- Brooklyn D'Angelo - 03-07-2009 [html] Brooklyn had been outside, playing by herself in the snow. It wasn't as cold as in the previous days and she made sure she was in the sun, the rays warming her white coat. She had decided to try and make snowballs with her nose, so she diligently pushed the snow around, futilely attempting some round shape. Sighing, she sat down in the snow. This would all be so much easier if she could shift. She'd been thinking more and more about it, hoping to somehow make it like a contest between her and her siblings. There wouldn't be a prize. Or maybe there would be. A snowball. Yeah, that would work out nicely. The best thing, though, would be to just try and get on two legs. Ever since Halifax she'd been more and more curious about what it was like. Jazper was so nimble and Savina looked so nice when she shifted. Brooklyn wanted in on the fun, too! The call almost went over her head, but she perked her ears and listened. Savina was calling a meeting? They'd never had a meeting. Not one the pup could remember, anyway. Maybe it was only for adults? She titillated for a moment before dashing towards the house, her run stirring up clouds of snow behind her. She stopped when she reached the porch, to both catch her breath and shake the crystals of ice off her fur. Again the doubt nagged at her. Would she be welcome there? Well, only one way to find out, really. Going into the living room, she smiled to see Savina there (was her belly bigger than last time) and... Anu! "Momma!" Running towards her mother, Brooklyn nudged her side, wagging her tail all the while. If Momma said she could stay, then she would. For the moment, though, she sat down on her belly, waiting to see who else would join them. - Naniko D'Angelo - 03-07-2009 [html] It was true that the more things changed, the more they stayed the same. Naniko was beginning to see a pattern in her life that followed that rule--things did change, for good and for bad, but they didn't affect her quite as much as they had in the past. It felt like all of the changes just melted together to make something that did stay the same. Relatively. There was still the pack and her family, that would never change. They had changed from Twilight Vale to Crimson Dreams, but it was still their pack and they were still her family. She came out of the cave and into the sunlight, shaking some snow out of her white fur. The pretty necklace that Jazper had given her sat in the middle of her chest, reflecting the rays back into the surrounding wooded area. There were a few wolves already gathered for the meeting and she joined their numbers, taking a spot near Brooklyn and Anu. Things with her and Anu were changing too, and she wasn't sure where they were going exactly, but that was alright. There was more important things that needed to be announced today, things that the pack needed to know. - Leroy - 03-08-2009 [html]<style type="text/css">.february24leroy b {color:#abb291;} .february24leroy a {color:#abb291; font:9pt Georgia;} .february24leroy a:hover {color:#fff;}</style> http://sixpop.com/files/402/february24% ... 20prof.png) bottom no-repeat #434038; color:#898883; font:9pt Georgia; line-height:1.1em; padding:1.0em; padding-bottom:21.0em; text-align:justify;"> [/html]
Leroy had been spending a large amount of time lately in his home, he was even starting walks along a patrol. Though he would only say it's because he is bored, or has nothing better to do; but he knows it's really because he was starting to become attached here. Leroy was near the caves when the howl reached his ears, flickering them about his red eyes followed as well as his body changed direction towards the call. Breaking away from this 'boredom' patrol the husky started into a trot as his healed body moved much better then in had almost a month ago, no more scabs or bleeding but a few new black scars. Soon enough his patterned body slowed to a stop outside the building that held voices and scents within, he never liked been crowded but he hasn't been spending much time with any pack members since the fight. Sighing Leroy hoped for the best as his paws carried him up to the porch as he lowered his head before stepping through the doorway, his red eye caught four others but of only one he has meet. It was the black female whom accepted him. Slowly moving forward Leroy felt a bit over whelmed as he found a spot to himself, though close enough he can see everyone and hear. Passing a nod to each new face he kept a small smiled as his tail curled around his legs as he moved to a sit. - Kansas Sadira - 03-09-2009 [html]

WC: 300+ Times in Crimson Dreams were never changing, but always moving it seemed for the young buck. His upbeat personality remained in tact through the past year as he had grown into the warrior he was today. He has once told the leader of the now long since gone pack, Jaded Shadows, that he would grow to be like his alpha father: large and strong. Comparing his current size with his passed father he has surpassed that goal. However, the wolfess had told him that he should not with to be anyone but himself, and this was precisely who he was. He was not completely an Angel or a Knight. His parents had left him as their child but his teachers took place in the Rhiannon and Sawtooth kin. The midnight warrior was a son of alphas, of warriors, hunters and healers. Regarding himself in him bedroom mirror he saw himself full grown and an adult, ready to be himself. Large black ears perked with the new comforting sound of Savina's call. A gathering of