Perhaps other creatures would not be so quick to take pity on a Frankenstein-esque creature such as this one; the hybrid half-wondered if that was where the name Frankie had arisen from, anyway. His tail was the oddest part of him, clearly taken from someone else's body. The hybrid figured whoever it was that had donated the tail was very likely too dead to raise a complaint about it anyway; it would appear the tail was in a pretty sorry state of disrepair along with the rest of Frankie. Kaena was not particularly enamored to this creature, but she did find him fascinating, a fact which her bright gaze served to evince quite well. The single eye never left the other canine as he claimed his prize, the pearly-white skull the coyotes had taken so much care to add to their borders. They were easily replaced, or so Kae figured—it had not been so long ago that she and Hybrid had taken down a poor lonely she-wolf and added her rotting head to the collection.
There was a faint smile, even, on the silver-furred woman's face; she was a mother, after all, and this poor, beaten creature clearly deserved some kind of attention or love, even if it was not exactly the same as the type broadcast to a child. He was no Vieira, that was for sure, but perhaps he could prove himself useful in time, anyway. The hybrid woman looked at him and his eager one-eyed gaze, wondering just what it was that animated such a creature to live. Surely it was not all simple baubles like the skull; surely there had to be some deeper motivation? The hybrid coyote did not know; perhaps she would find out in time. Tossing her head, she turned and headed for the innards of the territory, trotting quickly and knowing Inferni's newest recruit would not be far behind.
