- Saul Stormbringer - 02-03-2011 [html] ooc;; for anyone! sorry for neglecting my boy! <33 03.02.11 Oberon's Spring The pointed peaks of his roof beams were horribly naked under the glare of the dull day. He had managed, with a little help of course, to build almost all of his house. The wooden slats that made up most of his house were different shades at the moment but with time they would all become dark and weather beaten. It was nice to think that he himself had done this- he'd gathered the wood himself and collected all the nails and screws to keep him abode together. He'd managed to salvage a few similar wooden beams to make his roof. They were, however, completely bare. He hadnt yet figured out what to do on top- whether he should gather more wood and just slat it like he did with the rest of his house. He knew he was beginning to get impatient and irritated in the house he still lived in with his Aunt and her not-quite mate Conor. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 02-10-2011 [html] *rolls over on back* Im sorry for disappearing, forgive meee T_T Siku would not admit to anyone that the town of Wolfville creeped her out, not did she ever plan to express her unease with the strange place. It wasn't that she was afraid or unfamiliar with the relics of the human age, Siku just felt a little less free when she was close to the skeleton like buildings that she suspected were long ago vacated. She preferred the wilderness, where everything old and forgotten was destroyed as the seasons passed. There were few places in Wolfville that Siku was comfortable lingering in, but over all she was happy to have a home she could call hers. Dahlia was so much more than just pieces of a strange civilization left from another time. It was a beautiful land Siku wanted to spend her life in. Exploring seemed to be the she wolf's plan for the day, her curiosity bringing her towards a thick forest she knew harbored a spring of water. It had been a while since Siku had eaten, and she hoped to hunt down a rabbit or something else to satisfy her hunger. Golden eyes on the look out for small game, Siku's small paws soundlessly wove her around and under trees. She moved around the branches of trees delicately, as if their iced over twigs might tear her to shreds should she brush against them. Siku was tired of pulling tiny twigs out of her thick fur all the time. As she moved through the woods, Siku spied a small white rabbit already trying to make an escape. With a loud growl, the white wolf gathered up her momentum and sprang from her crouch into a pursuit she planned would end fairly soon. Siku found herself lagging behind in the chase as she dodged trees and bushes. She growled in frustration, the rabbit almost teasingly kicking up snow as it hopped under and over trees like nothing. 'You little bastard I'm STARVING' Siku cried mentally, dropping all former intentions to stay well groomed as she furiously tore through the fragile trees like they were made of paper. As she predicted, tiny twigs caught in her silky fur as she bounded through the forest like a wolf gone mad, but this time she didn't care in the least. Golden eyes glowing with determination, Siku nearly cried out with delight as she found herself quickly gaining on the rabbit. Strong legs vaulting over a fallen tree, it was Siku's last leap before she would try to get her jaws around the fluffy target. Siku almost lost her prize, but last second desperation and reflex made her dive forward, seemingly delicate paws snatching up the rabbit harsh enough to break its lightest bones and draw it into her chest at the same time. The landing was hard enough to force Siku into a rolling front flip, a grunt escaping her lips as she quickly recovered. After righting herself, Siku cried out with dismay as her mangled rabbit struggled to get away. How was it still alive?! Siku did not have time to fathom this as she once again took off after what turned out to be a challenging snack. Breaking out of the wood into a clearing, Siku continued to follow the poor rabbit instead of finishing it off like she should have. "Oh.. Saul?" Siku found herself in front of a strange frame of a house she concluded to be Saul's, Saul himself not too far off from it. Her rabbit was slightly bloodied and had given up near Saul's feet, clearly realizing it hadn't a chance in hell. Siku grinned widely, glad to see her friend again. As she strode nearer to the younger Dahlian, she became sheepish as she realized how pitiful the rabbit must have looked; outrun to death after being mauled. Siku, still in lupus form, crept forward to place a paw on the rabbit; eliciting a weird sound from it that confirmed the rabbit's tragic end. She tilted her head to the side, glancing up at Saul as she smiled meekly. "Um... this is mine.." Siku giggled, sitting on her back legs to lift it up with one paw and measure its weight. She estimated it to be about 10 pounds, healthy and fully grown, a prize indeed. Glancing up at Saul, she smiled again and placed it on the snow once more. "There's enough for me aaand you.. If you clean and cook it.." Siku winked at Saul, hoping for a 'yes'. Siku had never tried cooked meat before, and the thought of trying it was amusing to the young she-wolf. .siku-t98 .ooc {font-style:italic; font-size:11px; } .siku-t98 p {padding:5px 15px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .siku-t98 b {color:#000000; letter-spacing:0px; font-family:times new roman, times, serif; font-size:14px; } .siku-t98 {background-color:#D1D2D1; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2011feb/siku.