OMFG. *dies from cute overload* XDDD I'm gonna have Bris call Conor in this post, especially since they've been hoping and expecting the rest of the siblings to show up! Just edit the title of your post so Libri knows we need Conor! ;D

She could understand the little boy's apprehension completely. Bris had heard stories of her devil of a father from the Stormbringer side of her family, stories that admittedly gave her nightmares. She couldn't imagine a life in a pack under his twisted dictatorship, and Gideon had already come so far from the terrified and cowering little lump he'd been when Conor and Bris had found him. With time, hopefully the same changes would appear in Shiloh and Ascher. They deserved a normal puppyhood, surrounded by adults who loved them, a puppyhood decidedly different from the one she knew they'd have under the Dawnrunners' control.

Bris' smile broadened as Giddy moved to embrace his brother. She chuckled as she realized she didn't have to answer Ascher's question, as the Dahlian pup had taken the lead and told his brother pretty much everything she figured he'd need to know. The kneeling woman kept quiet as the brothers reunited. Gideon had the education part of the reunion in his complete control, and she was really only needed to supervise and watch over them. Bris' heart melted at the obvious relationship the pups shared, and as they talked, she found herself chuckling quietly until she felt it was time to annouce the good news to the one who should hear it most. "Giddy, fill your brother in on everything. I'm going to go ahead and give Conor a shout and let him know Ascher's safe and sound, ok?"

The yearling winked at her nephew, ruffling his ears with her hand as she rose to her feet, taking a few steps away to let the brothers get reacquainted. Satisfied with the distance between her and her charges, Bris took a deep breath and pointed her black nose to the stormy sky. Gentle rolls of thunder added a counterpoint to her song, a melody that she knew would stretch across the packland to the cozy little house she now called home with the pups, Vark, and Conor. Her message to the alpha was simple: Giddy found Ascher, hungry but unharmed! Will start heading home! After her informative call was over, the woman quietly made her way back to the little pair of wet pups. Crouching down beside them, her soft voice was a gentle warmth against the cold of the falling rain. "What do you say we start heading back to the house and get you two dry and warm, mmm? I let Conor know we found a tagalong, he'll either meet us out here or at the house. Ascher, I'll bet you're probably hungry too. There's plenty to eat back home, and Shiloh will be so excited to see you."
