Date Under The Full Moon

Hello, hello, I bring you the second part to what I have now dubbed the Janus and His Werewolf Boyfriend series! For those not in the know, this is an addition to my story for Anxceit Week last year, One's Hometown, One's New Home. I recommend reading that one first but you can read this as a standalone if you'd like.

You can read this story here on Ao3 and here's my writing masterpost.

Summary: It's the first full moon since Janus and Virgil started to go out with each other and Janus accompanies Virgil out into the woods to satisfy his wolf instincts.

Content Warnings: Virgil transform into a wolf. That's it 🤭

~~*~~

Janus followed Virgil deeper into the woods. His boyfriend was more tense than he’d expected, so deep into territory he should feel more comfortable in. But from what he’s been told so far, Virgil’s instincts are driven into high gear by the full moon above them. He was just wary of wild animals and such. Janus had no such fears.

For all intents and purposes, he should be. Growing up here, he’d been told to be very careful in the woods at night. They rarely had any truly dangerous wildlife so close to town, but the occasional bear or wolf wasn’t unheard off. But for some reason, Janus felt safe in that moment.

He squeezed Virgil’s hand that he was holding on to and his boyfriend’s shoulders relaxed just a smidge as he squeezed back. They continued on in silence. Virgil had a destination in mind, his marked territory to be exact. Marked how, Janus didn’t want to ask or know.

They’d walked for about forty minutes when Virgil finally led Janus out onto a small clearing and let go of his hand.

“Okay, this is it,” Virgil mumbled, shoulder’s hunched in a way Janus already knew meant he was embarrassed about his wolf mannerisms. “I didn’t pick up on any threats on the way here and everything smells the same as yesterday, so it should be safe. Still, maybe stick close to the tree line in case anything does come and you need to get away or hide.”

Janus hummed as he looked around.

“I’m sure it will be fine. You won’t be too far, right?” Virgil nodded his head, a slight blush tinting his cheeks, illuminated by the moon shining down on them in its full glory. “And I know what to do when I happen across a wild animal, it was drilled into us in school. Plus, I brought a nice, sharp, big knife from my kitchen.” He set down the backpack he’d been carrying and pulled out said knife, showing Virgil just how easily and confidently he handled it. “Though I would prefer to keep it clean.”

“You’ll stay here, right?” Virgil shifted uncomfortably, staring at the metal in Janus’ hands as if he expected him to run off to hunt something.

Janus huffed.

“Yes, dear. I brought a book and flashlight. I’m going to get comfortable and read while you go run the energy off or whatever.” True to his word, Janus pulled out a flashlight. He pointed it to the ground and flipped the switch, showing Virgil that it was indeed working. He set it aside, leaving it lit and then pulled out a bundled up sleeping bag. While it was technically still summer, the temperatures had begun to drop and Janus had always been more susceptible to the cold than others. If he was going to stay in the woods at night for hours, he was going to be cozy while doing so.

Virgil watched him set up his camp. “I do not get how you’re so calm about this. You literally know about werewolves for like three weeks, saw me when I was shifted once and still you’re chill with just staying out here, in the middle of nowhere, just for me, a guy who you only met less than a month ago?”

“A very cute guy. Who is my boyfriend.” Janus stopped fiddling with his set-up and instead walked over to Virgil, who was worrying his bottom lip. Gently, Janus cupped his cheek and smiled encouragingly. Their relationship was still very new and there were a lot of things Virgil seemed insecure about, especially since it was his first time in a committed partnership. The whole werewolf thing was an additional factor, since he previously had spent all his wolf-life with the same pack and had few contacts apart from them.

“Virgil, dear, I trust you,” Janus reaffirmed, stroking his boyfriend’s cheek. “Blame it on the naga senses, but I know you would never hurt me intentionally. And even if I hadn’t that, the one time I’ve met the wolf-you, you were in the most vulnerable position, trapped and injured and yet you did barely more than growl at me. I was directly next to you and you didn’t do anything. Why would now be any different?”

“I don’t know!” Virgil groaned. “You still should be more hesitant about this.” Janus chuckled and pressed a kiss against his forehead.

“Maybe I should. But I’m not. Nothing you can do about it,” he smirked.

“You’re an asshole.”

“One that you invited out here to keep you company. So, get to it, pacify your instincts and go on a run.”

