[html]500+. Wheeeee.
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.
