I NEED YOU SO MUCH CLOSER / death

[deimos]

bad girlfriend

Death wasn't something Myhri had considered for himself. Heroics weren't for him, either. Myhri just wanted an easy life, living in the middle of the extremes and staying under the radar. Repeated abuses circled his mind, Orange Eyes making his life a living hell at every step. The thought of her made his ears flatten. That was one fight he had run from. He could have killed her, wrapped his fangs around his neck and dug in, murdering the rascal for hurting him and using him.

But he didn't. That was a wall he couldn't leap, killing someone. He would be no hero if he did, after all. He would be as bad as them for trying to kill him in turn, for doing something he didn't really do. Myhri was only reminded of this futile circle- where dog eats dog, and Pittians murder jaguars- when he came across the body. Myhri had been wandering the cold tundra to find food, but found something deathly instead.

It only reminded him of that bear. It only reminded him of the trek they all went upon, the one that all came to an end. But Damianos' had ended early. The sharp, warm smell of the desert. The unmoving, bloodied body of the god that Myhri had learned to care for, to feed- that god couldn't even do that much for himself. Myhri slowly sat, his heart racing and mind blank. Did he scream for help? Would he cry over the body of the god? Would he cry? No, Myhri didn't cry. He wouldn't, he couldn't just cry-

In his stupor, he barely managed to notice the body laying next to Damian.

In the silence the three shared, Myhri barely noticed the yips in the distance.

Myhri's jaw worked for a moment, before prying open and mumbling a few words. "Sabishiku naru yo." He managed. He couldn't understand, really, why he missed him. Why he couldn't just move past it, like he had with so many others before. Slowly, he looked towards the marbled fox. Myhri stared at him, and looked on, before slowly pushing to his paws. He stepped about Damian's body gently, before lowering his nose towards the fox and gently nudging him with it.

"Hey." He whispered, afraid of breaking the silence of the tender situation.
