The Good That Won't Come Out

Happy birthday to Nay Nayyyy :] Also, that table is hard for me to read, Matt ^^; wc: 650


Gideon had been feeling pretty down on himself ever since the last pack meeting, keeping to himself and doing little projects to keep himself busy. He was planning on helping Saul with his cabin as soon as the male asked for his help, having offered it at their coming-of-age celebration, but hadn't heard from him yet about it. He wanted to show that he could really do some good in the pack and that he did have a clear purpose and could do something right. Maybe he wasn't so good at hunting now, but with time and practice he would be able to hunt just as well in his lupus form as he could in his optime. That was a goal for him.


Layla had come to live with him and the pups in the house, and he saw her on a daily basis now. The older female had been one of his first friends in the pack, having helped teach him how to fish as a young pup, and he was determined to pay her back and help her out in any way that he could. He considered her to be one of his closest friends and a mentor to him and had many day to day conversations with her, often speaking to her about his feelings about various topics. It was nice to have someone to talk to and he genuinely enjoyed having her around.


He was already heading toward her house, four paws padding out a rhythm on the frozen soil, when he heard her howl. It didn't sound too urgent and the boy didn't hurry too much more than he already had. She wanted company, perhaps? Gideon wouldn't mind being the one to provide that. She had seemed to like the gift that he'd given her, and he had decided to give her many more in the future because of that reaction. He had many interesting things from the city that he had picked up, thinking that she might like them, and he'd give them to her over time.


The large black and gray tinged male made his way toward where the house had sounded before, realizing that he was going in the direction of the garden that he had discovered with the black and white female. Why was she calling people to the garden? Curious, he sped up a little so that he could get there faster. He could smell a kill, food, and the scent of Saluce as he approached the tall walls of their secret garden. Before, all that had been available for entrances to the garden had been a small hole...but now the doors were flung wide open. Had he even realized that the place had doors to it? He guessed that the humans must have had some way to get into it when they had built it all that time ago, but hadn't thought on that too much.


Their secret garden was a beautiful place. He realized that they had given it an official name, the Veiled Gardens, but to him it would always just be their own private, secret place. Even if the doors were open to all, he'd still consider it that. It was the place that he had spent most of his time as a pup, romping around in the flowers and plants. They still remained, frozen in ice, the crystals on them glimmering in the light of the fire that Nayru had built.

The scent of food made his mouth water and he licked his lips as he reached Saluce and Nayru. Gideon didn't greet Nayru as he usually did, didn't nuzzle or prod her with his nose, instead standing and giving her a small, private smile. "Hey" He said simply. "What's going on?" She had a nice fire going. What was the usually anti-social Nayru planning? He was interested to find out, that was for sure!
