CHIMERA.

     The stranger was greeted with a startled yelp after bumping into the now trembling canine, neither expecting to find anyone else walking their guardian’s manor no doubt. A hushed greeting was offered by the smaller chimera, trying to make peace despite her clear discomfort.

             hands raised, dante took a couple steps back from the source of the noise before he got a good look at her.  he stood silent as she spoke, face blank from all emotion.  suddenly, he furrowed his brows and tried to smile politely through the confusion,    ❛    you could say that. she created me.    ❜

@batnte is the first successful human to animal transmutation she’s ever performed. A few months after she came home from Ishval, she found him half dead in the streets. On a whim, she made the attempt to save his life through chimera-transmutation and one of her favorite creatures: the bat. It succeeded, and Dante became like a son to her. He’s always out and about, eyes turned red to give him a piece of her, and as she saved his life - he’s incredibly loyal to her side. 

She truly loves and cares for him, giving the two of them a mother/son type of relationship. However, Christina doesn’t know what it really means to be a mother, so Dante works hard to fill her heart with as much love as he can. I believe, by the time the promised day has passed, she’ll have learned to love, and accept that she can be loved in return.
