He didnt think he was any taller or wiser or more mature than he had been the day before. He did, however, think that he had progressed a lot since turning up on Dahlia's borders, emaciated and exhausted. He was bigger than he had ever been, his early morning runs making sure that it was pure muscles that had bulked him out. He was certainly much wiser than before- he had made it his personal plight to learn as much as he could. He had learnt to hunt properly, he'd found a teacher to teach him fighting skills, althought he hoped he never had to use them. Skye had taught him the basics at reading and even without her help he was progressing. He'd met Liliana a while ago and she'd taught him a little about riding a horse. And Shawchert had taught him to shape wood with a knife into retty things. He really was making something of himself. He had spent most of his day scouting out areas to the north of Wolfville, close to Oberon's Spring. It had come to the males attention that, with Eclipse being born and Melee and Range wanting their own rooms it had become crowded in the victorian house. He imagined that Gideon was considering moving out as well but he hadnt spoken to his brother properly in a while. But he didnt want to move out and he had decided that he'd build his own cabin nearer the spring. Today had been a clearing mission and Saul had successfully cleared a large space of all grass and other debris that would get in his way. He didnt know the first thing about building a house but he was going to learn, that was for sure. Tired body moved through the highstreet of Wolfville. He was in his optime form again and despite the young mans original distaste for the form he was beginning to see certain advantages. Clearing the way for his cabin today would have been disasterous in lupus form. Green eyes caught a light ahead and a confused expression caught him. It looked like a fire. For a moment a flash of worry crossed him before the scene came into focus. Two figures outlined by a small fire. One dark and one light. He smiled as he approached his brother and sister, taking in the banquet Gideon had prepared. "You put my picnic to shame Gideon!" He said with a soft smile. A kiss was given to his sister cheek, a soft lift to the creamy fur. He noticed the lily in his sisters hair and nodded towards it. Casting his eyes around the small feast he gave a low whistle and looked around. They were the only ones there it appeared, not even Melee and Range were with their father yet. word count;; 493 "speech" "speech" - Ascher Stormbringer - 12-18-2010 [html]

[/html] - Shiloh Dawnbringer - 12-20-2010 [html] Shi gracefully returned Gideon's embrace, and it seemed like he finally took her advice and washed up, by the smell of it. As he pulled away, the young female smiled sincerely, before fixing her hair and re-adjusting the lily behind her ear. It wasn't long before Shiloh's other siblings followed suit, as Saul approached she smiled wide, returning a nuzzle to his affection. Her eyes sparkled, without much need of the firelight, overjoyed that she was reunited with her family again, and they were all celebrating together. The only one who was missing was-- "”Hey everyone!" The greeting rang with familiarity in Shiloh's perfect ears. Turning her head in the direction, she squealed as she saw the last remaining brother return. "Asch!" She said somewhat louder than intended, but she was more than a bit beside herself with glee. She strode up to him (for running was just unlady-like), and wrapped her arms around him in a hug. How he had grown, too! They had all done some growing up, but all of her brothers were significantly taller than she. Not that she minded, really, but on the other hand Shi got the purest and cleaner pelt out of the whole deal. Saul mentioned about food earlier, and only then did it make Shi realize that she was hungry too. Her eyes grazed over the scene that Gideon has set up for the celebration, as she moved to sit on a tree stump by the fire. She had to say that she was impressed, but of course she wouldn't tell him that. Her hands dusted off any loose remnants of the forest on her pelt, fluffing herself up to at least look presentable for the occasion. "I tried to get enough for the four of us and anyone else who chose to join us." Shiloh giggled softly into the smoky, cool night air, looking at each of her brothers in turn. "There's only enough there for you three big carnivores," she said jokingly. Shiloh distinctly remembered her brothers' eating habits, which were anything but cleanly. She wondered for a moment if that was something they had changed, now that they were adults. Shi let her giggles subside and turned to Gideon, who spoke to all of them at once. She smiled when Giddy mentioned her in the planning, but when he mentioned gifts, her eyebrows quirked. The young white female never knew about this, nor had she brought any gifts for her siblings. Well, no matter.. their sister had returned, and that seemed to be as good a gift as any. Shi ran her fingers through her creamy locks again, looking up to see her brother across her with large amounts of food in his claws. She smiled again, and looked to the other two, re-affirming what she had said before. Getting up herself, she gingerly picked off bits of meat, and picked up a