Word Count → 416 :: I wonder who drew my table! :o The Gamma was, unsurprisingly, anxious. He paced on his strange two legs, hands clasped around the small, broken body of two little rabbits. Shandom clung to them like a lifeline, comforted to feel their small bodies between his strong paws. They were a gift, and so he would not cause them undue harm - indeed, the rabbits themselves were barely touched. Shandom had killed them rather easily and without much of a blood bath, and it had taken away the excitement of the hunt. But he did not want any gift he presented to Naniko to be anything less than what she deserved, which were lovely things. He'd even gone so far as to tie a ribbon and bow around their necks, a strange tradition he'd noticed in the more humanized packs. Of course, it wasn't a well constructed bow. Neither of them were. They were clumsily tied together and rather hideously colored - Shandom had found the shoestrings (though he did not know their true name) partially buried under some dirt, and had eagerly gnawed them apart with hungry teeth. The ends were rather frayed as a result, but the alabaster Gamma spent several hours sitting in his bipedal form under a tree, dark eyes narrowed in concentration as he tried, over and over, to tie the bow he'd been shown so many months ago by the woman Saxif. The golden girl had been his first experience in Optime form, and he thought of her with fondness - it was a pity he'd never seen her again, as she had been sweet and funny. Shandom had enjoyed speaking with her, and participating in other elicit activities together. They'd had an electricity, of sorts. But he was not here to think about her - no, he was at the borders of Anathema to visit Naniko, and he was eager to see her. Many moons had passed since their last meeting, but both were busy - she with her leader duties, he with his Gamma responsibilities. Shandom had made this time to see her, though, and would have been slightly crushed if she weren't there to answer his call. It was a thought he'd only really considered once he'd actually arrived at the borders of Anathema, and, standing barely outside the pack, he wondered if he'd made the right decision. Regardless, the white man tossed his head up to the sky and let out a booming call, requesting her presence and identifying himself. And then he waited.

Word Count → 504 :: (: Waiting was honestly the worst part of just about anything. Shandom desperately wanted his four legs again, to be able to pace freely and feel less unnatural than he did now, but it worried him to be in such a form in Anathema. He felt vulnerable that way, like an outsider who was sneered upon for his strange ways. It was bizarre to him that such a mentality existed, but there was nothing he could do about the culture of others. They were allowed to live their life as they so chose, but Shandom wanted nothing more than to be in his own, natural way again so he could move back and forth comfortably. Instead, he stood upon his two legs and paced back and forth before deciding he looked rather silly. Sighing, the male sank to the ground on his two legs and curled up as naturally as he could. He looked rather ridiculous lying there with his arms tucked neatly underneath himself and legs tucked similarly, but from a distance he might look like he were in his natural, four legged form. Of course, his head looked strange and he was downright massive compared to what he normally looked like, but there was nothing he could do. Shandom did not want to shift and run the risk of having someone come while he was in such a vulnerable state. This would have to do - he'd seen Zalen in such a state before, and the idea was rather useful, if not for him on a daily basis. Soon the wind caught and he smelled Naniko before he heard her. A wide smile broke across his dark lips and he lifted himself on to all fours, tail waving back and forth rather frantically as his dark eyes canvassed the area, eagerly seeking the Angela. He luckily realized that he'd discarded the rabbits to the ground and snatched them up in eager teeth, suddenly grateful for his increased size so he could hold both. Of course, he looked rather ridiculous - but it didn't matter to the New Dawn Gamma. Every time he saw Naniko he was in some sort of an absurd state, so this would be no different. Her voice came quickly after her scent, seeking him, and he barked loudly before actually forming words. "I'm over here!" he called, though the words were muffled and barely intelligible through his mouthful of rabbit. She wasn't far, so the Gamma shook his head and decided to bound over to her. Long legs brought him within sight of her quickly, and his tail beat the air faster as he approached her. "Hey, friend," Shandom mumbled through his mouth of rabbit, dropping them at her feet before giving her a wide grin. He assumed he had to look rather strange, perched on four limbs yet still in his bi-pedal form. "I brought you some rabbits." His smile was shy and eager as he nudged them with his dark nose. "To say thanks for last time."