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#383838; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:230px 0px 10px 0px; margin:0px auto; } </style>[/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 02-16-2011 [html] ooc;; i'm trying to get my muse back! lovely post btw The fish fascinated the young man as he watched them flit and flirt with each other. Winter was always hard on fish, but that didnt meant they didnt fight back. Supposed to be hibernating, a few smaller fish had worked their way free of winters harsh grip and were frolicking in the cold water. The young Stormbringer gave a little chuckle and moved his legs out from beneath him to sit cross legged on the ground. It was cold on his bum but he didnt have anything to sit on. He needed to figure out what to cover his roof in, but he couldnt get past wood as a base material. Still, that didnt mean there wasnt other forms of roofing around. He just needed to search for it. Stretching his arms above his head, he didnt at first hear the paws against the snow. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 02-19-2011 [html] <3 Sorry this one is shorter! Siku tilted her head to the side in question, waiting for Saul's response. Golden eyes fluttered in surprise as he licked her small black nose, and she immediately responded with an affectionate but shy lick across his cheek. In an instant her expression of energy changed to a look of dismay as he informed her of their lack of means for a fire. However, Siku did not currently have the motivation needed insist on her request, and her mouth was already beginning to salivate as the larger wolf spoke. The rabbit was already becoming colder upon death, blood leaking into the snow and filling her nose with that deliciously warm scent. Siku's round ears flicked back as she glanced up at Saul, and she spoke softly as she let her slim body relax on the soft snow. "I suppose you are right. Some day, though." The white wolf set a paw on the rabbit to hold it still as she tore it open, steam rising from the warm flesh as she eagerly tore a chunk off and swallowed it. Siku delicately stripped pieces of meat away from the rabbit, practically inhaling each morsel of bloody goodness until there was a little over half of the rabbit left. She stopped to lick blood away from her right paw, and then pointed her muzzle in the direction of her bloody gift before nudging it openly to the larger wolf. For some reason Siku found herself eager to be offering something to the wolf, and in a fleeting thought she wished she had waited and caught more before finding him. Again, she nudged the meat to Saul and began to eat the bloody snow around the rabbit. The cold snow and warm meat managed to take the edge off her hunger, and the older yet tiny arctic she-wolf rolled over in the snow to stretch in the sun. Pure white fur appeared almost transparent in the light, Siku's fluffy belly exposed in the crisp and chill air as she growled loudly in content and waited for Saul to enjoy her catch. .siku-t98 .ooc {font-style:italic; font-size:11px; } .siku-t98 p {padding:5px 15px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .siku-t98 b {color:#000000; letter-spacing:0px; font-family:times new roman, times, serif; font-size:14px; } .siku-t98 {background-color:#D1D2D1; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2011feb/siku.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#383838; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:230px 0px 10px 0px; margin:0px auto; } </style>[/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-07-2011 [html] ooc;; oh my gosh i suck so bad! forgive me? The young man had had cooked rabbit before- with Tsukiko. For a moment his heart gave a soft twitch in his chest. Thinking about Tsukiko made him sad and he didnt want to be sad. Siku was here now and she was fun and playful and made fire slash down his body. He wasnt too sure about that feeling yet and chose to try and control it. Still, he couldnt help the soft chuckle that caught him in the throat when she gave that shocked little look and then licked him swiftly across the cheek. It made his lips spill upwards in a wide grin as the moved back slightly. Back paws dug into the snow as he watched a flash of disappointment cross her features. If Gideon were here he might be able to make a fire. Soft face hardened as he made a mental note to seek out his obsidian brother and learn the art from the man himself. Still, the white female spoke and his attention was once more pulled swiftly back to her. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 03-08-2011 [html] I forgive. <3 *glomp* Siku enjoyed feeling the suns weak rays warm her satisfied body, if only slightly. She also enjoyed licking the blood away from her paws slowly, remembering her mediocre chase with the animal that now lay in bones in the snow. Siku especially enjoyed spending time with her closest friend. Still laying on her back, Siku twisted about in a strange way to roll on her stomach and peer at the larger wolf with a meek grin. He was thanking her for sharing her rabbit, though Siku felt it wasn't necessary. Saul had been the one to discover her, and though she had said nothing Siku felt she should always be grateful. Golden eyes glittering in the sunlight, Siku rested her head on her front paws and spoke in a voice that expressed contentment and bliss. "No, thank you! I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you." The white she-wolf's tail swished back and forth as she watched Saul, thoughtful and shy at the same time. She noticed as he cleaned himself of the blood, he seemed to fight the urge to continue grooming himself. Amusement ebbing away timidness, Siku crawled forward on her stomach before rolling around in the snow too. Though Saul had clearly tried his best to clean himself, Siku noticed the slightest smudge of blood along his jawline with a grin. Almost like an attack she bounced on him to do the favor of removing the offending streak of blood, and then bounced away again to inspect the spot meticulously. "Just missed a spot" She sang, giddy and excitable as she smiled at him again. Hearing his question, Siku was tempted to feign not hearing him and change the subject. She honestly didn't mind sleeping outside, especially on warm nights. Though those were often rare at this time. Feeling rude for the lack of response, the white woman sighed loudly and dropped onto her belly again to relax before answering him. It was as if confessing her wild ways would take a toll on the soft hearted wolf, but rather she was just trying to be dramatic as she spoke in a light tone. "I've told you before, Saul." The way his voice rolled off her tongue, Siku felt different when she said it in such a soft voice. Her heart would give a little squeeze to remind her of its presence, that annoying thing. It fluttered as she rolled over onto her back once again, hiding her lovely face in the snow as she now spoke in a harder, casual tone. "I belong outside, where else would I go?" Ochre eyes slid from the handsome male's face to his house, though it was more of a frame in progress at the moment. Siku nudged her nose pointedly in that direction as she laughed at herself. "As if I can just create one like you have." .moonbird-text {padding:0px 10px;} .moonbird {padding:5px 0px; text-indent:25px; margin:0px;} .moonbird b {color:#5c3c77; font-weight:bold;} .moonbird {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background-color:#848488; background-image:url(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8168/souls77.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:fixed; padding:270px 0px 10px 0px; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#3a3a7b; word-spacing:.2px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:.1px; text-align:justify; border:1px solid #000000;} </style> [/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-11-2011 [html] ooc;; congrats on your promotion deary <33 Siku was a peaceful soul to be around, even if they both got a little excited and initiated play more often than not. She was calming and soothing to him and Saul was loathe to not see her. He liked to stick around her and he was glad that she had decided to stay in Dahlia. He had seen more than his fair share of lone wolves attempt to create a home here and give up so easily and leave again. It reminded Saul that Ascher hadnt been seen since before the snow storm and he hoped his youngest brother was okay. He knew he would need to go and find him soon, but the prospect of finishing his house sooner rather than later stilled his search. They were all adults now and Ascher had learnt how to hunt for himself. If he had simply wandered off in search of something more from the world, Saul wouldnt want to drag him back to Dahlia. But the thought of him out there in the freezing snow was something he couldnt shake from his mind. Siku spoke again and it caused a smile to grace the mans lips. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 03-12-2011 [html] Thanks! Siku is one awkward wolf. Sorry for the messiness, I ramble when I'm stoned >< <3 <3 Siku's eyes did not wander as Saul spoke to her, and she smiled shyly as he referred to her as a 'Damsel in distress'. It reminded her of when he had given her the shawl to wear, when he'd found her in the snow bank. The memory made Siku smile wider. Remembering when they were playing like puppies, it made her feel even more shy in front of the larger Dahlian. There was something between them, tension and electricity that Siku couldn't quite understand. It made her want to be around him, all the time. Yet the young woman also felt compelled to run away, and ignore the feelings. It was all so strange to her. She was tempted to nip at him as she licked him, and she could sense he was restraining himself from moving as well. Her golden eyes stared up at him shyly as she pulled away, and Siku tilted her head to the side as he thanked her. I swear, how can someone be so polite?!. It was charming, granted, but made her feel rude in comparison. Siku certainly wasn't rude, and that was what made it weird. Saul was as pure as her fur. Still on her back, Siku's slender maw stayed focused on her companion as she watched him roll over as well. His gorgeous green eyes seemed to take on a new dimension in the sun, and at first Siku simply stared at him mutely. Her own golden eyes glittered as she spoke about his house, her eyes shifting as well as her head to peek at the frame with upside down vision. It didn't seem to bother the pale furred woman, but after a moment of staring at the structure she rolled over to see the world properly again. Saul shrugged