Virgil was bright red from the teasing, but he did take a step back, though still reluctantly. He didn’t like to shift in front of others, even members of his former pack, so he would leave to do so in private. From what he told Janus, afterwards he would have a lot of energy, so instead of coming back immediately, he’d run around for a bit, maybe check the borders of his territory, and then return for Janus’ companionship a little later.

“Fine, fine. I’ll go. Promise to shout when something happens.”

“If anything happens, I will.”

“Good.” With that, Virgil disappeared between the trees and a minute later, a wolf howl echoed around the woods. Janus hummed, satisfied that his boyfriend was finally taking care of his needs.

Speaking of which, Janus started feeling the need for extra warmth, so he climbed into his sleeping bag which he had left on a picknick blanket. Then he pulled a nice, plush blanket around the bag and a pillow between his back and the tree he was leaning against. Lastly, he took his thermos filled with tea and took a sip, closing his eyes at the warmth spreading through his mouth.

Yes, he was very comfortable like this.

Setting the tea aside, he instead picked up his book and the flashlight and started reading.

~~*~~

He continued like that for about an hour, reading calmly and sipping his tea, until some shuffling in the bushes on the other side of the clearing had him look up. Even with the full moon above, it was impossible for him to make out anything though, so he carefully let the light of his flashlight wander across the ground and to the area the noise had come from. Eventually the cone of light hit two furry, black legs and Janus lifted the flashlight only a tiny bit more, trying to avoid shining the light directly into the animal’s eyes.

“Hello, dear,” he smiled as he recognized Virgil’s wolf form. “Enough running for now?”

The wolf slowly crossed the distance between them. Janus didn’t move, smiling at him softly and keeping the light on him but away from his face. He wasn’t sure why Virgil was so hesitant to approach. Maybe he was still afraid of scaring Janus, so he stayed relaxed and still and let him take his time.

Finally, he came to a stop in front of Janus, who slowly raised his hand to touch his muzzle and Virgil immediately leaned into it, accompanied by him letting out a huff that Janus could interpret to be a content sigh. The wolf took one more step forward before laying down with his head in Janus’ lap.

“Oh, I see. You brought me all the way here to give you scratches, didn’t you?” he teased. Again, the wolf-Virgil let out a huff, this time probably more out of exasperation. Janus chuckled. “I don’t mind one bit, of course. You’re nice and warm, too.” He let his hands wander around Virgil’s head, trying a few different places to scratch and Virgil made a sound that could almost be a purr. A werecat might have been a better fit for him actually, now that Janus’ thought about it, but this was pleasant for him as well. He leaned heavier into the tree behind him and committed to cuddling his boyfriend for a while.

It didn’t take too long for Virgil to get restless, though. Not even twenty minutes in, he started wiggling uncomfortably before standing up entirely. Janus expected him to go run off again and reached for his book, but instead Virgil whined, staring at him pointedly. Janus tilted his head, unsure of what he was trying to communicate. A huff, annoyed this time, left Virgil’s nose before he used it to nudge Janus’ side.

“Oh,” he said quietly. “You want me to come along.” Another nudge which he took as a yes. “I guess I can comply. But not too long, and after I’m going home. I’m getting cold.” Virgil didn’t argue – how would he, he couldn’t speak – so Janus left his cocoon. He put the book back into the backpack, secured the flashlight with a strap around his wrist, took the kitchen knife into his other hand and lastly secured the blanket around his shoulders.

“Half an hour maximum. Then I want to be back here, pack my things, and leave, alright?” Virgil simply stared at him with his big, brown eyes. Well, just to be sure, Janus took out his compass. Not that he’d think that Virgil would deliberately go against his wishes, but with an excited wolf you never know.

“Go on then, let’s take a walk.” He said it in a way one would speak to a dog, and Virgil let out another annoyed huff before leading the way into the woods. Janus followed close behind him, keeping an eye on his compass all the while. Most of the way, Virgil trotted alongside him, but occasionally he would run ahead to smell something or chase after some rustling in the leaves. It was a quiet companionship that Janus could appreciate. Especially since he knew it was a side of Virgil he wouldn’t easily show to others.

It felt special.

A level of trust he hadn’t experienced with no one but his family and the warm feeling almost chased away the cold.

Almost.

“Virgil, darling, I’m seriously getting cold. Let’s head back, alright?”

The wolf whined, staring at Janus with pleading eyes, but Janus was starting to shiver, so he held firm.

