SO RICH, SO PRETTY
The arctic follows her, every step she makes. When she moves closer to him, he watches her carefully, and notes the fog that hangs on his maw. His breath becomes accentuated by the cold, each exhale clinging to his whiskers.
Family. A powerful word, and her reaction to it does not go unnoticed. Kirin knew a thing or two about family. Family was forever, it was essential and important. Family sticks together, they look out for their own, and be damned if anyone fucked with his. His Mother had imparted this notion on them all, whether his Father felt the same is unknown, but Killgore insisted he had- and so it was true. His uncle, though strained as he was with them at times, was of the very same learning.
She once had a family, he nods to show he is listening, because this opportunity was one of importance. He had to have her, she was his already as far as he was concerned. He imagined whisking her away to the Cove where he would have use of her, and her talents. Gains, my dear, gains.
It may be curious for some that did not know him well, his immediate venom for her statements. Not the part about living in the Chamber, that was were his uncle stayed- and he held them no ill will. No, that wasn't the problem, it was that last bit. ..being held in the Gates.. Immediately his mind screamed Tioga!, his hazel eyes flashed with anger. Through gritted teeth he responds, "The Gates you say? I thought that..nevermind." His mouth snaps shut and he is silent, it is apparent his mind is working viciously over this information. She's done this to him, he is sure of it, though how she had known of his meeting with Wayra he didn't know.
His lavender head snaps up, staring the blue girl in the eyes with ferocity, "Who, who took you there?" It's a growl, that ripples up his throat, one that snaps and clamps it's teeth. Almost a demand as it bursts from his lips. Soon he is laughing though, and he braces himself to brush her neck with his mouth. "Six months, or sooner." He chants into her skin, before pulling back from the frost, and claiming her eyes again. "I will not simply let this go Wayra, I will not simply let you go." All he knows is that he must have her, all he knows is the Gates is to blame for the inconvenience he's been caused. The Gates and his abjured sister, Tioga.
