Heat day 1 of 4

^^
Ah. So it comes again. That familiar sensation that had come earlier this year had returned. This time it was expected - she had turned three almost about a month ago now and this is when her first heat had reared its ugly head just last year... that she remembered. It was fuzzy, she had to be honest, but she didn't wake up in these new lands with any ankle biters attached to her hips so she supposed she had gone this far enough getting knocked up.

But how much longer would that go?

The way she sauntered about, leaving her mark upon the land to let any man know she was ready to receive - how long would it take for her to accept some guy into fathering her children? Frankly, there were none that came to mind that she would like... and it was very possible that she would go another year with no pregnancy to bring new life to this wretched pace, and that was okay.

But a woman's needs pushed her on. Trying to leave a trail of breadcrumbs through the blossoming fields to see if anyone worthy would come by. It didn't mean she would fuck the first guy that came by, but maybe... just maybe it would draw someone worth her time and effort. If not, well, she could always bite their balls off.

Ghidorah makes his way back down from the Tundra. He’d spend a few days there, met a small, cute woman that he’d wanted to rip teeth into just for the fun of it. He didn’t though, surprisingly enough. No, he’d had his fun and began making his way back to his current home. He makes it through the thick blankets of snow covering most of the tundra — he passes through it with ease. The bite of the cold doesn’t bother him, his fur is thick enough to withstand it tenfold, and his strength allows him to easily traverse the land.

Now, he comes across a king he’s passed by before, of course only because it lies just beside his mortal standing. A wide valley ripe with rich violet flowers meets his eyes in the distance — an easy landmark for location his pack lands. He moves towards it, taking that first step into the cold earth and crushing those pretty flowers beneath a meaty paw. He finds satisfaction in killing beauty, he doesn’t know why.

Though, not only does the beautiful sight meet his eyes another sweet scent does too. Similar to the one he followed up north, but somehow personalized to the individual as many scents are. The god turned mortal hums low in his throat and rasps a dark, forked tongue over whiskered lips. He doesn’t even think about it, he’s inhaling further and following the scent eagerly.

It brings him to someone of course. The wolf that meets his eyes is draped in powerful reds, her pelt sticks out like a sore thumb beyond the violet and deep green of nature. There’s no sneaking up on her, they’re in a valley, she’d surely see him. So he prowls forth languidly — unrushed — massive head level with wide, bulky shoulders. Multicolored orbs are locked on her athletic build, not too horribly bulky, but still thin and agile.

Ghidorah gives off an aura of curiosity, but no matter how much he tries to look innocent, his appearance prevents him from doing so. It’s probably because he’s not innocent one bit, he’s a horrible man who desires blood and souls whenever he can get them, but this time he wants something else. His desirable question would be obviously he tries to meet eyes, but he’s otherwise silent. A ghost of a smile tilts his lips upwards slightly, but just as his appearance usually does, it makes him seem more malicious than sweet.

Don't take her personally she's a bitch and refuses like everyone who approaches LMAO

^^
She didn't expect much this time around as well. Despite the burning in her body demanding to create new life, she wasn't about to bend over for just about anyone. This was her life after all and she wasn't about to even waste an ounce of her energy incubating trash goblins who won't be worth her time raising later.

But a part of her did enjoy the little flowers that surrounded her. Maybe there was a little bit of romance in the air as her nostrils filled with their perfume as she strode through them with powerful slender legs. On the perfumed breeze, she smelled someone else too... a man, who must have been summoned by her trail.

She'd turn to catch sight of the man and her face fell... “I don't think so buddy.” With a curled lip she was quick to refuse his silent approach. At least he didn't come up to her with some shitty one-liner like that other guy did last season that came and went, so maybe he would get the hint quickly and turn around instead of trying to talk her into it. To change her mind... which was a task that was mostly impossible by most and extremely difficult by few.

He was a rather strong-looking fellow she had to admit.. but there was something about his appearances that turned her off. Something strange like he wasn't a regular wolf by any means... why did she always seem to attract the freaks?

Starting at 20 HP. Rolled a 5!
G HP: 20
T HP: 15


Oh she sees him alright, but judging by her looks she doesn’t like what she sees. Which, he doesn’t know how she doesn’t. He’s god damn handsome and strong. What else could a woman want? How dare she deny him. He even has scars that show his prowess in battle, so what’s the deal? His stripes? His extravagant pelt? Those should be intimidating and striking to the eye, not disgusting as she seems to make it.

Her words are more evidence that she’s not into him, which is reasonable, a lady can have a type. Maybe he’s just not hers, but Ghidorah has a hard time being denied the things he wants. She just so happens to be the newest addition to that list. Only because he’s a disgusting man of course. And this disgusting man only wants one thing.

So his brow raises with interest. Oh? So if she doesn’t want him like that maybe she’d want him in a different way.

“Well, I do think so.” He’s humming, a growl laced into it at the end.