stick on the ground (and thoroughly cleaning it) to skewer them. As she sat back down on her stump, she settled the meat stick over the fire. Old habits never change. "Who else will be joining us?" She said as her blue eyes settled on Gideon, hoping for a brief moment that she would be able to see her aunt there. Much to Shiloh's surprise, she was told that Bris was bursting at the furry seams with pups before she arrived, and had given birth to them before Shiloh had graced the pack with her presence. - Saul Stormbringer - 12-21-2010 [html] The heat of the fire hit him in the face and Saul was rebuffed for a moment. It was a pleasent heat once he got over the initial intensity and once his fur had warmed to the right temperature he stepped forward to hold his hands out into the heat, certain he wasnt going to burn. Gideon seemed to have a knack of creating good healthy fires and this one did not disappoint. Saul smiled as his sister nuzzled him back after his short kiss on her cheek. He was glad to have his sister back, even if her unnatural obsession with being clean reminding him forcefully of his morning routine. It appeared the Stormbringers may have developed obsessive personalities- at least in his and his sisters case. Cinnamon ears flicked back as Gideon addressed his earlier comment and Saul grinned at him. "You must have been hunting for weeks to get this together... Well done!" The eldest Stormbringer praised, a smile on his face. He was proud of his brothers and sister and it could not be more obvious as right now. They had had a traumatic start in life- Gideon getting semi-mauled by their grandmother and their own mother being murdered on the same occasion. They had been separated and split each way and yet they had still managed to return and find each other. And what was more- none of them were messed in the head or inherently evil, despite their rocky start to life. And for that the young male was proud. Thoughts were distracted another voice came to him. Head whipped around to see Ascher coming towards them. Both his brother and sister spoke before him and Saul was happy to stay silent for a moment. "Its nice to see you Asch" Saul interjected quietly when Gideon and Shiloh had calmed down. Green eyes watched as Gideon picked up a few lumps of raw meat. He was about to take them from his brother and skewer them when Shiloh picked up a stick and did it instead. He was feeling just a little inadequate at this point but he kept the smile on his lips. He was thinking hard about the presents Gideon said he had for them. If he had practised more of the wood carving Shawchert had taught him, he would perhaps of made his siblings a present too. But he wasnt skilled enough and didnt want to give them unfinished presents. "I would have presents for you all, if I was any good at making them! Im getting there, so bear with me!" He said, once again quiet and calm. He was the eldest yet his brothers and sisters seemed to be growing up all around him. He was meant to take care of them, not the other way round. Saul hadnt quite figured out that it wasnt his job to molly coddle them anymore- he was still under the impression that he had to be there all the time for them. Maybe he would get it one day, but right now he was feeling a little lost. Ascher asked what they had been up to that day and Saul had an answer for this one. "I was out near the spring, clearing an area where I hope to build a cabin soon. Home is beginning to feel a little crowded for me... What about you? I havent seen you about lately!" He asked with a glance back towards the cooking meat. He wondered who else was actually going to turn up, but pushed it from his mind. It didnt matter who turned up, in all honesty. He was here with his family and that was all that mattered. word count;; 617 "speech" "speech" - Ascher Stormbringer - 12-24-2010 [html]

[/html] - Shiloh Dawnbringer - 01-02-2011 [html] The haul that Gideon brought in for the feast was impressive, but Shiloh still smiled to herself when she could only imagine about how much her brothers consumed now. They were all adults, and growing boys that turned to men.. well.. they ate a lot more. Shiloh was glad to see that Gideon, who sat across from her at the fire, still had some manners to eating, and even copied her movement of skewering her meat and cooking it. Sure, they were wolves, but there was no need to be savage about things when you had thumbs and two legs. Secretly, though, she was sure all of her brothers had silently agreed to be on their best behavior when their sister, the princess, was around. Still, she loved their adventurous spirit, or even when they rolled in the mud... as long as she was clean and out of the way. Them preventing her from getting dirty made her love them all the more. 