Summer has arrived. The world has been well at peace, and others seem to be trying to take advantage. They believe we are lazy and complacent. We are no such thing. Remain vigilante, friends and family. Give your congratulations to Maiko. She has been promoted to Blizzard; she earned it. We also have an activity check going. Please reply so I can make adjustments accordingly. Check will go for an entire month so we can hopefully capture everyone. As always, if you have need of me, do not hesitate to find me. -- Arturio ‡ = Pregnant | ☓ = Stolen | ♦ = Captive | ★ = Promotion Pending | Away | ▼ = Assassin | Δ = Apprentice
IP: 208.123.1.104 Posted on September 23, 2013 at 05:11:40 PM by sleekwing  i don't ever want to let you down, Her comment merely heightened his anticipation, his nerves prickling slightly beneath his skin and his fur bristling with eagerness. Concentrating on her, he willed all of his senses to come to his aide so that he would be prepared for whatever she might throw at him. As she lowered herself, Sleekwing assumed a defensive posture. He, too, lowered his frame closer to the earth, taking a few measured steps forward in a half circle away from her so that they almost resembled a yin-yang symbol. It was hardly within his imagination to fathom putting tooth or claw against her beautiful frame. But mock battles and spars were perfectly possible without causing your partner harm. Although they differed in size and build to a certain degree, it was important to learn the tactics that wolves of varying sizes might implement in battle, so that you might see it coming rather than being blindsided. Where he was built thick, she was lean. Though she stood at a slighter height than him, he knew full well there were plenty of other wolves that were larger than him. Perhaps he could implement whatever moves she used on him on wolves that exceeded him in height and weight.
When she leaned forward, his ears flicked backwards in a sign of slight apprehension. His movement was stopped as he was drawn to her, leaning into her as their eyes locked. There was something there, behind those wide, beautiful eyes. At the last second, he realized how foolish he was being. A decoy! She lunged then, and he only just had the wherewithal to throw his own body forward and up to meet her. But she had the element of surprise, and as he made to rear up onto his own hind limbs her forelegs wrapped around his neck and just as quickly threw him away. His shoulders had been pinned by her grasp, so he had been unable to make any attempt to grab back at her. But from his position, rocked back on his hind legs, when she pushed him away his whole body pivoted and he landed squarely on his forelimbs. Deciding it was best not to remain standing still, he continued his circling motion in the direction she had shoved him. He picked up a smooth jog, rounding to face her almost head on as she darted towards him again. Luckily his continuous motion had kept her from getting behind him entirely. Instead her head dipped beneath the underarm of his front leg. She shoved upwards, and instead of fighting the pressure, he moved with it and popped up onto his hind legs once more. Twisting his body towards her, he attempted to place one foreleg over her shoulders and the other under the lowest portion of her neck. If he were able to assume such a position, he would touch his nose between her shoulder blades, indicating that that was where he would attack. If he was unable to fully grasp the position, he would mimic her prior move and use his forelimbs to push her away from him and free himself of her before landing on all fours and once more taking up a circling motion. The whole situation seemed to move in slow motion to Sleekwing. Each movement was calculated and carried out in a dance like performance. His eyes never left her, studying every movement she made. This was both for the betterment of himself as a warrior, and also because he just wanted to get to know her. He wanted to be able to recognize the sound of her paws pressing against the earth, the feel of how the air moved when she passed him, how each strand of her pilose black fur laid against her body when she was calm or prickled when she was angry. It was an intimate affair, and Sleekwing wasn’t sure he ever wanted this lesson to end. sleekwing