“You can stay longer if you want, but I do not want to catch a cold. And I do get them quicker than others.”

Virgil stared off longingly deeper into the woods for a moment but he did ultimately turn around and lead them back in the direction of the clearing where they left Janus’ belongings.

“Thank you, dear.”

~~*~~

By the time they made it back, Janus had put away the compass and moved the flashlight to the same hand as his knife so he could pull the blanket closer around himself. He hurried towards his small camp to take a long drink of his, thankfully, still quite warm tea.

“Ah, that makes me feel better.”

“You really can’t handle the cold, huh?”

Janus turned around, surprised to hear Virgil’s voice. The werewolf seemed to have taken the chance when Janus was distracted by his drink to shift back.

“No, it was always my greatest weakness,” he lamented. “Another thing my grandma linked to our naga bloodline, though I am the most extreme case in generations.”

“I guess once it gets colder, you won’t be willing to accompany me like this then.”

Janus could hear the disappointment in Virgil’s voice, but it was an accurate guess.

“Well, not for this long maybe but I can be persuaded to accompany for a walk like this again. Provided I have proper protections from the cold.”

“That feels like you’re trying to get me to buy you stuff,” Virgil said, narrowing his eyes at him.

“Me? Never!”

They both laughed before Janus started shivering again.

“Let me help you pack and then I’ll take you home.”

“My, what a gentleman!” Janus teased and Virgil elbowed him rather strongly.

“Just shut up,” he grumbled. But Janus could see the tips of his ears turn red and he smiled.

“If you want to, you can stay over at my place. The living room is big enough for your wolf-form and I don’t mind sleeping on the floor for one night.”

Virgil’s head whipped up to look at him from where he was kneeling on the floor, rolling Janus’ sleeping bag back up for him.

“Really?”

“Yes. From what you told me, this amount of shifting can hardly have been enough. And sleeping together like that might make you less anxious since I am technically a part of your pack, right? As you ‘mate’?” He said the last word teasingly and Virgil’s face went bright red again.

“Stop teasing me!” he hissed, burying his face in his hands.

“Never, darling. But I will pause for now. I ask with an honest desire to help you feel as comfortable as possible. Would you like us to do that?”

“…yes.” Virgil’s answer was quiet but audible and Janus leaned down to press a kiss into his hair.

“Then let’s do that.”

Together they packed Janus’ things and then left back the way they came, hand in hand.

Back home.

Guess whose got! More spicy anxceit! Naga 18+ addition!

Uncensored Discord Link: 💜Here💛

So. a lil Context under the cut explaining some of the pictured rope-work bc i’m just now realizing it probably looks v unsafe compared to what i had actually imagined it being, but also where i’ll put the link for the fic this inspired once i’ve finished writing it and posted it💜

So, first and foremost, i wanna clear it up that the intended** shibari/rope play displayed is not meant to be choking Janus out the way that it looks, the rope in Virgil’s hands is seperate from the robe tied around Jan’s body and neck. The intended affect is simply to keep Janus’s chin tilted up and pinned and theres no active choking going on, just careful restraint of the head.

**please do not think what i’ve drawn is realistic rope play bc i didn’t exactly use references at first bc this was meant to be a sketch that i just ended up getting really into finishing, in fighting w/ their anatomy i hadnt realized i really didnt know exactly how shibari works and didnt wanna ruin it by reworking the lineart after getting so close to finished Dx**

Fic link(fic in progress)

Bonus x2: Jan’s got no dicks bc he’s an egg-laying naga and has a womb specifically for carrying and incubating eggs till they’re almost ready to hatch. Bc trans rights. And also bc i’m always going to project onto jan like this. 👏He👏deserves👏to👏be👏bred👏too!👏

(But yes. Virgil succeeds in filling Jan up w/ plenty of eggs, and Janus succeeds in being very grumpy yet very pleased abt it)

Alexander: I have work jan, I can't cuddle you all day

Janus: you can and you should, in fact, I'm sure if you were 'held up'. You wouldn't need to go into work

Alexander: if I let you bend me over the table while I'm on the phone, will you behave?

Janus: *grins* absolutely not.

golden eyes

please sir,,,,, loceit with naga janus,,,, perhaps with,,,, with janus having hypnotic eyes? 👁👁👉👈

Hmmm, what about Janus with whoever but he like, fills them with eggs and they give birth or something

FTM Logan, Oviposition, egg laying.