lazily, still on his back as he opened his maw to bring up a question Siku had ignored in the past. Golden eyes met green as they stared at each other, the question hanging in the air once again. His handsome face was as serious as she had ever seen him, and the white wolf glanced down with hesitation. His gaze made her heart race. He was asking her to stay with him. It wasn't that Siku didn't want to accept, and she was aware of how rude it was; her delayed response. Her pale face was unusually blank, and as serious as Saul's as she sighed very softly. "I wouldn't wanna be a burden.. but I'm glad you found me, too. More so than you, I'm sure." Siku was nearly whispering, her eyes still averted. "I'm sorry it took me so long to tell you," The female continued on, knowing her words would make the wolf uncertain of her answer. "It was rude of me to ignore you the last time you asked." Siku finally brought her eyes back to Saul, not afraid to look now. She knew what she would say all this time, it was insecurity that confused her. Siku thought he had only felt sorry for her, but much more than pity laid in the eyes she met with a smile. At least, that is what the white she-wolf had come to interpret. It couldn't have been only her that felt so crazy inside when they were together. Of course, Saul could have just been a really, really nice guy. He truly was. As Siku had opened her maw to speak, nothing came out. So much was running through the thoughtful soul's head, so many weird possibilities and questions and urges that made her forget her words. "I don't want to intrude, especially if there's a.. mate involved?" The woman mumbled lamely, knowing it sounded stupid. He was her age, and she certainly never had a love interest before. Siku didn't know though, it could have been different in Dahlia. Maybe he was building his marvelous looking house for his lady. The thought bothered the woman, but she didn't let the thought linger as she laughed. "I'm kidding, you probably don't have one yet. I would love to live with you if it's okay. Siku said this quickly, trying to add it in before he could respond to her previous comment. How smart of me.. Siku thought miserably, feeling more and more shy by the minute. .moonbird-text {padding:0px 10px;} .moonbird {padding:5px 0px; text-indent:25px; margin:0px;} .moonbird b {color:#5c3c77; font-weight:bold;} .moonbird {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background-color:#848488; background-image:url(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8168/souls77.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:fixed; padding:270px 0px 10px 0px; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#3a3a7b; word-spacing:.2px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:.1px; text-align:justify; border:1px solid #000000;} </style> [/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-14-2011 [html] ooc;; no worries sweets! sorry my post doesnt match yours! Silence hung in the air as the two wolves lay on their backs and stared at each other. In the semi-sunlight her golden eyes twinkled and Saul was captured for a moment. Unable to look away he didnt realise that Siku was staring back at him, quite easily with the same expression on her face. The desire to allow his pink tongue to lash out and swip her lips was something so overwhelming he could stop it. Pink tongue darted forward to catch both her nose and her top lip. Of course, they had shared licks before and he could easily pass this off as the same affectionate greeting he had given her when he had seen her with the rabbit trapped beneath her. To him it felt different though and he knew he was standing on very shaky ground right now. Before he had time to analyse this she rolled over onto his stomach, righting her sight. He copied, laying in the snow with the white she-wolf in front of him. She seemed very uncertain of her answer and he remained silent as she mulled it over. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 03-14-2011 [html] Quality not Quantity And you are a very good writer so it's all good. Saul snorted in response to Siku's hesitant question, and immediately there was a tug on her heart. He was, as she first thought, single and asking her to live with him. After she finally said yes, bright eyes carefully studying his, she witnessed an expression of pure joy as the larger wolf leaped forward to playfully tug on her ear. Caught up in the happiness that radiated from Saul, Siku giggled and snapped her teeth loudly in reaction to his nip before crouching to tackle. Bum in the air, she tilted her pale face to the side as he thanked her once again. Always thanking her! "No way, Thank you!" She replied sincerely, the sound a playful growl as he rolled over to paw at her face. Siku didn't end up pouncing to tackle, bum lowering as she laid down in front of the larger Dahlian. He was so.. so.. happy making. Saul made her smile, and feel special. There was no fear or uneasiness when she was with him. Dahlia felt like home, and it was the right place to be when Saul was around. Maybe she would not be travelling outside the borders so much, if she lived with him. Or exploring all over the place like the wanderer she used to be. The thought of not moving around as much didn't bother Siku as much as she thought it would. Her eyes strayed to Saul's house; it would be awhile before anyone would inhabit that structure. Siku looked forward to being