With that, he lunges, looking to sink his teeth into her face or neck. He wouldn’t be looking to latch into her, he’d be looking to slash, maybe blind her with her own blood.

Roll (1): 6 | Thalia HP: 15/20 | Ghidorah HP: 14/20

^^
So he was not the type to take rejection well at all. The last whined and tried to talk her into it, and this one well... he wanted to fight about it. And a fight he would definitely get. Thalia was hornet's nest with teeth and lungs, lashing out and anyone who dared to oppose her no matter their fucking physical size or ego that matched.

She had fought before, men, men just as large as this one and despite her size she had more than just a thorn in her side fueling those snapping teeth, she had a goddamn rose bush that spurred her on at any given moment. Just because this guy had a tantrum didn't mean she would roll over and let him have his way. No sir.

She'd show him just how unworthy he is. He lunged forward to slash his teeth across her face, gashes that were not quite shallow bled and stained her eyes but not enough to blind completely... no. What she saw was red and the moving shape she could tell enough details which end of him was where, that was all she needed to thrash about with gnashing teeth of her own. She saw those glimmering bits on him, those metallic hoops that shone in the dim light of the rising sun and would aim for those... rip of bits and pieces of him through those piercings.

Rolled a 6
G HP: 14
T HP: 9


She doesn’t say no to a fight and that alone excites him. She’s fiery, just like her pelt — fierce too. Ghidorah’s hardly mad at this point, he loves a good fight too. A fight, a fuck, he doesn’t care, they’re both fun and give him a rush. They both give him the same amount of satisfaction.

So when he lunges and slashed teeth across her face, he hits his mark and her blood does seep into her eyes. It doesn’t completely blind her though, so she too lunges at him. She shreds his right ear, ripping one of his piercings out and it begins bleeding profusely, as ears do. Spewing all over the two of them in the heat of their battle and thrashing movements.

He growls, the sound more of a hum low in his throat as he takes her hit. His lips pull back and he strikes, slinking low to attempt to snatch up her arm and give it a little shake. The less she’s able to move, the better she is.

She grabbed onto something! Teeth sank in and hooked onto the glimmering bits of whatever they were and she thrashed her head sharply to the side to tear it off. A part of her was delighted by a thought. A small victory but man did it feel good and lit a fire in her belly. Unlike this man there was only one thought in her head, and that was to win and river dance on this guy's bleeding body on the snow.

Her smaller body was nimble and quick in comparison to his lumbering body. While his bites would certainly hurt should they get a full blow, she was able to slip around him. Except he got her leg and she growled in response. This time to save her leg from any damage as he shook around she let her body move with his motions all the while reaching out with her own jagged fangs to bite into his muzzle where the bridge met his eyes. If she could get a tooth in his eye or both then she would be victorious!

Shit she wouldn't be opposed to eating one or both of his eyes as well... maybe let him live as long as he can without any eyes to see that stupid reflection of his. The thought alone brought a grinning snarl to her face as she struggled to keep moving with him through agile rear feet and the other paw slashing and clawing at his face and ears.

G is out of the fight!


This woman is indeed a spitfire, but he knows the second he sees a blur out of the corner of his eye that she’s coming for his face. He doesn’t have enough time to move — she strikes fast like a snake. Her teeth slice open his face and one even scratches over his brow and eye. He doesn’t know if it punctures, but it definitely does something and that’s never a good sign. Meanwhile, she even brings a paw up to scratch and kick at him too.

A wild one she is.

He growls and snarls when her tooth nicks his eye and rips his face back from her jaws. This only causes more damage as her teeth rake over his muzzle once more. He’d have no fur left on his face at the rate he’s fighting people. Still, with his left eye squinting shit and lips pulled back in a malicious snarl he backs up and rumbles out another string of growls before turning on his heels.

The mortal body is so frail and weak, especially without his armor of scales to protect him and his lightning to command. He has to leave it be or risk getting blinded. So he runs for the hills — quite literally — and makes for Northfall.

She wouldn't be without her own wounds to lick after this but at least she would walk away from this (with a little limp on that leg he took) victorious as all the other times before this as well. Would she ever learn to be kinder to the next guy who approached? Possibly not. Not until they all recognized her as the spitfire she was and stopped testing her patience and temper with their own. If they couldn't handle her fire then they shouldn't be playing with it, it was as simple as that after all. 

This man knew when the fire grew too hot and cut his losses where it counted. Letting go of her arm and running off to live another day. Well, she had to give him that at least, he was smart enough to not go down swinging while she foamed angrily at the mouth, barely able to see his fleeting form disappearing from her blurred sight. She couldn't pursue him with the blood in her eyes and instead would have to start clearing her sight and tending to the wounds he opened up on her skin.

She only had a few days to go and the rest of today would be a waste... and tomorrow too as she nursed herself back to health.
