straight for the throat you’re like an animal!
in for the kill, like you're an animal!
The cheetah heard Ares’s approach. His tail-tip flicked, but only when she spoke his name did his eyes crack open. Ximen raised a wing over his head, shielding his face against the light glinting through the leaves, and yawned himself awake.
“Meditating. Would be nice to nap, too, but I tend to sleep when I don’t want and not when I want.” He rubbed his face with the back of a paw. Had his words made sense? Ugh, he hoped so; he might be able to relate to her own self-control problems with this angle. “The sleep deprivation and insomnia shit can really stress me out if I don’t meditate, you know? Because the frustration makes me even more exhausted and not likely to nap.”
Ximen rolled slightly to get a better look at his niece, but made no move to stand—or even sit—up. “If you’re not busy, why not try meditating with me? Might be useful to you, if you ever find yourself too frustrated to think.”

UNEXPECTED YET EXPECTED —
— i wanted to hate / i wanted to die / i wanted to see you sacrificed / i had to deal with the fear you gave me / but you fucker never tried to help me / i was jealous and i was scared / nobody ever replaced my pain / to say i’m not evil, to tell I’m not bad / too late, i’m lost in human nature / leave me be / set me free / leave me be / set me free / the hardest thing to me is facing the fear i live / no one can help me now, it’s under my heart / i’ll come to know the living, my demons are inside / i’ll bring them all to light / ———— emerged from the dark I come to life!