Warnings, More female terms describing a trans male's body, hypnosis, Oviposition, egg laying, and spelling errors.

There are many benefits to dating a a naga.

Logan having grown up touch starved was now surrounded, quite literally at times, by his cold blooded lover. Janus kept Logan tucked away safely in his coils his own little human space heater. Logan enjoyed reading out loud while Janus' head laid over his chest. A hand running over the scales on the left side of Janus' face.

Janus lifted his head and Logan lowered his book so he could press a kiss to Janus' forehead. "You're relaxed." Janus commented.

"You relax me." Logan stated.

"I have something I've been wanting to ask you about." Janus said.

"Alright." Logan said putting the book aside.

"As you know, once a year Naga have a breeding season, and we lay eggs inside our mates." Janus said. Logan had a good idea where this was going and took a deep breath.

"Are you asking me if I'll be your mate for that?" He asked, more than willing to let Janus use him for that.

"You would only have to carry the eggs for a weak before laying them." Janus said quickly. "I promise I'll dote on you the whole time, and-" Janus stopped as Logan put a hand on his cheek.

"I would love for you to fill me with your clutch." Logan said softly staring into Janus' eyes. Janus smiled at him with pure admiration.

"I'll tell you when it's time." Janus said nuzzling into Logan's hand. Logan leaned down to give Janus a kiss. Ignoring the excitement that come with the promise.

---

Logan was fascinated by the small hard bump that was forming in Janus' tail just above where his genitals were, small on Janus but knowing that it was a pouch of soft shelled eggs that Janus would be laying in Logan's womb was something that the human liked the idea of more than he thought he would. It didn't help that Janus had been infecting him with small amount of his venom daily to get his body prepared for carrying the eggs. A side effect of that being an increased libido, something Janus was more than happy to take care of with his fingers or mouth but it didn't satiate the growing feeling of emptiness in him that needed to be filled.

So when Janus gently woke up Logan from a more than frustrating wet dream with a soft mutter about it being time, Logan pulled him into a deep kiss more than ready for the next step. It took Janus pulling back and having him look in his eyes for him to settle. "Focus on me, that's it. nice and calm for me."

Logan stopped grabbing at Janus' shoulders as he stared into his golden eyes. "I...I want.. I need!" He gasped out, quickly hushed by Janus as he carefully settled Logan down on his back, spreading his legs and sliding between them. Logan tried to wrap his legs around Janus' tail to get him closer jerking his hips with a whine. Eyes fluttering closed for a second before Janus put a hand on his cheek making him reopen them.

"Relax." Janus hissed again, smiling as Logan's legs spasmed before settling. "Good boy. It feels so nice to just focus and relax doesn't it?" Janus said hands lightly trailing down Logan's chest. Rubbing over his soft chubby stomach that would make the prefect place for Janus' eggs to be protected while they hardened. HIs smile widened as Logan made a soft moan, his half closed eyes staring into Janus'. Thumbs rubbing over the soft pink stretch lines he was about to make more of.

Janus stared into Logan's brown eyes, watching them widen and his breath hitch as Janus' fingers slip down to trace Logan's entrance. Warm, and Slick and twitching at the slightest touch. Janus slid two fingers in easily hissing in approval as Logan squeezed around them and wiggled to get them in deeper. "Hurry!" Logan huffed annoyed by Janus' slow pace. Janus could agree with the feeling, he wanted to bury his cocks in Logan right away and pound into him with no hesitation. But his little human was much too fragile for such treatment. Also far too reckless with his own health when it come to Janus.

Still, Janus withdrew his fingers and rubbed his cocks up against Logan's slick folds, breaking eye contact to lean down and press his lips to Logan's. Logan released from Janus' gaze reached down to grab one of Janus' cocks and stroke it once before lining it up with his hole. Janus jerked forward before he could stop himself and they both moaned as Janus sunk in. Logan smirked at Janus as he took a steadying breath. "Minx." Janus hissed as Logan clinched around him making holding still that much harder.

"I've been waiting for this. Please just get on with it." Logan said firmly, his breath hitching a second later as Janus started thrusting his resolve breaking and his need to fill his mate overrode everything else.

Janus' hands gripped Logan's hips holding him tight enough to bruise slightly as he pulled out just enough to get the tip of his second cock line up. He managed to slowly slid back in instead of slamming inside. Watching Logan's face for any sign of pain, but the human looked blissed out and relieved to finally be full after the last week.

