thin ice

She said her name, it was almost exotic. A small smile fell upon his lips as he had almost found himself repeating thus, but at the last moment thought better of himself. "Lovely.." he said finally.. not as overpowering as he'd been thinking but a compliment just the same. He hadn't realized that the male who had proclaimed the other young wolfess his mate had been her brother, but as she spoke of it now he nodded. "Yes, though it hadn't realized you were siblings.." So many of the pack scents were so close he could almost assume that a lot of the pack was related but he didn't know if it was true or not so he kept the thoughts to himself. He was a simple creature and the embellishments of the mateship had been a bit much for him. While he had been glad that two young wolves still could find their soulmates in this crazy new world he wasn't sure what his place was in their own pack yet.

He almost laughed though as the young girl demanded that he hadn't revealed his name, a sparkle in his eyes as he grinned a rather toothy grin and repeated. "Thoirni.. that's my name.. not technically my personality.. at all times." He was thorny sometimes, but he generally didn't mean to be. The changes in the world today scared him a little and he wasn't certain how to deal. Often he did come off stony and thorny but it was a better guard than running.

He turned his eyes back to the lake before them as he commented idly. "Within the moon and she should be frozen.." The thin ice that tempered the lake already would grow thicker still. He had lived through enough seasons to know the moods of the winter months.. though nature wasn't afraid to toss a curve ball here or there..