'I think Bris is pretty tired, and I think Conor's with her,' her cream-colored ears heard her brother say. That's right, how could she have forgotten about Bris giving birth? They all lived in the same house together, but Shi felt the house was too crowded indeed, and so she gave her aunt and Conor space. Though she was wanting to see her aunt since her return, Shiloh knew that her puppies were of the utmost importance, and plus Bris needed all that recovery time from being uber pregnant. Shiloh wasn't sure how her aunt did it, or any female for that matter... and plus, all that.. gross stuff that came with birth. The young damsel shivered, not wanting to even think about it now. It would be some time before she'd decide about being motherly. The Dawnbringer female listened to her other brothers mention moving out, or building houses. Her cerulean eyes widened a bit, another realization of them growing up and moving apart. The cream and white colored female didn't want to see them leave, not yet anyways. She'd deal with the crowded house if it meant that she could spend time with her family once again.. they had months to make up, but they all had their own lives to begin building. A small smile crossed her perfectly-white face, the fire glowing against her snow-colored fur. "I'll help only because it's for my dear brother," she said sweetly, then added: "I won't get any splinters, will I?" Shiloh was being sincere, and perhaps her brothers thought it funny that if anything was to endanger her cleanliness, no matter who it was, she probably would watch some the sidelines. Her own food was nice and cooked by now, and she gingerly stuck the skewered meat into her mouth. It was far less messy to do it in that manner than to get the black, charred remains on her delicate fingers. She chewed silently, more engrossed in her thoughts than anything, looking at each of her brothers in turn with blue eyes that sparkled in the firelight. Then she heard Gideon mention a name, one she wasn't familiar with, and one ear flicked in his directions, her cream-colored locks swaying on her head with the movement. "Who is Nayru, Giddy?" A small, somewhat-knowing smile crossed her features, looking at him teasingly. He quickly jumped onto the subject of gifts, though, and wondered if her question would ever be answered about this person. "You know, I don't think you've ever stopped eating to do something else, dear brother. Maybe you've all changed more than I had thought." - Saul Stormbringer - 01-26-2011 [html] His heart felt warm as he looked round at his siblings. He had always maintained the thought that he would go and look for Shiloh once he was settled, but he never seemed to have settled. So when she had turned up at the borders with the scent of their father faint on her fur and the scent of coyote a little bit strong, Saul had been puzzled. But she was back and she was safe and really, that was all that mattered to the boy. Green eyes watched his hunk of meat slowly dripping into its own juices and his stomach worked hard at a long and hearty growl. A chuckle escaped the young boy as he looked at his brothers and sister. They appeared to be getting along great- but then again, after all they'd been through why would they fight. Cinnamon backed ears were distracted by Ascher's enthusiastic response to his mention of building a house. "I'd love your help Asch. I'll give you a call. And both of your help would be good as well." Saul added on the end as his contrasting siblings piped up that they would like to help. Saul offered his little sister a chuckle as she fretted about getting a splinter, but he wondered how serious she actually was. Saul hadn's missed his youngest brothers remark about his trip to Halifax and he made a mental note to question his little brother about it later. But Gideon was speaking once again and Saul gave a soft chortle at his comments about more Stormbringers around the area. There was already the four siblings, plus their aunt and their new cousin. How many more could they get in this pack? Of course, it was big enough for all of them but how many of them would get in before inbreeding started? A shudder ran through his spine as he thought on that for a moment before choosing to answer the dark boy. "How many of us do you reckon there are? And how many do you think Conor would accept into Dahlia?" Saul laughed before moving to take his meat from the stick. It was hot and he had to pass it from hand to hand for a moment before it was just cool enough to handle with one and eat with the other. It was soft as butter and had just enough blood remaining to be classed as food to the wild animal. Saul sank back on his haunches, listening to Ascher ask about their gifts and Gideon speak about moving out to the east. Nayru lived out there, as Gideon mentioned. Saul wondered how long it would be before the two of them officially got together- they were already halfway betrothed anyway, they might as well make it official. Soon he might have actual niece's and nephews running about them place. Of course, Melee and Range were his niece and nephew, but there would always be a bit of them that wasn't Stormbringer. He chuckle softly to himself as Shiloh asked about Nayru. "Getting jealous there Shi?" Saul murmered from his backseat pass in this family gathering. Shiloh spoke again, directing her words towards thier gorging brother. Of course, Saul had had a picnic with his brothers before and knew what a pig the black boy could be. He laugh and threw a bit of raw meat at Gideon's head, hoping it would hit him before the boy caught it. Of course, Shi would be mad if there turned out to be a food fight so Saul ducked his head with a demure smile and held his hands wide to show he had no more food. Lets be civilised here, for once. word count;; 621 "speech" "speech" |
