SEPHIROTH

It was painfully boring the Rosebloods recently, despite war being on the near horizon the day to day activities of the group had grown stale and usual and infrequent.  The leader stayed regardless.  Any weaker creature would’ve given up and left the group to fade by now, but Sephiroth was not like others.  He was determined and strong willed, making the choice long ago to dedicate himself to the small assembly of animals he had control over.  It was better than wasting away using his strength for nothing.

But the boredom still gnawed at him.  Sephiroth found himself heading towards the oasis on impulse, still keeping his distance from the water, not taking a chance in whether or not it was still poisoned.  The male kept to the shoreline, where sparse trees with leafy tops  and thin trunks  dotted the area to provide shade.  The Pharaoh would lumber over to one of the offending trees, looking it up and down with bright and alive eyes before he stretched out his long body and hooked his claws into the bark and dragged them down with a cracking sound.  The prominent muscles in his back shifted and rippled as he marked his territory, raking his long and intimidating claws across the surface of the tree.  It was a mild release of energy, though it hardly did anything to amuse.

a certain serpent would be laying in the relaxing peace of the oasis, their head down and snoozing, at least, trying to catch up on a few moments of sleep before the nightmares returned.

they opened their eyes to watch sephiroth enter the oasis and pad around, seeming to relax. their gaze followed him when he stretched along a tree and dug his claws into the bark, their gaze appreciating the strength that he carried, not the fact he left a mark in the tree. quickly turning aside their gaze, they pretended to try to go back to sleep but they found it a hard task to accomplish with the other nearby.

most nights, they couldn't sleep unless close to him or had something that smelled of him, but now it seemed that they couldn't sleep with him nearby, especially after that little show of strength on the tree. that had their mind reeling enough to almost choke. today was going to be one interesting day indeed.
