— Бра́тья Карама́зовы
Weeks had passed since the incident with the giant multi-eyed monster and while the trauma had not exactly worn off all the way, Ivan was making an attempt to brave the outer reaches of the territory again. He usually stayed a distance away from Selby in which he could scent him and still feel safe without having to reveal himself to his father. Things hadn’t gone better since Winston’s disappearance and Ivan coped by desperately forcing himself to carve out a relationship with his bird. It was going well, though he couldn’t rush something like that.
The wind suddenly shifted and Ivan could no longer sense Selby. His mouth parting and nostrils flaring, Ivan tried to calm his wildly beating heart as he struggled to find either his father or his way back home. He always relied on his scent, he just couldn’t see very well. He was baffled to have a foreign scent invade his nose. The young cat had smelled Pitt and Typhoon before, but Elysium was a new one and much more comforting than the other two.
Ivan picked up his pace and immediately lurched for Selby, standing a tail-length away from him as he angled his head to look at the Elysites. He caught the bits of conversation and he was interested for two reason. The first obviously being his brother’s whereabouts being known and the other was about their star festival. He had almost felt to berate his brother for leaving, but holy shit. Was there really a group dedicated to the stars like he was?
”Star Collision?” An uneasy pause. ”Is he — is he coming back?
