"Excuse me, where do you think you're going alone?" came a voice nearby. Ty was inexplicably showing up right about now. He had actually appeared to talk to Geneva about things, how she was doing and such, but he had also overheard the situation about the pregnant wolf temporarily living with her. Now, Ty had little to no experience with pregnant women, but he knew more than enough not to let them go wander around alone, one would never know what would happen to them. Placing his hand on his luperci hip, he sighed at the plump wolfess and said "You are the new wolf...Naniko D'Angelo, correct?" Not entirely caring about the answer too much, he decided to go straight to business, although he did chastise the wolfess "In your state, it doesn't make too much sense to let you roam alone." He sighed and shrugged as he bowed slightly to the lady, trying to be more a gentlemen then he had previously produced. "Eh....sorry, I'm Ty Trenton Nasphrite, have you seen Geneva anywhere? I'd like to have a small chat with her about things." - Naniko D'Angelo - 09-23-2009 [html]
- Ty Trenton Nasphrite - 09-24-2009 [html] Ty cocked his head as the wolfess' tail wagged in excitement and she nudged him with genuine enthusiasm. One brow raised in suspicion as she said she was his 'Auntie Naniko', he had an Aunt? Ty was confused, suspicious even. "My father had relatives?" Ty asked the woman, cocking his head to one side as he spoke in a hesitant voice. "That's strange, my father never mentioned anything about us having relatives...." He frowned lightly, though he had no reason no to trust her on this. His father never really said anything about his family outside the valley, the old man had a lot of secrets, secrets that Ty was now curious to know, such as him having an aunt. Although he had his doubts, for now he'd take her word for it, no sense in starting to just deny it now. So, he simply replied in a cheery tone "Well, it's good to meet a fellow relative of mine, I'm happy to meet you...aunt Naniko. However, that's when he noticed that she had hissed and crumpled slightly. At first, he didn't think anything of it, one of the children could have kicked or something, but he began to notice the panic on the wolfess' face, the rather readiness to lie down, her eyes in a bit of a panic. He quickly rushed to the aid of the pregnant wolf,asking her in a steady but calm tone. "Hey, uh, are you alright? You don't look so good.." He said as he placed a hand on her back, attempting to steady her. Not the most experienced with pregnant woman, he searched his head for reasons she'd feel sick. "Uh...perhaps you should lie down." - Naniko D'Angelo - 09-25-2009 [html]

anyone who wants to come in now can It took a minute to get what she wanted him to get people for, but when it did come to him, he slightly panicked. "Wait...you aren't...they aren't about too....are they?..." His eyes sprung open wide with surprise. "Oh. Shit." He uttered as she explained to him to go get help, he nodded, but should he really let her run back to her cabin alone? He didn't know if that was a good thing to leave her by herself with the pups, but there wasn't any time to really debate it now, they were on their way, and Ty had to go find help. Without another second of hesitation, Ty had bolted out to go find help, switching to wolf form as he did. As he ran, he began to shout and holler for aid, yelping "Hey! Geneva! Anyone! Help me out here! We got an emergency!" However, he stopped running ofter a second, he shook his head in realizationof his own stupidity, then slapped himself in the forehead, muttering "Wait a minute...I'm a wolf, duh!" Planting all four feet on the ground, he inhaled deeply before letting out a distressed howl for aid. He hoped it would get someone's attention, the howl was loud enough for birds nearby to fly out of their trees in a small panic. It echoed across the land for anyone nearby to at least hear, if not get a jolt from it. - Geneva Stockholm - 09-26-2009 [html] http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g210/ ... ntable.png); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> Babies.