Word Count → 419 :: omg he's such a shameless flirt.
A wide grin was spread across his alabaster muzzle as Shandom reveled in the attention Naniko lavished on the rabbits. "Thanks," he murmured, dark eyes briefly flitting to the dead creatures. "I'd hoped you'd enjoy them." They were small things, really nothing particularly extravagant, but the New Dawn Gamma found that he was quite fond of the smile that lit up her face, and how it brought joy to her jade green eyes... He found himself staring at her rather intensely, with a far away expression in his own colored pools, his smile shrank to something smaller and more sincere as he considered the woman before her. She was strong and lovely in her own way - not stereotypically beautiful, but her feminine wiles were enhanced by her inherent power. She was the kind of woman Shandom was fascinated by, a girl who could make him pause in his daily search for sexual conquest and carnal satisfaction. With a quick spurt of bravery, Shandom pressed his cool, dark nose to Naniko's cheek, a typical form of greeting where he was from but one that also seemed slightly out of sorts with the more humanized woman. He drank in her scent, deeply memorizing it so he would know exactly what he was looking for the next time he came to Anathema to see his favorite Angela. "I came to see you. It'd been too long," the Gamma murmured, his dark voice low and husky as he spoke rather closely to her ear. But he drew back, and his characteristically goofy grin returned. "And, as per usual, I look ridiculous. I figured you'd be on two legs, so I thought I'd make it easier on us both and shift this way. But, as you're not..." The male paused, and cast his gaze around momentarily to ensure that Naniko was the only presence around. His eyes and nose betrayed nothing sinister, and so the male returned his gaze to the white woman. "Give me a moment." The cracks of bone and the condensing of muscle soon filled the air as Shandom's form curled rather absurdly into itself. The untamed mane that fell around his face retracted backwards, and his opposable thumbs (useful though they were for tying bows and the like) returned to their natural paw-shape. His shifting process was not a long one, and though several minutes passed he found himself quickly in his four legged form. "That's better," the scarred male grinned when the ordeal finished, stretching himself out luxuriously.

Shandom shot Naniko his trademark toothy smile, alabaster tail eagerly beating the wind as he shook himself to free the strange tingling that lingered in his newly compressed muscles. He hadn't gotten a chance to respond to her before he shifted onto four legs, a move that had restored his sense of balance. His four feet felt so much sturdier, his body so much more normal - the Dawn Gamma was meant to exist like this. Whatever strange trick the Gods had pulled on the race of wolves would remain eternally lost on the man. Shandom would never be fully comfortable in his bipedal form and would never resort to living a life that existed solely on two legs. Thumbs were handy, and he liked them for when it came to activities that required a little more dexterity than nature originally intended, but paws would suffice for the most part. He hadn't actually responded to her comments before shifting, so the Gamma chose to begin his speaking there. Then again, Shandom liked to speak whenever given any sort of opportunity, as long as he was comfortable. He had an itching feeling that Dawn members thought him to be reclusive and perhaps a little more cantankerous than he actually was. Certainly, Shandom was not the most forthcoming of wolves, but Naniko wiped away the reservations and brought forth the gregarious creature that now stood before her. Thanks, he grinned, shaking his head one last time to clear himself of the slight buzzing that remained. I try and be as handsome as possible at all times. Never know who you're going to run into. The Gamma was, of course, being slightly sarcastic, though he knew himself to be a handsome specimen. Scarred, but still... The remnants of the handsome Alpha he'd once been lurked beneath his tattered facade. New Dawn is well. I'm the Gamma there now - I suppose that makes sense, considering I'm one of the oldest ones in the pack, and one of few with any leadership experience. Makes me a good adviser, I suppose, he remarked, rather flippantly adding the little tidbit about his past. He regretted it as soon as he said it, dark eyes briefly flitting away from Naniko's as his thoughts were consumed by Etienne. How fares Anathema?

He felt different around Naniko than he did the other women in his pack. It was strange that he was only really acknowledging this as he stood outside her borders, far removed from the beautiful region he called home, but Naniko made his heart beat just a little bit faster, flurry a little more in anticipation of her next words. And - oh, her words! They spilled from her lips easily and with confidence, and they were not twirled with the frivolous niceties so many other women worked so hard to incorporate into their tones. Shandom's dark lips were curved into a contented smile at the mere sound of her words - the Angela relaxed him in a way he hadn't quite been famliar with since losing his Lea. Oh, Lea - his Lea. What would she think of this, the feelings he knew could come to fruition if he spent more time with the pale woman? He knew his father - Farax, not Gyek - would approve of such a match, even if he never truly knew the man. But she was white like him, and had the loveliest green-jade eyes. They could, in time, show up in the Qi'Vaex line. Lea, though, might have felt jealousy at oine point. Perhaps then she would have understood how he felt to see her with Jax, to see her golden eyes transfixed on a male who shone like the sun despite his lowly status in a pack where the balance of power tipped towards Shandom himself. She had never loved him like that, had not loved him because of his stately position - no, even with all his power and knowledge, Lea had never given herself over to him. That was all he'd ever really wanted. But the Gamma could not afford to lose himself in a world that no longer existed, and he slipped back into the life he had created for himself. I suppose they do owe you, he smiled easily, dark voice a shade lower than normal for no reason he could articulate to himself. What would they do without my rugged good looks to get them through the day? At some point I'll have to repay Anathema - pretty ladies should not be the ones doing all the saving. At least, not in the stories I heard as a child. It was true - Etienne had been a very male dominant culture, and though he'd never really thought about it , he supposed the womanizing traits he'd constantly been prone to were evidence of such an upbringing. The Gamma was deeply honored that Naniko would let him into the lands, and he shot her a grateful and earnest smile. I'd love to see it, he said, laughing slightly as he began to trot after her in the general direction of the dens. I'm honored you'd let me see it. Lead the way, Naniko, my friend!
