for @Drogon :D
crybaby - lil peep
Zen shivered.
His coat, though plush and abundant did not have the same thick consistency of a wolf's and as temperatures got lower the he would continue to shiver in a desperate attempt to maintain his body heat.

Out where he was, along the coast  there was nothing to shield him from the cold winds. But honestly the winds were the least of his worries, at the moment it was his growling stomach that demanded the Unkan's full attention.

With his pink nose hovering over the sand, the small tiger began his search. Quickly enough he found something,  a reddish critter half buried in the sand. He lunged instantly, sharp teeth piercing the crab's hard exterior with ease.

It was nice to know his god had not forsaken him.

Drogon’s pelage — a gift from his tundrian heritage — is thick and plush, the longer, wispier tendrils of fur in his silvery, blueish grey ‘mane’ offers additional warmth but beyond that it is, perhaps, unintentionally aesthetic. The wind that is a constant companion to the sea is not very bothersome to the sakaali. Most of this scouting trip he has work the mask of the jackal, testing it out, feeling how this mask differs from the other he had adopted. Thus far, the sakaali is quieter, more of an observer, a collector of information than it’s more eager for war counterparts. It’s represents the developing diplomatic side of Drogon but it is wily and coy too; traits of it’s namesake. No matter which mask the Ansbjørn wears he is never overly fond of sand and frowns as it clings to the fur of his toes and legs despite that he has avoided the low reaching but nevertheless greedy waves that crash softly upon the dry sands of the Cape.

It is a beautiful territory, he admits willingly enough to himself. The crystalline clarity of the water is breathtaking and the aspiring ranger could appreciate that from a detached, aesthetic point of view well enough. He would never want to make a home here, though. A flash of movement catches the corner of his glacial gaze and his hackles rise in a bristle, his head snapping in the direction of the crunch of teeth piercing the exterior of a crab’s shell. Drogon does not immediately recognize that was what the sound was, but he sees the flash of crab red and then notes the canine responsible for it. From the distance Drogon takes the rare opportunity to assess the other; male his black, leathery nostrils tell him as he gives a slight lift of his muzzle to sniff at the air.

The scent that layers upon wolf bring it with a vague sort of familiarity. This is not the first wolf-dog that Drogon has brushed shoulders with but still the sight of the beast that looks more dog than he does wolf is startling to the sakaali who is abruptly unsure whether he is meant to be aggressive towards the hybrid or not. Drogon does not immediately seek to make his presence known, does not want to spark aggression from the other while he dines. He waits until the other is seemingly finished with the crab and then lets out a chuff to announce his presence, lingering in the spot where he had initially stopped to admire the cape figuring that the more distance between them: the better. Drogon likes Lavender well enough but there is something he finds wrong and unsettling about hybrids ( ironic that he’s finding himself prejudiced considering he, himself, is a hybrid with about twenty five percent of coyote blood in him though he is unaware of this ) ...that they are something that should not be.

IM DYING WITH DROG'S AVATAR
also i can never match your posts lenght lol

He chewed quickly, not even truly savoring his find, sorta as if he were afraid that if he didn't eat fast enough, this gift brought upon him would be taken away and for his sins he'd be punished. Though the crab was a good example of the god's mercy, a direct blessing even, it did not mean all was forgiven.

He had not left in the best terms with his parents and the elder members of the pack, so the cold and hunger he was currently enduring was well merited. He had sought a different life from the one in Unkan, and it did not and would not come freely.
Suffering is an inseparable element of living. 

To live is to suffer.
Zen knew this, just as he knew that all suffering has a cause.
Misfortunes came to those who were subject to desires and cravings, so to eliminate suffering one had to let go on mundane desires.
But it was easier said than done, Zen knew this too.
At the same time he craved happiness and interior peace, he craved greatness and recognition.
Narcissitic desires that made him all the more deserving of the pain of his sore paws. 

Then, suddenly, just as he's done swallowing the last bits of crab a voice calls out to him. 
Zen turns brusquely, the fur along the nape of his neck bristling as he searches for the face behind the greeting. Quickly he finds a man, a full blooded wolf, of dark fur staring at him.
He doesn't seem threatening (for now) but it never hurts to keep his guard up.

"hello, i am zen" he barks whilst making a quick bow, not in a display of submission but just as a traditional gesture used when greeting another. 
He is after all  a mui, he doesn't owe loyalty to anyone but his god.

you never have to worry about matching the length of my posts. most of it is rambling filler anyway, lol! & snowdoggo/idiot drogon is my fave, lmao

Sakaali watches as the abomination wolf-dog turns to face him with bristled hackles. It is a fair enough gesture: Drogon knows he would have done the same but the Ansbjørn does not curb the lift of his chin or slight curl of his upper lip in response. There is a rise of disgust in his throat towards the mutt that stands across from him as Drogon wonders why he bothered to linger or even to call out to him. His sudden rise of prejudice is unexpected — there is no indication as to where it started or much less why — but it is there all the same. Perhaps Drogon would feel differently if he knew his father was a coywolf …or perhaps he would feel his own genetics are diluted enough; but he does not know and thus it does not matter. The wolf-dog introduces himself as Zen and Drogon’s ear twitches as he tucks the information away. Sakaali.” The jackal introduces himself using the name of the mask he currently bore, a wily smirk tugging at the edges of his lips. That is what this mask is: wily, cunning and ironically diplomatic. It is why it bears the name of jackal; the charmer and the cobra all in one. “What brings you to the Cape?” Sakaali inquires in a pleasant and conversationally curious manner. The world is his stage and if he does not practice his acting how can he ever consider himself worthy of the skillset?
