Firefly Glen crashing out into the noise

of course <3 edit: im dumb

iliksis might have played his licking game a while longer, were it not for a soft chuff that whispered through the heather and caused him to close his jaws. his hackles lifted in a wild raze of quills as he looked about him. he assumed the worst, that some soul had come to find him for his depravity -- but the figure that stood across him was no killer.

at least, not yet.

iliksis studied the stranger with a long and hungry stare. it was an adolescent, though not of the flavor that iliksis preferred. male, by the looks of it -- and healthy enough that if iliksis had planned anything unsavory, it may not have been worth the effort. iliksis preferred the vulnerable, and while drogon was young, he lacked the organs that iliksis preferred to lie in.

he was, however, captivated by the male's brilliant gaze. it was an unflinching glacier blue, a color iliksis had not witnessed in a wolf before. he did not get up, though he lifted his chin from the frozen ground and waited the youth's move.
