WC: 467
The half-tailed brute arrived shortly after the other wolves dragging along whatever wood was left of the collapsed ruins he once called a home. The cabin Ty once resided in had been blown over in the storm, and rather than bother to rebuild it, Ty had been dragging over the usable remnants to the ranch for the past few months. He had loved that home and treated it as his old sanctuary, but when it fell in the storm, he knew it was simply the house's time to go.
Today was not about his loss anyway, it was about rebuilding of one of the pack's central pieces, the Three Moons' Ranch. It had been too long since the ranch stood tall and pristine in the fields, and he was more than happy to contribute to the building's reconstruction. The fierce golden-blue eyes of Ty caught the image of his old mentor Jefferson, to which he acknowledged with a slight nod and a soft smile. It had been too long since he had seen his mentor, they had grown apart since he had left and subsequently returned to Phoenix Valley, not to mention that Jefferson had acquired a family he had to worry about. Maybe today would be a day he could work with the old brute and maybe catch up on old times.
However, Ty's train of thought was interrupted by the sounds of conversation nearby. Jace and Ookami were here as well, now busily talking amongst each other about helping out the rebuilding. As usual Ty kept his distance from the others, it had been a few months since his return and Ty still had not got in touch with the new wolves of the pack. Though Ty was born and raised in Phoenix Valley, he now always had the nagging sensation that he was an outsider, simply watching the pack's events instead of really participating. There was a sliver of hope for reintegrating, however, as he had recently talked to Jace over a hunt. Perhaps during the rebuilding of Three Moons' Ranch he could begin to feel like a team player once more.
With a deep breath Ty went straight to work, walking past Jace and Ookami with a nod and a wave, but not much more than that. He threw what wood he had brought with the rest of the pile and hoisted himself up to the roof after Jefferson. "About time we got this done." He murmured to Jefferson with a chuckle as he grabbed some of the stray nails and a hammer "And it's good to finally see your mangled ass around Phoenix Valley again, you old bastard." Another laugh left Ty as he pulled a board to the roof, he figured his previous work with ships would come in handy for rebuilding. "How was your time at AniWaya?"