- Angelique du Coudray - 09-26-2009 Angel had only been sleeping briefly when she woke to hear a commotion nearby. He recognized the voice and soon was out the door racing to the source to see Ty. "Hey! Whats goin on?" Angel had answered her own question when she looked to see Geneva moving a very pregnant female inside. "Ahh I see! Good that you called! Geneva, if you need anything let me know! I will see if I can find some pain medicine in case if you need any!" Angel called as she rummaged through her bag she had grabbed on the way out. Finding the small bottle of pain killers, she knew it would take too long to work unless she had morphine, and that was usually hard to get. Vikadin! That would help more than the morphine unless she had a bad experience with it. Angel running to catch up opened the door for the two of them so they could walk inside and once the door was open she immediately began to rummage up some things. "Ty, I will need your help. I need you to get a bowl of some kind for some warm water, and some towels and get them warm. Get plenty of them. We will need them if her water has not broken yet." Angel really hoped Geneva did not mind that she was taking the initiative to gather these things together. Finding extra pillows and blankets, she placed them on the couch so they were easy to grab when the time came for it. Angel looked around as she began to gather some towels knowing they would me more than what Ty may grab. At least eight to ten towels would work. "Is there anything I can do Geneva?" Let me know if this is okay, otherwise I shall edit my post. - Pontiac - 09-27-2009 [html]
- Ehno Marino - 09-27-2009 [html] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/ ... banner.jpg); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> yayyy. 300+ It had been over a week since he first arrived, and he was finally starting to get a familiar feel for some of the lands in Phoenix Valley. It was such a different territory from the lands back in Crimson Dreams, with a different sort of atmosphere to it. It may have felt so strange to the Captain simply because the pack was so unfamiliar to him. He knew only two of the other members here besides Naniko. Part of him was on edge each time he stepped outside and made his way through the territory because he was worried one of the members he did not know might find him and take him for an intruder. Explaining the unique situation he found himself in to a stranger wasn’t something he looked forward to. Earlier that morning Ehno chose to take the risk and go out for a little hunt. He had been utterly unsuccessful in all his attempts, so with a slight frustration, he changed his plans for the day to going on a short walk before returning to Naniko’s cabin. The man was too distracted to focus, thoughts concentrated on Naniko and the pups. She could be giving birth any day now and excitement buzzed within his mind at all times. He hated to leave her when the time was so close, but he knew Geneva would be nearby and she would be fine. Ehno was stopped immediately in his tracks by a frantic cry. The voice was unfamiliar, but its purpose was crystal clear, and with his mind so focused on Naniko, he knew that this had to be about her. Without another thought the Dreamer bolted toward the cabin, all four paws moving as fast as he could will them. The building was in sight before long and he slowed as he pushed through the door. “Nani,” he called softly as he entered. He glanced around wearily at all those who had gathered, worry building as he noticed the frantic state some of them seemed to be in. “…Is everything ok? Is it time?” Amber eyes returned to Naniko, a flurry of excitement, worry, and anticipation reflected in their depths. - Naniko D'Angelo - 09-27-2009 [html]

"Yes, this is a good emergency, but still an emergency." Ty replied to Genevam actually quite calmed now that others were here. His original slightly panicked cry was just from a lack of experience with this sort of thing. "I apologize for making my call so panicked, I didn't want to really worry anyone...It's just...ehhh..." Ty paused in his sentence and his eyes drifted away from Geneva's in embarrassment, he was trying to keep the embarrassed flush away from his cheeks. "It's just I...I don't know anything about childbirth. I was afraid I was going to have to help out, and I don't want to be the cause of dead kids or wrongly born children." He chuckled lightly, though nervously. Of course his fears were confirmed when Angel came in and told him to go get a bowl and boil some hot water. "Whoa...wait a minute...I don't think..." but Ty realized mid-sentence actually trying to justify not helping was a bad idea, there was a wolf giving birth, and Ty might as well help any way he could. Nodding slowly, he switched to his luperci form as he began to look through the cabin for a bowl. Of