Eris is by Poppz!
Of her few skills, among them was not the ability to resist temptation. On the contrary, Eris was no good whatsoever at remaining strong against that which drew her forard -- she leapt and frothed and raged at her chain when there was something she could not have. Or, alternatively, she promptly forgot entirely why she wanted whatever it was she'd been denied in the first place, beautiful and flawless execution of cognitive dissonance at its finest. So it had been with Itachi, and thus, part of his downfall, too. One did not spurn The Auxiliary without consequence, and Eris had seen to that.
Her boss spoke, and the dark woman twisted coal ears toward him to listen to the low growl of his voice, chartreuse eyes glued to his clawed feet. Even they were fine to look upon, and she suppressed a small smile at the thought. Her face remained grave, funny as she thought it was that she'd find her Boss's feet attractive. Yes, my dearest King, she said, murmuring her assent. Salsola could not destroy this novation without provocation -- it was likely these wolves emerged from packs of this area, and it was more likely they still had friends and family to mourn their deaths, if so.
In any case, the sable hybrid had no interest in stirring trouble, and she was glad to hear Sirius agreed. So long as these wolves remained on their side of the mountain and did not harry Salsola's perimeter, nothing changed. This pleased Eris, and she considered his question with a faint smile. Yes, I would like to see the north coast very much. This wintry land puts fire in my blood, she said, thinking such a remark could be taken just as Sirius wished. If he took it as a come-on, that was fine; if he dismissed it, that was just as fine.
Her smile revealed nothing, and the hybrid smiled coyly at her leader, the falsely innocent glance she spared to his chest the highest her eyes dared travel. Perhaps we might ride a bit further, away from this group's stink, and walk the beaches together, she suggested, open to whatever alternatives her Boss had in mind.
