Inky, Inky, Inky. 
Thorn never meant to embarrass the black and white male but he still grinned when Ink seemed to be just that. It was hard to give someone a nickname when their name was already so short. He remembered some of the Russian nicknames he had earned back home, none of which where derivations of his actual english name. Inky just rolled off the tongue though, and he tried to apologize. Maybe Ink thought there was somethings wrong with it? He bowed his head briefly and chuckled to himself. "If you're Inky, I'm Thorny and you look more Inky than I do Thorny." Stupid grin. His tail wagged happily.
Inky seemed interested in the brewery idea and Thorn gave a little nod about the welcome packs. His own bottle of wine had long since been drunk and the bottle was now waiting a good cleaning to be filled with mead later on. The needed equipment was around, there were sugar woods that held maple production equipment that could easily be converted and the raw materials were just waiting to be scavenged throughout the lands. All the help would be great, especially when he had big pots of wort bubbling away. Who knew where he'd be in a few years, passing on the information to the younger wolves would be necessary as well. "Brewery is going to be great. Beers, wine, mead, maybe even wonderful, delicious wodka." He licked his lips at the thought and reached to adjust his fedora.
He seemed to have a rather interesting pastime, Thorn wasn't a hunter either frankly, and if he wasn't such a good cook he would have starved a long time ago. Gods protect him if he hadn't been born a Luperci. Now was time to put the horsey away and Thorn couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief. It wasn't that the young horse made him nervous he was just uncomfortable with it being all, horse-like. The tall white Russian followed along behind the other white and black wolf, ears down slightly at the embarrassment. "Nyet. Ridden once, watched them kept but kept my distance. Weird creatures." Not that he wasn't willing to learn, especially if Inky was willing to teach. "Like to learn though."
