When he left home, Gabriel hadn't stayed in one place for too long. The group he'd remained with for years, but their calling led them to travel frequently, and it seemed more prudent, in the beginning, not to have an established installation anywhere. When they grew larger, then an area to operate out of became possible, and so, for a short while, Gabe had a place to bunk down and call his, whereas before that had entailed claiming the least bumpy bit of ground to stretch out on. Following that absolute disaster, he'd gone on the road, hadn't stayed anywhere longer than a few days, and that trend continued even after he took Lazarus under his wing. It wasn't until they showed up at The Ascendants that the hybrid had something at least semi-permanent. It was...Gabe hesitated to say it was nice, but it was comfortable, especially when he could familiarize himself with the territory and thus walk with less caution for who owned what. He knew it wouldn't last, because nothing did, though he could enjoy it for the duration.
One of his favorite aspects was the openness, however much he bitched about the grass. It made flying far more thrilling, despite the shadow he cast, and at the moment, Gabe was content in the ruffling of his feathers as he simply rode the currents. He couldn't commit himself to this peace for much longer, as far below, he could see a stranger on their border, likely another arriving to have a taste of what The Ascendants had to offer. Smartasses and softies both.
The hybrid dropped down, his landing involving a bit of a hop to accommodate his talons. Dark eyes scrutinized the canine, and if he could smirk, he would. "Pretty tempting to say 'fuck it' and walk over, isn't it?" He cocked his head. "That is what you want, isn't it? There's not much else you could want, and you don't look like you're selling cookies." Gabe wished. He fucking loved cookies, although he wasn't even certain he could eat them with his digestive system the way it was.
