very slight pp of artyom finding sal. i can change it if need be! <3

for all of his fault — and of those there are numerous — salvatore hasn't fled. though he doesn't go out of his way to be sociable, preferring to keep to himself and work thru the potential of consequences he and kaori may endure — children being one of them. regardless, he plans to face them at her side ...whatever that comes to entail in the ( near ) future. she would not bare it all alone. killmonger could say what he wanted but salvatore was not a coward; despite that he's not particularly enthusiastic about what the fate of their small and unusual and unjoined family might suffer.

his steps pause at the borders at the sound of approaching footfalls, ears fluttering back and pivoting forward as he glimpses around with his singular eye to determine where they hail from beyond within the territory. soon enough, artyom's figure appears and salvatore dips his head in greeting to his now-leader.
