Ouroboros Spine even atlas cannot stand forever

There is a hostile growl that originates near Drogon’s position and the blue-black hackles along his spine bristle, his lip curling back over his teeth though he has yet to actually cross paths with the owner of the noise. The noise brings with it a flood of unbidden annoyance and a ( perhaps stupid ) desire to laugh because this was neutral territory and he’s not about to deal with anyone’s hostile bullshit just because they’re in the same vicinity. Perhaps the owner of the growl intends to seek claim here and even if that’s true there’s no urine markings to indicate such a claim and Drogon’s always had a bit of an authority issue as it was. He does alright in Moonspear but the only leader he really comes into contact a whole lot with ( and even ‘a whole lot’ isn’t all that much ) is Hydra ( or at least he assumes it’s Hydra, it could be one of her sisters for all he knows ). Generally, he sticks to his patrols, or his practice spars or his tracking and tries his best to stay out of Charon and Amekaze’s radar. He respects them enough to not want to be trouble for them, to just pull his weight and remain in the shadows ( which ironic for one that loves attention as much as he does ).

The tundrian’s posture is tense and weary as the ebon sylph emerges into his view, her eyes as frigid as his own. Her growl has died in her throat as the pair of them stare at one another — because Drogon assess her just as she, no doubt, does to him. She sparks no recognition within him. He does not know her, does not know who she used to be, does not know that his mother fought her while she carried him and his siblings. Perhaps they are meant to be blood enemies: a new generation of hatred and spite but the reality of it is: she is just a stranger to Drogon — and even if he hadn’t forced himself to forget where he’s come from and who he really is it’s highly unlikely he’d have known who she was anyway. “Are you seeking to claim this territory?” Drogon asks her straightforward, wanting an explanation for the hostility he still feels emitting from her because there’s no real call for it. He’s just trying to explore and not get sucked into the mud not instigate a fight with her …which is what her posture suggests to him: that she’s ready to lunge or defend herself at any given second.