his pack was starting. Drying himself off he shook the remaining water that clung to his thinning black pelt. The warmer weather was coming and with that, shedding. Tossing on his familiar beige cargo shorts he leisurely walked down the old stairs and padded into the front room of the manor. Stopping his amber eyes moved from packmate to packmate. His gold orbs landed on the ruby necklace that clung to his loving white alpha. His white teeth broke past his lips in a knowing smile. Gliding to Kansas and Savina he nodded with bright eyes, pups were definitely on the way for the two. Glancing to the newcomer he knew as Leroy he quickly took a seat beside him flashing him a smile. Last, but not least, he saw Brooklyn's white figure and was reminded of their trip to Halifax with a silent chuckle he winked, their little secret. - Ehno Marino - 03-11-2009 [html] http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j40/k ... ump/02.png); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> [/html]
The Italian boy was curled up on his bed, dozing lightly in an afternoon nap. He had woken up earlier than usual that morning for a routine patrol of the borders. There was nothing out of the ordinary to be found, but Ehno had still entertained himself with a bit of exploring as he so often does. He returned earlier that afternoon, climbing the stairs up to his room where he straightened things up a bit. Satisfied with his work, the male had shifted back down to his four-legged form and hopped onto his bed, determined to rest for a few minutes. Unintentionally he drifted into a lengthier slumber than he had intended. The howl from just outside caused him to stir slightly. He slowly opened his eyes, lids still burdened with residual sleep. For a moment he almost ignored it, wanting to simply curl up in the warmth of his bed and drift back into sleep. Then his mind finally processed the situation, and he sat up rather suddenly. Amber eyes glanced around the room for a moment as he realized just how late it had gotten. He muttered a soft curse to himself as he leapt down from the bed. What was it that Savvy had wanted? A meeting, wasn’t it? Ehno hurried down the stairs, taking in the sight of the pack mates that had already arrived, the majority of them quite familiar to him. He gave a quick nod in greeting to each of the gathered. He couldn’t help but smile when he saw his sister, thinking of the new lives stirring within her belly. The chocolate-hued male took a seat next to the father-to-be. Kansas’s excitement at this new development was as clear as the smile on his face. - Haven Aatte - 03-11-2009 [html] http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c13/v ... ground.png); margin-left:103px; text-align:justify; padding:10px; color:#225000; line-height:12px;font-family:verdana;padding-top:5px;">300+ The Aatte child had been lounging around outside. For once his energy level was pretty average, so he was content to just lay around and observe things. Laying on his back he stared up at the clouds, imagining their shapes into different creatures and objects. Much to his delight there had been one that looked like a knight and a dragon doing battle. He grinned up at the sky and stretched his long limbs into the air. The sun had finally come out after ages and ages and while it was still cold the sun made everything better. It warmed his burnt orange and ivory body and his eyes closed in comfort. Bi-colored ears perked up when he heard a call sound throughout the territory. It was Savina and she was calling a meeting. Oh boy! He had never been to a meeting before! What would it be like he wondered. Would they talk about important stuff? Surely they would or why else call a meeting. There must be some big news and that thought excited him even more. Though he laid in his warm little spot in the snow for a few moments more before standing up and heading towards the house. When Haven nosed open the door (that was so much easier now!) he smiled at everyone who had beat him here. Jade eyes swept over all those assembled. Savina was at the head and she had a big round belly. What was that about? Was she eating too much food? The rest of her still looked the same though. How strange. There were his mommas and Brooklyn! And uncle Kansas and Ehno and Jazper and then some funny looking guy he didn't know. His markings and tail reminded him of that guy Leland he had met a while ago. Tail wagging he went over to sit by his mothers and sister giving each of them a lick. - Salem D'Angelo - 03-12-2009 [html] http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj31 ... rp/t37.png); background-position: bottom center; background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> _____Salem had found himself a little nook through the woods that had served just right to hide away in. He had been exploring it thoroughly, lost in his own world and weaving an adventure that he hoped one day to explain out and share with his siblings. But that wasn't his only hobby, as he had long been teaching himself how to scout things. Hare tracks were by far the most familiar things he knew and by following them to a perfect T, Salem had familiarised himself with several of the warrens within the depths of the territory woodland. _____But his exploration for the day would have to be cut short, as the curt howl from Savina snapped his brain from pretending to be a survival expert to what he really was. A little boy still beneath the watchful eye of his parents and now, expected to attend the meeting that was being