course, when he opened one cupboard, he was met with slew of bowls, but they were teetering, and before Ty knew it the bowls had fallen on him with a mighty clash, bashing against his head and arms. Nevertheless Ty found one and began to attempt to boil it in the fireplace, which was conveniently still going. Then he nearly scalded his hand trying to deliver the boiling water to Angel to help out, but with what, Ty had no idea. He thought about running off after that, but that would just seem irresponsible now, he remained at the cabin and watched from afar to see if he was going to be needed for anything else. He sat quietly in the corner, not knowing what to expect. Ty did get back to the scene to see the pups actually being born, which was quite an interesting sight for Ty to see. To put things in perspective, Ty had lived on a battlefield, participated in pack wars across the globe, seen blood and carnage over and over, one would think this wouldn't affect Ty in the slightest, and yet now he shifted uncomfortably at the sight of Naniko giving birth. He'd never seen something living spring out of another being, like some parasitic organism from a human sci-fi horror film, this was all new to Ty. He'd never seen this before, so to actually watch it was an awkward situation for the orange-tan wolf, although he didn't really cringe or grimace, he simply seemed slightly uncomfortable. One by one, the children were born, and each one had their own specific name, it sounds like Naniko already had them all named out. This was truly a successful birthing, no dead pups, no miscarriages, nothing bad happened, they all came out rather smoothly. Now Ty simply wanted to get out of there, he wasn't exactly involved with this, but he now felt he was part of this, she was his "aunt" after all. Sure, it sounded like Davinci was simply adopted into the family, but if she was still family, then Ty concluded that he should stick with family. He sat in the corner and observed the situation silently from afar, not needing to act out any further after delivering the bowl of hot water. - Geneva Stockholm - 09-28-2009 [html] http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g210/ ... ntable.png); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> .
- Angelique du Coudray - 09-28-2009 Angel nodded and remained silent in this. "Thank you Ty. I know you don't have experience so I won't ask you to do more if you don't wish of it. This is all I will be needing at the moment. Hello Naniko. I am Angel. I am a healer of the pack and will be helping you to make sure the pups are nice and healthy if that is alright of you. Here are some warm towels and warm water to keep the pups warm and such." Angel said as she smiled looking upon each of them. She would not dare touch them unless she had gotten permission from Naniko herself. She laid the towels in one hand and then questioned with her eyes to help clean the pups off and to check how healthy they were since she was experienced with the birthing process of such. She placed a light down on the floor and lit it dimly so Naniko could see what she was doing. Angel remained calm at the same time and eyed each one from afar. They all looked healthy and they looked like they began to shiver. So with taking one of the towels she placed it over the pups as their whines and yelps were sounding into the air. "Mind if I pick one up?" Angel asked gently, and if Naniko said no, then she would kindly respect that wish. One never knew however. Angel dared not to be intruding at this very moment. "Any tea or water we can get you?" - Pontiac - 10-02-2009 [html]

Puppieeeees 300+ Everything seemed to be happening so fast. The few that had gathered inside the quaint cabin were rushing about, looking either frantic or excited, and in some cases, a mixture of both. Naniko’s words betrayed the identity of the other ivory female as her sister. Ehno’s gaze drifted to her for a moment as he wondered how he had never known of her existence before. But his thoughts could not focus on one subject for long, and not a moment later Geneva stole up to him, grasping his arms and leading him to the crowd with words of congratulations. He was grateful for not only her kind words, but also the kindness she had shown Naniko and the home she had offered to her here. “Thank you,” he managed to utter, before his attention was swept back to the D’Angelo woman beneath the bed. Before he knew it, four beautiful little bodies lay squirming beside Naniko. The biggest and perhaps most sincere smile he had had in weeks quickly graced his features. His tail began to wag happily as his amber gaze took in the sight of their children, making his excitement even more apparent. The mother announced the names of the four squirming children and Ehno nodded quickly in approval. "Bei nomi per i bei bambini," he said, looking back up to Nani. The