Ursalo sat close and deliberately rested his weight on his hands propped behind him. It served two functions. One; he would not be tempted to reach out and touch. And two; such a casusl position beautifully displayed the definition of his arms and shoulders, the swell of his pecs, the leanness of his stomach, the flexible curve of his back. If Jera was going to stare, might as well give him a visual feast.<br/><br/>"That one is Faimri," Ursalo said as the scarred one swallowed, the meat bulging in his throat as it traveled down, disappearing into the thicker width of his body. The spotted snake wavered close, tongue flickering with jealousy as he was denied both food and attention, "the other is Ibi and he will pout if you do not feed him soon. He throws the most terrible tantrums."<br/><br/>All eleven of Ursalo snakes had names and personalities of their own. They were not incredibly intelligent but they possessed consciousness. Usually they worked as a consensus that aligned with Ursalo's thoughts, but every now and then there was a differing of opinions. It was all agreed though that every single one adored Jera.<br/><br/>Another snake head left the slumbering throng and rose up to regard the elf. This one did not have a distinct mark upon him but his mouth was a slightly different shape, the hinge of his jaw protruding just a little farther so that he seemed to have chubby cheeks and a goofy smile.<br/><br/>"That is Dubnune," Ursalo introduced, "he is the gentlest."<br/><br/>Ibi gave a warning hiss, it was his turn for food, and just as Ursalo said, Dubnune bowed his head in deference and turned away, nestling himself under Ursalo's chin for shelter. Faimri, satisfied, joined Dubnune, his nose tapping the smiling snake's brow like a kiss. Each snake had their favorites and least favorite of the group, but Faimri and Dubnune were inseparable. If one should do something, the other always followed.<br/><br/>"You may call them darlings if you wish. I dont expect you to be able to tell them apart," Ursalo said but with kindness. Others have tried but they very rarely got it right.