The end of Janus' tail curled up against Logan's side as he started thrusting into the soft tight warmth that made the pouch in his stomach ease lower, settling into place to be laid in his smaller, very willing, mate. Logan was very vocal about his pleasure, moans for more and harder.

"I'll make you feel so good. You're so tight around me, perfect little carrier. Look so good heavy with my eggs." Janus hissed thrusts getting rougher as he chased his release. Janus bite Logan's shoulder injecting more venom into him, causing him to cum. His walls tightening around Janus as his cervix relaxed enough for Janus to press up against it for a long second before slipping inside. Soft shelled eggs sliding through Janus' cocks and settling in Logan's womb.

Logan shuddered at the feeling of the first one, a heavy strangeness that grew the more eggs joined the first. Janus held Logan to him, hissing in bliss as he filled his mate. Feeling his pouch empty and Logan's stomach get firmer under him. Ready to carry his young for the duration of the hardening process of the shells, absorbing some of Logan's matching genetics.

"So good for me. Taking them so well. Good little mate. Ssso lovely." Janus nuzzled his face into the side of Logan's neck. Logan had expected the feeling of being filled with eggs to be strange at the least. He didn't expect just how good it would feel, the stretch and fullness of a place he hadn't thought of empty before now would be something to examine later, for now he would just enjoy the pleasure and closeness he had with his Naga lover.

As the last egg settled into Logan, Janus resumed thrusting, gently as to not disturb the eggs but strong enough to have Logan panting and shaking as he was pushed to cum again. Thick warm cum shot from Janus' cocks to fill in around the eggs. He pulled out as Logan tried to catch his breath.

The human looked down at his stomach that was swollen with eggs, he would be even bigger by the end of the week and would surely need help moving around. Well, as much as Janus would let him, he planned on coddling his mate for the rest of the month. After laying the eggs Logan's body would need time to recover.

---

There are many benefits to dating a Naga, one of them being a very long tongue that said Naga has no issue using to bring his lover to multiple orgasms. Janus' hands were on Logan's shaking thighs keeping them open for him to lick stripes up his slick folds and suck on his clit. The taste of his mate in ecstacy being one of Janus' favorite flavors. He loved hearing Logan's words get breathless as he pull orgasm after orgasm out of him. It made him feel every better seeing one of Logan's hands rub over his egg filled stomach.

There were many times throughout the week that Janus had eaten Logan out or fingered him till he was a sweaty, shaky, blissed out mess. Carefully cleaning the human up and feeding him as he showered praise on to him. Logan really was doing a splendid job carrying his clutch. The way his stomach grew a bit every day and Logan reacted with excitement and adoration for Janus made the Naga incredibly proud of his smaller mate.

As Janus' tongue pressed up against Logan's inner walls, he nibbled softly on his lips. Injecting small amounts of venom into his mate to ease any pain and discomfort he would feel when the eggs needed to be push out. Logan had mentioned having cramps that were quickly getting closer together. Janus had expected to have to calm his human's fear and nerves, instead he had to spend a whole half hour letting Logan stare into his eyes to convince him to take it carefully.

Reckless soft thing.

Janus felt Logan's cervix opening with the tip of his tongue, he withdrew, moving so he could stare Logan into the eyes as the human made a distressed, pained noise. "It's a bit... uncomfortable." Logan said with a strained smile, trying to ease Janus' worry.

"It won't for much longer." Janus hissed watching Logan's face relax as he got drawn into Janus' gaze. "In fact, everytime it cramps it'll feel so good for you. The pain will be so nice, feeling rewarding for doing such a good job."

Logan gaspped as his muscles contracted and the first egg pushed it's way down out of his womb. His walls clinching around it and the egg seemed to press up against everything in the right way. It slid out into Janus' waiting hand to be set in the curl of the end of his tail. "Good job. Doing so lovely." Janus hissed eye contact never breaking, never blinking. One hand rubbing Logan's stomach and he could feel the eggs shift into place to slid out.

Logan shook and cursed under his breath as he continued to push eggs out. Janus' gaze only able to numb some of the pain. He was quickly getting exhausted and by the last two he was ready to just sleep. "Almost done. You're doing so well."

"Then sleep?" Logan asked looking so tired.

