Ouroboros Spine I had a violin somewhere, I was gonna play it all sarcastically

Our way. That's right. He was an outsider here merely glimpsing in at a world he didn't understand. He'd picked up on things sure. Aggression first. Questions later. Or never at all. Most likely never. Yes or no questions. If body language couldn't communicate it, whatever you wanted to say was too complex. And she was the queen of all of it. A woman of barbaric instinct.

His eyes narrowed as she continued, elaborating on her desires. He'd asked her a number of times what she wanted. What she needed. He'd become most of that; shifted his wanderlust to fall beneath her expectations for her rule.  

Save for this one thing; this one way of life and decision he felt out-dated and far too simple for instinct alone. The way she spoke of strength seemed narrow and too focused. She threw her weight around far too easily, resorting to brute strength when he knew very well there were far many more kinds than that which she described. She had all the physical strength wrapped in that behemoth of a body that any one wolf would ever need. There were days where he wondered if she knew any other kind.

"There's more to it than brawn alone." That was the beginning and the end of it. She was a powerhouse. As she currently stood, any wolf within her midsts was a submissive to her sheer size and the promise of her snarls. He'd watched them all bow too easily. None measured to who and what she was. None would rise to a position truly equal to that of which she held. Pretty to think that. Bully to those who wished to try and would ultimately fail.

His gaze held her own. His golden stare was met with sanguine brown; alight with passion and promise born from a place he would never truly know. He was not quite finished here, but he knew a wall when he saw one. There would be no persuasion here. No changing of her mind or methods. She had decided and, with that realization, a sinking dread swelled within him.

He diverted his gaze, letting it sweep aside before he turned it back in her direction. "Watch your spawn be stronger than shit and dumber than dirt." A lazy grin fell upon his lips. A wag to his tail.
