OOC: sorry for the lateness. ^^; also, thanks for letting lotus know that I wouldn't be responding last week. sorry if this post sucks. 559 words.
Aria had been wandering around in her luperci form (starting to get used to the way this form walked), slightly lost in her own thoughts after having sought after something she could use to be helpful to this new pack. She had been thinking of working to create simple wooden objects, but since she couldn't find anything that she could use to carve the wood up. "... What could... maybe if I..." she mumbled to herself as she stayed lost in her contemplations, not realizing that she was actually talking.
After about an hour of traveling around the packland, the gray-white wolf came across a small set of tracks, with a scent that tugged at her memories and pulled her out of her thoughts. Sniffing at the tracks, the female knew it was familiar but she was unable to place it to the exact wolf from the pack. Seeing that the tracks had to belong to a pup, just from their size, Aria decided to follow them to find out who they belong to and to find out who's scent it was (though she was sure it would come to her eventually even if she didn't find the one who left the tracks).
While she thought about who the scent was from, Aria began to wonder what a pup would be doing away from it's mother and hoping that the pup was old enough to be out on it's own, though she was pretty sure it wasn't just from the size that it wouldn't be allowed out if the mother knew. Sighing, the female tried not to think about the pups she had lost several months ago, trying to keep old wounds closed.
Several minutes later, the arctic wolf heard voices ahead of her, and stopped. She turned her ears toward the sound and managed to catch "And dirt too!" coming from a very young voice (obviously the pup she had been following). Starting to move forward to see the pup, Aria heard another voice, this one female, and froze about 60-70 feet away from her target. She listened once more and heard "Snow? Yeah it's pretty cold out, isn't it?" and then, "Thank you for the help, but I'm not looking for snow or dirt. I need something softer, to sleep on." Curious Aria smirked mentally when the pup was asked where it's parents were.
Deciding that the other female meant no harm to the pup, Aria moved forward, barking to let the other adult wolf know she was coming and to avoid alarming her. Looking at the pup, she took in his asthetics, raising her eyebrow slightly at the orange stripe amidst the black fur. The white wolf smiled softly at the pup, a bit of her maternal side kicking in at the youth of the pup before saying "So that's where you ended up." (not realizing how it would sound to the other luperci). Then she remembered the other female and turned to her slightly on edge at the unfamiliar face "Sorry about walking in so suddenly." The gray female said, with a bit of formality, unsure of the comparison between their ranks and who was higher/lower or if they were the same. "How long has he been here?" She questioned, looking back at the pup, wondering nearly the same thing the other adult wolf was wondering.
