- Anu - 02-20-2012 [html] all welcome, for the thread prompt. [/html] - Kota - 02-21-2012 May i join? Kota had been out exploring once more in the early hours of the morning, he had been here in this pack awhile and still he had not explored every inch of the land to his satisfaction. This particular morning he found himself in what appeared to be an orchard of some kind of fruit tree's. With his interest tickled at what type fruit these tree's may bare Kota ventured onward into the heart of the grove. He continued slowly untill his ears picked up the scrape, scrape, scrape of rock on metal; this sound both worried him and made him wonder who it could be. It wasn't long however before he found out, the scraping had stopped but now he could see who had been making it. Kota stood and watched the figure a moment before it struck him just where he had seen this wolf before! it had been at the pack meeting; she had sat at the head at a position just lower then the one whom he vowed his unwavering loyalty to. Kota flushed at that thought; maybe he had gone to far in making such a scene infront of the whole pack, but at least his feelings were made clear. Now with hesitant steps; the black wolf approched the second in command and with a voice strong but respectfull; called out. "Hello!" before the other could even turn good Kota was down upon one knee with his head bowed respectfully to her. This style of showing respect to a higher rank had been taught to him in his old pack where they were close to the old kings and queens of centuries past. Kota spoke not another word but waited to be greeted in return; another sign of respect...at least in his eyes. Kota didn't know the others name but as he bowed there with the slight breeze blowing the cloak of black cloth; he coudn't help but admire her beauty; it was truely a pleasure to see that Crimson Dreams held so many attractive wolves, and not just female. Durring the meet he had seen some handsome males to, to Kota beauty wasn't a thing to attract a mate; to him beauty was art. Beauty was....was....well it just was and he was happy about that. Then as he gazed still at her from slightly hidden eyes he realised! this was the second in command! Oak had mentioned that his mother held that position; maybe this was his new friends mother. - Anu - 02-21-2012 [html] thanks for joining! [/html] - Kota - 02-21-2012 Kota stayed in that bowing position untill the introductions were completed "my name is Kota...as you know ma'am, i am honored to be in your presence" it sounded as if she had summoned him instea dof him chancing upon her. He stood up but his stance obviously submissive to her "may i ask...why do you cut the branchs from these tree's? it would stand to believe the more branchs then the more fruit, right?" his smile a inquisitive one. He risked a step closer to the second in command; wanting to close the gap to that of a friendly distence wthout causing offense at the sametime. His cloak blew slowly in the wind and made him look almost like a dark spector from another plane of exsistence; Death maybe. BUt those gentle blue eyes were not those of Death who claimed millions of souls each day but those of a young man; passionate in everything he does. - Anu - 02-22-2012 [html] [/html] - Kota - 02-22-2012 A smile spread over his lips as he listend to her speak about the tree as if it were a young pup that needed her guidence. He came up beside her and with an at first hesitant hand; he touched the tree and listend with his eyes closed. The wind blew through its branchs and its leaves rustled; Kota smiles happily at what apparently only he can hear. "The tree...she thanks you and is happy...she feels lighter and more free" of course the tree did not actually speak in a way that most could understand but if you knew how to listen; the trees said a lot. It was not some mystical voodoo shaman stunt Kota had done but only listend to how the leaves rustled in the wind; how the wind blew through the branchs and felt how the tree moved under his hand. "oh yes! i do enjoy fruite quite a bit actually; those of the peach family are my favorite but i love them all." He felt at ease with Anu; a strange kind of calmness that most of the time he could only find when he was along deep in the woods. He smiled to her. - Anu - 02-24-2012 [html] [/html] - Kota - 02-24-2012 [html] I love this table! Kota smiled at the Praetor, he too felt a calmness around the woman that not many in his experience had. When she expressed her desire for a grove of peach tree's Kota set his mind to working! he would vist each pack and respectfull ask their leaders if they have peachs. If they did then he would ask if he may have a few or take a clipping from the tree. He wanted to do this for her as he and her son were planning on redoing the old windmill for the pack. Kota noticed the second set of shears when she pointed to them; he walked over and oicked them up "as long as you are my teacher M'am then i am more then happy to learn." At first Kota didn't even bother raising the shears but carefully watched which type of branches the Praetor snipped away. Then with hesitantence in his movements Kota raised the shears and snipped away a branch simular to those that she had. The poor guy didn't want to hurt the tree and he knew one wrong cut would do just that. His progress was slow and many times he would stop with the blades poised on a branch as if second guessing himself. A few times he removed the blades and then others he would follow through with the shears and cut them away. He so desperately hoped that he was doing it right. .kotafeb b {font-weight:bold; color:#184a79; letter-spacing:1px; text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em #;} .kotafeb-ooc {font-style:italic; padding:0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; text-align:left;} .kotafeb p {text-indent:25px; padding:5px 12px; margin:0px;} .kotafeb .box {width:220px;height:300px;float:right;} .kotafeb {margin:0 