called. Salem steadily made his way back to the mansion with haste, though arrival behind the others who were naturally much closer or diligent to her call. He picked out his siblings and his mothers from the group, as well as the familiar pack mates that he did not converse with often (if at all) as he made his way through the interior of the mansion. Greeting Haven with a friendly nip and flashing Brooklyn a smile, he extended said smile with a wave of his tail onto his parents and finally, Savina. _____The ebony leader had a certain aura about her that was both evident physically and figuratively, but the boy could not place what it was about her that was different at first. But as he settled himself in with the others, it appeared before him like magic; the obvious swell of her middle was rather hard to miss with her slender frame. His shyness kicked in and he dared not to ask her how she was, his over-active imagination pondering whether or not she was ill. It jittered his nerves and he gave a wayward glance to the other adults, who didn't seem so concerned (quite the opposite, really). So he smothered his concern for the moment where it began, though it retained its place in the depths of his eyes for a moment more. Maybe she was just fat and happy and about to tell them where she had found a meal to make them just the same as she was? _____He quite liked the sound of something to eat. - Mati Church - 03-12-2009 [html] http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j40/k ... ump/05.png); background-position: top center; background-repeat: no-repeat;">
[/html] - Moose the Wild - 03-12-2009 So long he had been away. At first, he had been captivated by his own thoughts, taking to late wandering walks through the lands. From there, he progressed ever out, into the neutral lands and beyond. It wasn't long before Moose had realized he had traveled too far. Once more he found himself lost. However, this time would be different. He had a pack; he once more belonged, and he was determined not to lose what he had sought for so long. Things would be different here, he had resolved that once they had accepted him. No more had he stepped into the pack boundaries again, a little haggard and lean from his journey than a howl met his ears. Weary paws carried him quickly over the pack's terrain until he arrived at the meeting place. Several wolves (both those he knew and some he didn't) were already gathered. Ashamed at his absence, the Wild took a seat towards the outside, awaitting commencement. - Legion - 03-17-2009 Legion was still so green to Crimson Dreams, still exploring the land, getting to know it and the wolves ensconced within. He'd found the old church and quite liked relaxing there, as well as the old building harboring a jukebox, which was a thing of great interest to him. Human things fascinated him, and music, especially, was one of the things that humankind had made that was unique to them. Something that some Luperci were now gifted with the ability to make, should the desire be there. The white wolf had actually been in his optime form, keeping more to himself for the day and toying with the jukebox, tail wagging to the beat of the skipping tracks recorded in its memory, when a familiar call pierced the still air. He remembered it only because of his recent meeting with Savina, and her voice, like any lupine voice, was distinctive. The call, too, was one you couldn't mistake...a pack rally. His brows lifted in a gesture of curiosity. He had yet to experience a pack gathering within Crimson Dreams, and was most looking forward to meeting the rest of the pack that dwelled here. He had yet to encounter most of them, though looked forward to seeing Soran again, whom had warmly accepted him into this place. He actually quite liked the dark fae, and she would be one of the only 2 familiar faces he'd find among the many. He made his way with haste towards the origin of Savina's call, knowing he neared when not only the scent, but eventually, the sight of a large group of wolves touched his senses. The ebony pack leader was at the head of the room, looking very regal even with the swelling bellyfull of pups making itself obvious. He could never understand childbirth, thanking whatever God or gods there were that he was born male so as not to have to go through with that burden and the pain that came at the end of it. But in all truth pups were one of the few things in life he considered a true miracle, and his one weakness, where his kinder self could be bared, was in raising them. He looked forward to the birth, but for now, banished the thought from his mind as he slowly made his way among unfamiliar faces before finally seating himself. - Savina Marino - 03-17-2009 [html]
- Naniko D'Angelo - 03-17-2009 [html] She didn't know everything and couldn't be everywhere. Savina was very sharp, and kept her updated on the things that she missed. Naniko had never thought that things would turn out this way with Savina, could never have known that the wolf she'd helped nearly a year before would be sitting beside her now as one of her most trusted friends and advisors. She had not known the dark female for as long as she had known some of the others, both in and out of Crimson Dreams, but Savina had proven herself time after time after time. She trusted her with her life and would not deny her what she had so rightly earned. The packmembers filed in and took spots to hear what the two leaders had to say. As her children came she gave each a nudge, standing and going to the front of the group when Savina was finished speaking. They had discussed what they wanted to cover in the meeting, and she'd gone over everything but one topic. "We had one more announcement; a change in leadership. If she will accept it, Savina and I would like to welcome Anu into the leadership role of Brigadier General." She looked to Anu, then to the faces all around them. "I hope that you will give her the same opportunity to earn your respect as you have given Savina and myself." - Anu - 03-18-2009 [html]