musical sounds of his native tongue matched his uplifted mood. The only thing that could make this moment even better for the Italian was if his family had been there. It gave this moment a bittersweet feel, and he pushed the thought away as quickly as he could. He knew that thought would be haunting him plenty enough later on. The black-furred stranger—the pack’s healer, he had to assume—spoke of the puppies and moved closer to them. Ehno’s amber gaze flew to her quickly and he stiffened slightly. Instinctually and involuntarily his fur stood on end, but he remained silent, gaze studying the stranger. He knew she was only trying to help, but his innermost protective instincts could not be stopped. The chocolate hued male kept still, gaze drifting toward Naniko to see what her response would be. If she approved of this woman being so close to the pups, he would relax. - Naniko D'Angelo - 10-03-2009 [html]
- Ty Trenton Nasphrite - 10-06-2009 [html] Ty was now curled up into a sleepy ball in the corner of the room, letting the others handle the situation, it was becoming more and more apparent that Ty was no longer needed, but he didn't want to leave just yet, or at least not until someone formally dismissed him. Who knows what could happen if he were to leave? He didn't just want to leave people high and dry, so he stayed, he stayed and watched as the little pups, now being cleaned from their birth, were now beginning to write and squirm in Angel's grip, and although they still looked slightly slimy, Ty couldn't help but smile at the little pups, they were still very cute. Ty dind't know what it was about children, but he seemed to enjoy their company, at least when they weren't being pains in the ass. Perhaps one day, he would have a child or few and take care of them, raise them well, make himself a proud father. However, this led to Ty wondering about his own future, his own life. He had no mate, he had no mate, he had no female to call a lover, he didn't even have a goal for that, so where exactly was he in terms of ever having children? Ty realized that having children would require finding a mate, a task that he wasn't all that fond of. Despite being friendly and confident, he had never been all that focused in conversing with women about dating, or romance, mainly because he knew so little about it. Sure, he had some experiences, but they were few, far, and forgettable, Ty hadn't been looking that hard for a mate until now. He sighed and turned his head away from the group realizing that he should probably get into finding a mate, or he would end up never gaining one. But today wasn't about him was it? No, no it was about Naniko, his new apparent aunt, so he would simply smile when noticed and keep his trap shut. - Geneva Stockholm - 10-09-2009 [html] http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j19/S ... ranges.png); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat; width:300px; border:1px #000000 solid; font-size: 10px; line-height: 12px;"> Seeing the new parents' reaction to Angelique, the sub-leader laid a hand on her shoulder and drew her back gently. She kept her features in a neutral expression, although the glimmers of a smile stayed around her mouth. She was very proud of Naniko and glad that she had made it through her labor. The pups all looked healthy - there was even one that looked as though it was a bit oversized. All seemed to be well, and so the woman figured that it was time to give the new family some time to themselves.

I r slow, apologies! <3 Naniko’s reaction mirrored his own. She tensed and pulled the squirming newborn pups further beneath the bed, silently answering the healer’s superfluous question. Ehno remained silent and still, gaze darting between Naniko and the unknown healer, unsure of what to do now. He was so focused on the two women that he did not notice Geneva approach until she was already gently leading the dark-furred healer away. He shot her a grateful glance before turning his attention to his small family. He almost couldn’t believe it. Those healthy, beautiful little children were theirs. Ehno smiled, feeling very proud. Geneva pulled at his attention once more, offering the suggestion of leaving the new parents to spend time alone with the children. The smile was still on his lips as he nodded in appreciation to the gray-furred woman. “Thank you,” he said again. The Dreamer took a moment to look to each of the remaining gathered wolves and offered them friendly smile. Ehno then turned and scooted a tiny bit closer to the bed, lowering himself to the ground in order to get a better view of Naniko and the four little ones. A beaming smile shown on his features as he looked at the D’Angelo lady. She had done so well bringing these four little lives into the world. He could only imagine how exhausted she must be. She deserved some time to rest. |