auto; width:90%; background-color:#000000; background-image:url(http://i.imgur.com/U55Rt.png); background-position:top right; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:1px solid #000000; padding: 5px 0px 10px 0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; letter-spacing:.3px; word-spacing:.8px; line-height:13px; text-align:left;} </style> [/html] - Anu - 02-28-2012 [html] yay! [/html] - Kota - 02-28-2012 [html] Thank you sooooooo much <3 ^^ Kota was getting a bit more brave with his cuts but still he skittish on cutting the wrong branch; he wanted the tree to be happy and not hurt from his foolish inexperience. He paused only a moment to set the shears down and remove the black cloth cloak from around his body which left him in a loin cloth and a sword in a brown gold scabbarb. His hands then went back to work in forming the tree yet he did it a bit differently then her; where she had the vision of what it should look like. Kota had been listening to the tree itself; to the branchs that rubbed to painfully against each other or the ones that shook to violently in small winds. At the question Kota paused again in his work and gave a nervous chuckle "no..i haven't, though i don't mind living in a building. Its just i would perfer to live more to myself. The old windmill if i can get it fixed up...me and oak that is. i may live in the top and run some kind of service to the pack from the bottom." He so hoped that being the second in command that she would like his idea but he wasn't sure how she wuld like the fact that Oak may help him. He went back to trimming instead to keep his mind at least a little off the worry of what her reaction may be. .kotafeb b {font-weight:bold; color:#184a79; letter-spacing:1px; text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em #;} .kotafeb-ooc {font-style:italic; padding:0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; text-align:left;} .kotafeb p {text-indent:25px; padding:5px 12px; margin:0px;} .kotafeb .box {width:220px;height:300px;float:right;} .kotafeb {margin:0 auto; width:90%; background-color:#000000; background-image:url(http://i.imgur.com/U55Rt.png); background-position:top right; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:1px solid #000000; padding: 5px 0px 10px 0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; letter-spacing:.3px; word-spacing:.8px; line-height:13px; text-align:left;} </style> [/html] - Anu - 03-02-2012 [html] [/html] - Kota - 03-02-2012 [html] Kota hadn't thought of making the meal and gains for trade with other packs but that seem a very good idea. And if Oak wanted to help; maybe they could build a fence and shelter behind the mill to house horses. But that was all still in the future, a future to far away to clearly see it at that moment. Kota stepped away the tree he had been clipping on and gazed at it for a moment; he was just about to announce his completion of it when a slight breeze directed his attention to one last stray limb. He clipped it away carefully then stepped back once more to examine it. "How is that miss Anu?" Kota asked while he lowered the shears to his side. There were many aspects in this pack that could beckon him, he could follow with his idea with the windmill or along with Anu in taking take of the groves. He could learn metal or wood working and lend his services there; or as a warrior. Maybe he would go for two; warrior and his idea for the mill. Kota looked over at the beautiful older female for her advice on his work on the tree and couldn't help but to admire how she looked; he didn't know how old she really was but whatever her age; she carried herself and indeed stll held the beauty of a younger wolf and it made him happy. .kotafeb b {font-weight:bold; color:#184a79; letter-spacing:1px; text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em #;} .kotafeb-ooc {font-style:italic; padding:0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; text-align:left;} .kotafeb p {text-indent:25px; padding:5px 12px; margin:0px;} .kotafeb .box {width:220px;height:300px;float:right;} .kotafeb {margin:0 auto; width:90%; background-color:#000000; background-image:url(http://i.imgur.com/U55Rt.png); background-position:top right; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:1px solid #000000; padding: 5px 0px 10px 0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; letter-spacing:.3px; word-spacing:.8px; line-height:13px; text-align:left;} </style> [/html] - Anu - 03-05-2012 [html]wanna close this up? maybe we could plot something out [/html] - Kota - 03-09-2012 [html] Sure, i really enjoy plotting with you Miss Alli Kota smiled at the praise given by the older more experienced wolfess, he enjoyed it but did not allow it to go to his head. He laid the shears down and stepped back away the tree further "thank you ma'am. I would love to shape trees with you as often as you should need my assistence." Kota smiled to her; a certain glint in his eye spoke of happiness that he has a home now and friends. Kota wanted to shape another tree and yet another but his arms ached from the experience of doing something new for such a prolonged time. He rubbed them slowly and tentively; trying to work the soreness out of the mucles. he was indeed proud of what he had done and it made him feel even more a part of the pack. .kotafeb b {font-weight:bold; color:#184a79; letter-spacing:1px; text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em #;} .kotafeb-ooc {font-style:italic; padding:0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; text-align:left;} .kotafeb p {text-indent:25px; padding:5px 12px; margin:0px;} .kotafeb .box {width:220px;height:300px;float:right;} .kotafeb {margin:0 auto; width:90%; background-color:#000000; background-image:url(http://i.imgur.com/U55Rt.png); background-position:top right; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:1px solid #000000; padding: 5px 0px 10px 0px; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#473c35; letter-spacing:.3px; word-spacing:.8px; line-height:13px; text-align:left;} </style> [/html] |