rooted to one spot though, it would give her a chance to become integrated into the pack properly. She knew.. no one, really. Saul. Conor. Nayru. And she know of a few of the wolves. That was it. She would definitely become better acquainted in the future. Surely she wasn't the only one drawn to the sweet heart laying beside her. Siku stared into Saul's green eyes for a moment, thoughtful and timid. Without thinking too much of it, she leaned forward to return his previous kiss with a sweet hesitation at the last second. Adrenaline coursed through her veins as she laughed and turned her face away quickly. It was unchartered territory for the both of them, Siku suspected. Then she nipped his cheek playfully to follow the bold (for her) move, laying down on her stomach to watch him with a shy grin that was hidden beneath a paw. .moonbird-text {padding:0px 10px;} .moonbird {padding:5px 0px; text-indent:25px; margin:0px;} .moonbird b {color:#5c3c77; font-weight:bold;} .moonbird {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background-color:#848488; background-image:url(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8168/souls77.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:fixed; padding:270px 0px 10px 0px; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#3a3a7b; word-spacing:.2px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:.1px; text-align:justify; border:1px solid #000000;} </style> [/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-17-2011 [html] ooc;; <33 There, it was done. He had a room mate and he really liked the female who had accepted him in his offer of a place to stay. She might be perfectly content with sleeping outside in the open air but Saul wasnt so happy about it. She might catch a cold and die from hypothermia or some other illness he did not yet know the name of. It was a disaster out there for most of them and the inside was mostly kind of safe. Of course, Saul's usually logical mind completely missed the part where wolves lived in the wild for thousands of years before they grew up on two legs and ruled the world. They were hardy and sturdy animals and there was really no need to live in houses. But it was something that humanisation had brought with them- the need to be civilised and perceived as such. One of the was they did this was living in houses and dressing in human clothes. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 03-17-2011 [html] <3 <3 A loud, girlish laugh escaped Siku's slender maw as she rolled over onto her back, joining him. Saul was warning her about his lack of furniture? Like she would possibly rethink her commitment because of this. 'Such materialistic wolves, these Easterners!' Siku's golden eyes could see right through Saul's though, and she traced genuine worry as well as hope. "You really think I care about what's inside?" Siku grinned at the male, both wolves still on their back. With her thick white paws tucked into her chest in a puppy like fashion, the girl looked so young in comparison to the larger wolf. "I have never slept in a house before, I have no expectations. Silly." Siku nipped at Saul's shoulder, as if that would make him realize she meant it. The pale faced Dahlian simply laid there for a moment, staring over at her companion. Whenever their eyes met, Siku would get this flutter in her chest. It made her want to look away, or stare for a little longer- at the same time. He always made her feel that way, conflicted between actions. Siku was only a little aware of this, and only enough to make the situation even more confusing. 'I suppose this is what they call a 'crush',' Siku thought silently to herself, her face giving nothing away as she smiled innocently at Saul. 'How come, I wonder? I don't feel crushed, I feel like ..' A look of uncertainty crossed her face as she thought about it for a moment. Really thought about it. Even questioning her emotions, she could not answer herself. Everything was so new. Realizing how quiet she had become, Siku rolled over onto her stomach. Saul was still on his back, and the white woman inched forward to nuzzle his neck, only slightly hesitant. It was becoming normal to express her affection for the kind hearted wolf. "I would live with you, even if all you had to offer was a burrow in the ground." Siku murmured, her soft voice even softer beside his ear. "That's what we wolves used to do, you know." She added teasingly, nipping at Saul's ear. It was true, both statements. The white Dahlian would live anywhere the green eyed wolf asked her to. She could hardly believe that he asked her in the first place, and the fact that he was worried about not having furniture made her laugh again. "But don't worry, our new house will be even better. With or without things inside, It doesn't matter." Siku glanced up at Saul shyly. "As long as you're there." .moonbird-text {padding:0px 10px;} .moonbird {padding:5px 0px; text-indent:25px; margin:0px;} .moonbird b {color:#5c3c77; font-weight:bold;} .moonbird {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background-color:#848488; background-image:url(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8168/souls77.