Haha yep; seasons are as they are in real life in Nova Scotia! Anyway, done with class so we can get through this quicker. <3
Those mismatched eyes dropped to the ground in respect, and Vesper could feel herself swelling once more with pride. For once, it was not pride for herself—she was arrogant, but not so much as to enjoy lording over others. No, she was proud for the clan that she represented, as she would possibly be the first face of Inferni this tawny and grey girl saw. She knew she wasn’t the most comforting canine to look at with her myriad of scars, rousing suspicion and pity and disgust at worst, but hopefully it would get the point across that this was not a pack to be trifled with. Some others might allow any luperci with a sob story into their lands, but the coyote clan prided itself on strength.
Already, the girl was showing all the signs she needed to, as a loner addressing a pack member on their grounds. The Optio mentally checked that off the list, as well as the other’s purpose and name. “Emmanuelle,” the hybrid murmured, just to get used to the feel of the word in her mouth. She needed to know the names of all the clan, especially in case this one would want to go into the Lumen tier.
“Two questions,” Vesper said then, her tone more brisk. She took a seat between the stakes and rolled her shoulders, posture relaxed but confident. “First off—why Inferni?” Her blue eyes thinned slyly at this question, wondering if the female had done her research or if she truly wanted to join the first pack she came across. There was no wrong answer, however, and even if she hadn’t heard of their so-called reputation, that was only easier for them to help their new positive image. “And secondly,” she went on, “what skills do you possess that would make you an asset to the clan?” No coyote in Inferni was going to feast from the Waste without pulling their weight around, of course.
