Get with me if you want to move up in rank. I'm going to change up the pack tasks for a little change of pace.
Congratulations to Adrian on her promotion to Governess. She will handle the guidance and teaching of our young pups in Iromar.
If you have a ^ next to your name, that means you're up for promotion so see me or send me a message on Discord so we can see where to move you. All others interested in specializing or getting a rank, let me know so we can figure out how to make that happen.
The pack board has been updated. If you wanted to remain a member, let me know either on here or Discord and I'll get you back on the board. Otherwise, let's have a thread!
I know I had a couple replies for the training with Spirane so I will be starting that thread soon. Stay tuned!
I am still working on an alliance with Diveen and Asteraia so stay tuned. If you have any information or would like to help, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas to promote activity within the pack, also, let me know. I am open for plots and such! Meanwhile, thank you all for your continued support of the pack.
Kindness is Magic IP: 174.59.211.44 Posted on December 31, 2017 at 11:28:17 PM by Magpie
Magpie knew a demand when she heard one and she wasn’t about to try and wiggle her way out of answering. Still, she was hesitant to get anyone else in trouble. She wanted to be liked here, if this was to be her home. At the moment, until Pine made her decision, it was the only one she had. For a moment it looked as though she might abstain from answering, then she sighed and shifted her weight uneasily. ”Brown and white, black face….white markings.” Truly she didn’t think the older female would’ve hurt her, but her words had been harsh and more than a little uncalled for, given Magpie’s smaller size and age. ”It’s fine, Zanon, honest. I think she was just doing her job. I don’t want to cause trouble...I just want--I just don’t want to upset anyone.”
She didn’t want to be that wolf that started drama or that people whispered about. Her foster mother and half-sister were like that. They craved turmoil for whatever reason. Sometimes she wondered if it didn’t sustain them better than food and water, with how much turmoil they stirred up. Magpie, in contrast, thrived on kindness. She did for others with no expectation of the favor being returned simply because it was the right thing to do. She did not complain because there was always someone who had it worse off than she did, even on days when she was pretty sure that wasn’t the case. Living the life she had, she had come to recognize that kindness was something that was sorely lacking in the world which made her even more determined to continue putting it out into the world.
Anxiously Mag watched Zanon, a little nervous about how he would react to her admission. She supposed her fear of not belonging was silly but she’d not felt as though she’d belonged anywhere in a very long time. It was a faded memory from shortly before her father’s death. She wanted that again, with all her heart, so much so that the thought of having that here was almost more terrifying than the thought that she wouldn’t be allowed to stay. As Zanon’s expression changed, becoming harsher though not quite angry, Magpie froze, not even daring to breathe. When he finally spoke, her mouth fell open with a puff of air.
Pale, mottled eyes stared with wonder as she struggled to pay attentions to the words that had followed his first four. Her heart swelled, cracking the protective walls that she’d erected around it. If she was forced to leave...Zanon would leave with her. It was the kindest thing he’d done yet and before she could contain her reaction, she lurched forward shoved her head, face first, into his chest, tail hanging low and wagging steadily as she bounced ever so slightly between her two front paws, a sure sign that she was happy. ”Thank you Zanon...for finding me.” Her last few words were muffled as she nuzzled her face against his chest but his words had given her a bit more confidence in her situation. Even if this wasn’t to be her home, she wouldn’t be alone.
When Zanon turned and started off towards where she could only assume Pine was, she took a deep breath and trotted after him, her long legs catching her up so that she fell in beside him, her nose level with his ribcage. She was still nervous of course, but not fearful. In that moment she knew that she could never be mad at Zanon for leading her away from her old life. Not when he was the first to say something so supportive and kind in over a year. The last thing she wanted, though, was for him to have to leave his home, so she would do whatever Pine required of her to stay...so Zanon could stay, for she believed that he would leave.
