As beautiful as Snowbound was, it really hadn't been for him. The snow was a nice touch - especially for someone who had both an elk body and a fox body at their disposal - but when it came down to it, he hadn't been happy there. The cold got to be too cold and the pictures he was taking were simply the same white landscape over and over again. Besides, he was a traveller by very definition- staying in one place was not something he actively strove to do. He would have joined the Ascendants if it were up to him because that was where Beverly was and he had quite the crush on her. But Ilijas knew how creepy that would be and, out of an innate fear of scaring the all-too-familiar girl off, chose a different place. One that reminded him of home he knew he had never inhabited.
The journey to the Sunhaven territory had been a long one mainly because his idiotic self had to pause every time the light fell upon a flower or a piece of grass or a tree just the right way to snap a picture. What had been initially a three day trip turned into one that spanned a week and, as he paused upon the border, the silver bengal realized that he was absolutely exhausted. His satchel weighed a bit too heavily upon his shoulder and his legs ached from carrying him the long distance to his new home. Home. How strange that word suddenly sounded in the context of this situation. When it came down to it, Ilijas didn't really have a home. He wandered and wandered and wandered and made a home out of himself and his happiness. But maybe he could make this work.
[color=gray]"Hey? Anyone here?" He called out, a tail twitching. What he'd give to whip out the good old camera and begin snapping merrily away but he knew that he at least had to be polite. As friendly as this clan may be, he still didn't think they'd take well to him just disregarding their territory lines for a few pretty pictures. [color=gray]"My name is Ilijas Valentine and I guess I'm looking to join." Simple. Easy. Casual. His introduction was just as he liked it.
(this is awful bc it's 2am and i'm EXHAUSTED)