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:fixed; padding:270px 0px 10px 0px; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#3a3a7b; word-spacing:.2px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:.1px; text-align:justify; border:1px solid #000000;} </style> [/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-18-2011 [html] ooc;; <33 He was really going to have to talk to Conor about his heart. The young Stormbringer male was beginning to really worry about it- it was flipping and squeezing all over the place and he wasnt sure that was healthy. For example, as cinnamon backed ears cupped forward to catch her delicate and golden laugh his heart seemed to summersault in his chest. Now that wasnt normal. Trying to calm himself he watched as she rolled over onto her back, exposing her pink stomach to the world and to him. This was getting ridiculous. With her golden eyes and her long lashes batting at him the young male couldnt think straight and he was getting seriously worried that he'd caught some kind of illness that affected his heart. It was out of control and he didnt know what to do about it. But he knew Siku would take offense if he bolted off to find the autumn hued Alpha to talk about some illness he may or may not have had. She spoke then and distracted him from thoughts of scooting his ass over some hill and far away. He grinned then, watching her tuck her front legs up against her chest as he had once done. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 03-20-2011 [html] <3 <3 Our little project. Siku smiled at the thought, imagining herself and the handsome wolf laying beside her. They would soon be creating a home together. Her first real home. Heart still fluttering, Siku glanced up at Saul as she smiled a little wider. The white she-wolf could not believe the situation, nor the sharp turn her life had taken. Not too long ago, it seemed, Siku was pack-less. She had no home, no family, no friends. Nothing to work towards in life, or care for really. In just a few short months the young wolf was accepted into Dahlia, made numerous friends and now had a home to share with her best friend. It was almost too good to be true, and the golden eyed princess felt as if her chest would burst. There was happiness, excitement, curiosity and hope. The over whelmed wolf barely noticed as Saul rolled over, once again lost in her thoughts. There was so much to think about, process and speculate. However, as consumed as the woman was, she politely shut her inner voices up and glanced up at Saul with interest. Perhaps we can burrow under the house. Siku's light laugh was melodic as it escaped her, and she nuzzled Saul's nose with her own before stopping to giggle again. He had suggested burrowing under their new house, and the woman was amused by this comment. With a voice that expressed smugness but also a light teasing tone, Siku pointed her nose up and away from the young man. ''Well.. I've done it before, and it is in fact very snuggly underneath at night!'' Another laugh bubbled forth as Siku recalled that night. She'd tried sleeping inside the scrapped houses of Wolfville, but it felt awkward. The white princess was happy to crawl into the space beneath the building she couldn't sleep soundly inside. She even slept like a baby. Thoughts wandering again, Siku slid her gaze back to the handsome male and grinned. ''I'm sure we'll have plenty to do inside, though.'' There was a flirtatious edge to her assurance, though Siku wasn't fully aware. There was a side to her that just seemed to grow and want to tease the somewhat shy young man in front of her. As he added the last part of that statement, Siku smiled. He was so sweet, and he made her feel like he truly would be lost had he not found her. It was good, because the feeling was mutual. Siku sobered her playful attitude as the cinnamon eared licked her nose again, and she leaned forward to nuzzle him again as he pulled away from the innocent kiss. What the two wolves found in each other was important and not to be under estimated, Siku could feel it. When he found her in the snow months in the past, she found her new life. The Dahlian had given that to her, and with a kindness that never seemed to ebb. He had so much to give, and he gave it all without hesitation. The young woman yearned to return the favour, with an almost guilty feeling. It was hard not to feel like a bother, when she truly did not have anything to offer but her own company. With what seemed to be perfect timing, the words that left his lips immediately set the woman at ease. They needed each other. Up until now it was really just her depending on Saul, but that could change. Would change. Siku wanted to be able to repay the wolf for all that he had done for her. "I don't have anything to bring into this but myself.. But.." Golden eyes were steady on Saul as she spoke, her voice soft with sincerity. "I care about you, Saul. You make me happy. And I'm going to do all that I can.. To make sure you are happy too. As happy and as content as I am." The woman smiled shyly, her heart beating like crazy in her chest. Their friendship was so easy going, playful and comforting. Yet it had such a serious side to it that Siku was trying to grasp. .moonbird-text {padding:0px 10px;} .moonbird {padding:5px 0px; text-indent:25px; margin:0px;} .moonbird b {color:#5c3c77; font-weight:bold;} .moonbird {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background-color:#848488; background-image:url(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8168/souls77.