Sitting still Leroy never moved, never budged from the spot he had found for himself as his red eyes watched flowed of pack mates. Breathing Leroy didn't want or wish to bring anymore trouble to himself, it was enough that he was placed with the rank worm. Ears flickered with his thoughts as the large black male from before appeared walking in with the same good nature he had seen before when he was accepted, red eyes watched the male with the slightest smile as Jazper took a sit besides him. Leroy wasn't sure if the black male was aware of the trouble he had gotten himself into these past weeks but Leroy didn't think much about, if the whole pack named him a terrible wold then so be it. "Hey Jazper.." Th husky's voice was simple and mellow, the last thing he really wants to bring more attention to himself as the meeting with the leaders. Watching more and more wolves fill the room Leroy simple watched as his eyes drifted to Savina, his form much rounder them when they have first meet; and her mind seemed with much distaste for him now. The room filled with words and matters that he was becoming more use to, some being promoted and the news or pups, along with..other packs. Leroy's face show nothing but seemed the same calm one as Savina's green eyes placed on him for a mere moment. Deep down the patterned male was very happy that the leaders didn't hold much attention about here, or voice much about him and the events that was taken. - Kansas Sadira - 04-04-2009 [html]
[/html] - Jazper Rhiannon-Knight - 04-05-2009 [html] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/ ... banner.jpg); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> WC: +300 The midnight Knight watched from his seat as more pack members showed up: Ehno, the pups, Moose, and a white stranger. His amber eyes stared at Naniko's four children. It was amazing ow in such a short amount of time they had turned into young adults. His insides twisted as he thought of the day they would be able to walk around and learn to fight on two legs. All of the children had their unique personality to show to the world. However, Jazper was yet to see the second boy, Salem, be as outspoken as his siblings. Looking around once more the giant frowned. Where had Garnet run off too? She had seemed distracted the further in her pregnancy she became but he had at least thought she'd have the respect for their leaders to come to the meeting. Naniko and Savina had never acted grandiloquent in the time he had served them. His ears perked at the quiet greeting from the husky he had helped Savina welcome into the pack. Flashing a smile he patted the male on the back “Hey Leroy. How's pack life been going?” He questioned in a quiet but encouraging tone. Jazz took pride in himself for being an open person for his packmates to talk too. He couldn't imagine life as dull. His attention was drawn too Savina as she began to make the announcements. At the thought of hunting more his body leaned forward in anticipation. The conversation turned serious as she discussed pack relations and looked to Leroy. The black male cocked his eyebrow to Leroy wondering what had happened. Switching attention to Naniko the young male resisted the need to congratulate Anu vocally. Instead he just flashed her a smile and gave her two thumbs up from the other side of the room. - Ehno Marino - 04-05-2009 [html] http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j40/k ... ump/02.png); background-position: bottom center; background-repeat: no-repeat;"> [/html]
Ehno was glad to find that Kansas seemed to like him. The Sadira boy was part of his family now, and he thought it was important that they felt as such. It meant a lot to him that his sister's mate was comfortable around him. The chocolate-hued male returned his smile, remaining silent as the rest of the pack shuffled in to hear the news. The rest of Naniko's children wandered in, followed soon after by Moose and a man he had yet to meet. It wasn't long until Savina began the meeting, sharing news of the puppies she and Kansas were expecting. The soon-to-be Uncle couldn't help but smile, his tail happily swishing back and forth behind him. He whispered a quick "Congrats" to his brother-in-law. He could tell that the young man was excited to become a father. Savina then made a mention of inter-pack relations, pointedly eyeing the lone husky in their midst as she did so. A few of the gathered glanced toward the crimson eyed man, each silently wondering what he might have done to have prompted such a look from Savina. Ehno's own gaze drifted toward him for but a moment, amber eyes simply curious. But he brought his attention back to his sister soon enough, listening intently to the rest of her words. Then came Naniko's turn to speak, announcing the promotion of Anu into the leadership. Amber gaze traveled to the silvery female, a smile on his face. "Very nice. Congratulations, Anu." He didn't know her as well as some of the other pack members, but he was certain that she would make a fine addition to their leadership. |