"Then sleep." Janus promised watching his human gather the strength to push again. Thankfully both eggs left without a problem, Janus moving them to the pile that he curled the end of his tail around and over to keep warm. Janus leaned down to kiss Logan's forehead and grimaced as the human whined. Logan would be sore for awhile and there wasn't anything Janus could do about it. Just as the Naga started thinking about forbidding his human mate from doing this again Logan spoke up. "Shame we have to wait till next year to do this again."

"You reckless minx." Janus said looked down at Logan's smirking face. Hair plastered to his forehead from sweat and tired eyes gleaming with mischievous energy. "I love you."

"I love you too. Now clean me up and let me sleep." Logan demanded making Janus laugh a bit before nuzzling his neck.

There are many benefits to dating a Naga, but there are also many to dating a human too.

Last of their kind

Summary: what it's like to be the last of your kind

Word count: 799

Characters: naga!Janus

Trigger warnings: dead, implied death, and a corpse (not described in detail)

Notes: this is inspired by a rp i have with @lost-in-thought-20

----------

It wasn’t easy being the last of your kind. A few stages were involved, each more miserable than the next, and each making you feel more isolated.

The first stage started with hope. The hope that maybe, just maybe, you weren’t alone. That there were others who knew what it was like to be just like you. Who shared some of the same struggles, and whose existence would bring comfort, if only you could find them. That hope was supposed to keep you from falling into the pit of despair. It would give you the drive to go on a journey in search of people like you.

Unfortunately, this hope was also the road right to that same pit, where one would balance on the ridge until they would inevitably fall in. Because nothing was more gut-wrenching than going on a journey with hope, only to have it crushed when you realize that you truly were the only one.

You could find traces of your kind, from ruins to books to skeletal structures, but none of them helped alleviate the pain. In fact, they made it worse. Knowing they had been right there, right where you were right now, and yet, they were gone. And you were still here.

Janus had long given up on having hope of finding others like him. He’d fallen into the pit and wasn’t planning on getting out. After all, what was the point anyways? This would be a fitting end. The last naga would die alone, surrounded by the memories of his ancestors before him.

The ruins that had once been a village were the last place he’d visited. Surrounded by trees, close to the mountain range, they would have been safe there. There should have been at least some nagas there, but there weren’t. The place was empty and covered in dust. Clearly it had been abandoned for many years. Still, Janus had searched around, looked in every nook and cranny. If he could find something, find anything that could just tell him where they went, it would be alright. But there wasn’t.

He found an egg, though. A naga egg. And maybe it had been foolish to think that anything could still hatch from it after all this time, but Janus had been desperate. This was the last thing he had. So he clung to it, and tried to nurture it. He’d picked a random house in the village, and every night, he would lay in bed, tail curled around the egg. Whispering to it that it would be okay. That it could come out because he was right there to take care of them. That it was safe now.

It stayed like that for weeks, but there was no sign of life from it. Thinking that maybe it struggled to get through the outer shell of the egg, Janus decided to help it. He carefully peeled it open, piece by piece. Still, no movement. He wasn’t ready to accept the truth yet. He couldn’t. So, he would carry the fetus to his bed at night, hoping that if he warmed it up with his body temperature, it might come back to life.

When he finally realized it didn’t, and never would, the devastation set in. He buried the fetus in the backyard, to put them to rest, before starting the mourning stage.

The grief alone had nearly killed him. It had grabbed him by his throat and yanked his heart out of his chest before tearing it to shreds in front of him. His people, gone. Wiped away like they had never been there in the first place, ready to be forgotten. His screams of anguish continuously traveled throughout the forest until his voice was too hoarse to go on.

And that was where he ended up now. Leaning against the bed in his room, unable to move, unable to continue. It was strange to think that the catalyst that led him down this path was one singular book. Had he not been curious, and read about his people, perhaps this wouldn’t have happened. He wouldn’t have known about his people, but he could’ve been happy anyways. He could’ve lived among humans, ones who cared about him, at least. But instead, he’d let this quest of finding other nagas take over his life, and he’d left everyone behind. Perhaps that was for the better, too. Soft skin and serrated scales didn’t mesh well. His torso being that of a human wouldn’t make them accept him more. It would only make him stand out.

He should count himself lucky, for being allowed to die here. After all this time, after all this suffering and sorrow, he would finally find his people.

And he knew they would welcome him with open arms.