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:fixed; padding:270px 0px 10px 0px; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#3a3a7b; word-spacing:.2px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:.1px; text-align:justify; border:1px solid #000000;} </style> [/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-21-2011 [html] ooc;; <33 Her peals of laughter were like sweet honey to his ears and he settled against the grass, content to listen to them until he was lost or completely head over heels. He didnt know this feeling, he didnt understand why his heart threatening to burst out of his chest or claw its way out of his throat all at the same time. It was strange and it was scary. But when he was with her, it was like he couldnt do anything. He felt as though his spirits lifted when he saw the flash of white and gold that announced her presence. He couldnt explain it no, but he could enjoy it until he died. Or something to that standard at least. Her little nose darted between his thick fur, a nuzzle that he would return with slow seriousness. He couldnt help the chuckle that quickly developed to a full blown laugh as she mentioned about doing it before. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Siku - 03-21-2011 [html] <3 "It's secure! As secure as standing inside the house anyway." Siku mumbled in reply, not quite noticing Saul's distress at the thought. As he spoke once more, the sound of his voice sent a pleasant tremble through the slender woman's body. He made her feel so special, and different. There was something about the handsome male that made her feel like something was missing. She wanted him closer, much closer. Golden eyes could not meet Saul's as she glanced down, flushed. Her thoughts were jumbled, and she felt a little dazzled. Just the thought of being closer to him.. Siku enjoyed the idea of it more than she thought she should. As he nuzzled her back, Siku could sense that the feeling was mutual. He was having just as much trouble with their situation, and understanding it. She could see it in his eyes, a spark that could easily turn to a flame. With another tingle, the alabaster wolf buried her face in his neck. She could not look at the man, not when strange thoughts would not leave her mind. She had the urge to be closer, but only granted herself the snuggle of her muzzle at his neck. It was affectionate, but still innocent. Siku was nervous to be crossing his boundary. Did he have one? Siku thought she did.. But with the cinnamon eared Dahlian it seemed that line disintegrated into a big welcome sign. She would do anything he wanted, she was putty in his hands by now. The best part of falling for Saul unknowingly, Siku did not worry even once about what she was getting into. The larger, kind hearted wolf would not hurt her no matter what happened. She knew, with a certainty that comforted her often. "No.. You're my best friend." Siku corrected the man teasingly, her golden eyes looking up at him again. She grinned, giving him a big sloppy kiss on the nose to bother him. As he mentioned moving in together, excitement grew for the woman. It would be nice, living with someone. Siku knew for sure Saul would be there for her, always, now. "We'll see if you can handle me 24/7!" The snow furred princess hadn't a clue what the others in their pack would think, including Conor, but she was happy. They were happy. Even if neither truly understood what their actions meant, they did it out of care for each other. That was the point right? .moonbird-text {padding:0px 10px;} .moonbird {padding:5px 0px; text-indent:25px; margin:0px;} .moonbird b {color:#5c3c77; font-weight:bold;} .moonbird {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background-color:#848488; background-image:url(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8168/souls77.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:fixed; padding:270px 0px 10px 0px; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#3a3a7b; word-spacing:.2px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:.1px; text-align:justify; border:1px solid #000000;} </style> [/html] - Saul Stormbringer - 03-28-2011 [html] ooc;; end thread soon? we can has another in the house! <33 She seemed defensive about her choice of sleeping arrangements and Saul couldnt help the laughter that came from him. It was just so easy to be around her that he didnt think about the sounds he made or anything like that. A simple shake of his head indicated that he had no more to say on the subject of sleeping under houses instead of in them. Of course, he wasnt unused to sleeping outdoors. Two months of it had seen him with enough outdoor skills to last a lifetime. He just preferred to have a house with his own room where he could do whatever he wanted without being judged. Like his morning rituals. It stabbed him then that she might find him weird. Pushing it down, he snuggled closer as the white wolf buried herself in his neck. He was happy to lay there, breathing deeply the scent that he would most certainly be used to in a few weeks. .saul-r09 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .saul-r09 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .saul-r09 b {color:#DCC8BC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .saul-r09 {background-color:#655850; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/saul2.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#26201C; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:250px 0px 10px 0px; } .saul-r09-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] |
