate Leo a little. He'd didn't need to visit his brother's den covered in wounds. Such a sight would not ease the tensions at home. "There are many more who don't," he muttered bitterly. He'd put himself in the situation. He was well aware of that fact, but that didn't mean he couldn't hold a grudge. Despite their banter, Silver was likely just saying it because of her position as Anima. That was how it was.

I don't wanna live for nothing Silver looked back at Iro, head tilted but made no move to encroach on the reptiles personal space. She turned her attention back to Leocadio, a smile slipping over her lips, "that's a good point but I'm sure Wynd was going to be content with any body part until I finally turned to face the proud creature." She laughed softly at the startled look on the badgers face when she had decided to stop fighting and their bond had been formed.
Her eyes drifted up, meeting Lecadio's and for a moment it was like her heart seemed to forget how to work. "The great Anima," her scoff was more like a cough in response, "sometimes arguing can raise new ideas...sometimes." She said, being one to like hearing both sides of stories even though she wasn't the biggest fan of conflict.
"He better." She replied to the question about Alesso, her eyes narrowing, "Leocadio," she turned to look at him, "we may have differing view points on this but to me, everyone deserves at least a second chance, this is the first time he has stepped foot in our land since being banished, I may have been too kind but I draw the line now. If he returns his blood will soak this earth." With a shake of her head she looked away. if he did return she realized she may have to witness the destruction but, he had been warned and this was it.
"Well those who don't," the moonlit fae brought her face back to Leocadio's, her body moving as if on its own as she leaned over, nudging his shoulder with her nose, "don't matter. There's no point in giving second thoughts to those who are like that in your life. I learned that a long, long, time ago." |

"The tafa will do anything to be noticed by their wolf," Leo said, smiling. The Coming-of-Age Ceremony was completed alone. No one could tell a wolf what the right answer was, because no one knew. Some wolves entered the Citadel absolutely certain who their tafa was only to be completely wrong. Leo had known from the beginning that Iro was his. At his Ceremony, he hadn't hesitated a single step in his path. Iro had been waiting, appearing peeved at how long he'd taken.
[break][break]
"Sometimes, it will only make things worse," he said bitterly. His family had broken apart, because they'd argued. He remembered that morning as clearly as if it'd happened yesterday. The blood in his eyes clouding his vision as he and Malana tore into each other. The harsh words they'd shared that day had left all of them broken. Even so, he didn't regret what he'd said. He'd been right then, and he was right now. Everything would have been different if Nuala had been stronger.
[break][break]
Leo huffed, "That makes two of us." The shepherd had met the exile with harsh words. Had the situation escalated, his fangs would have followed. But Leo was no warrior. Though he spoke as much, it would likely have been his blood that soaked the earth rather than Alesso's. The meager amount of training before his schooling and during it would not match the efforts of a fully-trained warrior.
[break][break]
The unexpected touch caused Leo to step back. The surprise was clear on his normally frosty face. Such signs of affection were foreign to him. As much as others kept their distance from him, he did the same. Stunned to silence, Leo only stared until Iro started wiggling on his neck. The snake was laughing at him. Annoyed at his tafa, Leo stuttered, "I-I suppose so." Turning his head up and avoiding Silver's eyes, he attempted to regain his composure, "What do they know."

I don't wanna live for nothing "And that's a fact." Silver laughed, hearing the tales of how other wolves had met their Tafa's was something the Anima loved to hear, each story more unique than the last...plus it amused her when others asked for her story and were left staring at her in shock when she explained how Wynd had acted upon their meeting. To her it showed how everyone could take different paths while making their way through life.
She tilted her head thoughtfully, "sometimes it will...I do believe that's why they say...choose your battles wisely? I think that applies to verbal ones as well." She said with a hint of a smile, about done with the serious conversation, feeling like that meant to be discussed had been done so...now all she had to do was hope that if Alesso, for some idiotic reason, did come back, Leocadio would think twice...and if not hopefully she'd be summoned in time-even if she didn't want to spill the blood of someone she had once taken pity on.
The second he had taken a step back Silver realized she may have done too much, even if she hadn't thought before reaching out to him she felt a brush of panic and readied herself for some kind of negative reaction. She wasn't sure what he would do but she knew she'd deserve it. Silver eyed him from the side, noting how Iro seemed to shake and Leocadio turned his head away but when he finally spoke she released the breath she didn't realize she had been holding. "They only know falsehoods." She replied softly, looking away as to not make things anymore awkward, "and paint themselves in a negative light." |

Leo huffed, displeased and unwilling to admit Silver was right. Pick your battles wisely. Leo didn't always do so. Never may be more accurate. Bullheaded, he'd charge right into a situation he shouldn't. For better or worse, the off-white shepherd never gave up on his beliefs. As often as they got him in hot water, he would never abandon them.
[break][break]
He nodded in abrupt agreement, "That they do." But things were awkward now, and he couldn't muster up more than a brisk reply. This and the incident with Yevara. Silver had seen him in too many unflattering instances. He was starting to look like a fool. Embarrassment lacing through him, he muttered, "I must be going." Leo didn't need Silver seeing himself make a bigger fool of himself than he already had. He was learning, much to his displeasure, that his ice wasn't all he was. It got broken far too easily and far too often by the Anima. He needed to get away from this snow-like fae that kept chipping away at his armor.
[break][break]
"May the rest of your day be better," he said with a hasty bow. With Iro settled at the base of his neck, he turned and trotted off with his head held high in an attempt to regain his pride.

I don't wanna live for nothing Silver was left a bit bewildered by Leo's sudden departure. As she watched his retreating form she wondered if she had said something wrong, a bit of nerves gripping her heart. She had thought that the two were getting on better terms but maybe that was her own mind playing tricks on her. Her gaze turned troubled and she remained standing there, wondering what she had done or said wrong. She hadn't heard the embarrassment in his voice, her anxieties still insisting that she had done wrong.
"I suppose I can try." She whispered to herself even though she was utterly alone. She turned away from where Leo had gone, making the long trudge back towards her den. Perhaps her day could get better with a nap, at least that's what she called curling up in the back of her den to avoid the world for a moment until the voice in her head shut up. |
