AURUM
DO NO HARM BUT TAKE NO SHIT !
[/td][td][/td][/tr][/table]
Astiar's latest visit had been, thankfully for the both of them, quick and painless, aside from some shouting on the Tanglewood side. Thankfully for Aurum because the proxy didn't particularly want the others to see him flying off the handle again – although the screaming and shouting was pretty unusual for the calm and warm lion – and thankfully for Astiar, because it meant that the giant draconic bug would not end up with teeth sunk into his carapace again, or magna bubbling and eating away at his flesh. The proxy had been so caught up in the rage building in his chest that he nearly didn't hear Kaito's soft and pleasing voice directed at him, calmly trying to get him to cool the fuck down and think about what he was doing. Aurum could still feel his tail lashing angrily from side to side behind him as he listened to the phantom thief, but he ceased his yelling for the moment, lava still dripping down slowly and steadily from his jaws despite his efforts to stop it. He knew that Kaito's efforts to communicate with Astiar were essentially useless, even if the large draconic bug had gained a few new tricks since the last time he had been there. As if on cue, Astiar let out a mental screech about food that made Aurum wince, his ears flattening down against his skull as he glared at the Pittian, secretly very pleased his lava still frightened the creature.
Leroy was over and talking as well, supporting the lion's point perfectly with his words. Albeit in a slightly less furious fashion – although his speech did twist a little bit at certain parts, becoming more firm and aggravated. Aurum nodded his head in agreement with Leroy's words, rumbling as he looked at Kaito, "This creature is the absolute shitstain who stole Roy away from me briefly and took him to the Pitt where he was brainwashed. I don't care how stupid the thing is, I don't want to see its face around here anymore." His voice was solid and unwavering, and he meant every word of what he said. Perhaps he was being a little bit cruel, or maybe slightly too harsh, but the proxy honestly didn't give a shit. If it hadn't been for Astiar, then Roy never would've ended up at the Pitt, and he wouldn't have to deal with the painful memories of being brainwashed, unable to remember those that loved him. Just the thought of it made Aurum's chest ache painfully, anger eating away at his chest, and he snapped at Astiar, his lips pulled back to show off bright and sharp fangs, "What you brought us isn't fucking food. And if you're here expecting handouts or forgiveness, you can go fuck yourself. I don't even know if you can actually understand a goddamn word coming out of my mouth but if you can? Fuck off." Part of him really just wanted to charge forward and let the fury grip him. Let it redden his vision and fill his ears with ringing and just tear, tear, tear until there was no Astiar left to return to the Pitt. Still, he held himself back, just taking a deep inhale outward and a slow exhale out.
When Astiar began to move again, Aurum immediately tensed up, his eye narrowing angrily and the production of lava speeding up. He fully expected the creature to move forward and do something even more stupid, like attempt touching one of them or even work up the balls to attack. However, he was wrong, and all Astiar did was shift around, his large body seemingly working out what it was doing before he let his many legs bunch up, flinging him off into the sky. The proxy felt surprise for a moment, before it was rapidly replaced with relief, a slow sigh leaving him as exhaustion filled up his every limb. He watched for another moment as Astiar went flying off into the distance before he allowed himself to turn around, shaking his head firmly. The lava drooling out of his mouth and pooling on the ground beneath him ceased, and he mumbled as he began to pad towards the town, "Jesus Christ... I'm going back to town. I need a nap or something after this nonsense." He took a few long strides before launching himself up and into the air, his wings granting him liftoff back towards the comfort and rest that his new home provided.
