I CAN'T DECIDE / private, shininglight

[Luca]

Whoever Luca was tracking, they were getting closer. The hellhound drew his wings tight to his body and nosed his way through some foliage, rose eyes instantly finding a form on the other side. White fur stood out against the green of the forest, causing his eyes to narrow for a beat before focusing. It took a second for the realisation to hit, but then his eyes widened, heat rising to Luca's cheeks. He recognised that signature pelt, those black hawk wings. The amber eye was new, but this was definitely the same Shininglight that he had fallen in love with all those months ago. A small gasp left his throat, and suddenly he was leaping at the feline, nuzzling him affectionately and licking his cheek. "Shine! Oh, Shine I missed you so much! I was so, so worried when you went missing, I thought you were dead!" Tears wet the fur of Luca's cheeks, his tail whipping excitedly from side to side. He hadn't seen anyone from his past since he joined the Typhoon, except Argus, but he couldn't say he was excited to re-encounter the animal that had ripped out his eyes. Shine was much better, yes, Shine was kind and forgiving and cute, and Luca was utterly delighted to have him back in his sights again.
