A Tale of Two Packs: Sky-Dogs (RP Thread)

(Ack! Sorry! I read the quote marks different. My bad!)

FANG | Warrior/Sky-Dog | Starris | Tagging: Cobalt, Octavia, Acero | Location: Starris Meadow


Fang would have argued, for he had no love for Cobalt, but he dared not. Cobalt was as known for his cold reasoning as his littermate was for his cruelty. Instead, he fixed his yellowish blue eyes on the she-wolf for a brief moment, an almost apologetic look in his eyes, but he spoke not, and glanced at Acero when the black Warrior stepped forward, emotion unreadable flaring in his eyes and across his face. While Fang could not tell what it was exactly, he suspected either protectiveness, or anger, or perhaps even both, and stopped him. There was no time nor space for such. A mix of the two could very well lead to a fight, to further provocation.

"Mealtime isn’t for a couple hours yet. It’d be good to get acquainted with your new surroundings, I reckon. Whatever works best for you." Cobalt fixed his dark blue eyes on her, tearing his gaze from the other two Warriors. He had been there a long time. He knew the area as well as he’d once known his own territory in life. A sad thought, but he’d come to terms with it, as had every long term resident here. "I can show you the territory and give you the options most Sky-Dogs don’t even know are possible."

(No worries)

OTAVIA suddenly felt nervous around Cobalt, but he was in Starris, so he couldn’t be that bad. “I’m sorry for the fight” she mumbled softly to Fang and Acero, her eyes settling on Acero for just a moment longer. She felt bad now, and didn’t want to walk away but she was afraid that they would... want her to walk away. She sighed heavily.

ACERO | Warrior/Sky Dog | Starris | Tagging: Octavia, Cobalt, Fang | Location: Meadow


"It’s okay," Acero promised. "Things aren’t at their best right now, obviously, and understandably. Nobody can fault you," he added. It was only natural that stress and anxiety would have a large hand in one's mind at the moment. "You go on for your little tour, I’ll see if I can catch something good for you to come back to, okay?"


COBALT | Former F-Pack Beta/Sky-Dog | Starris | Tagging: Octavia, Acero, Fang | Location: Starris Meadow


Cobalt wasn’t oblivious to the sense of unease. He closed his eyes for just a brief moment. "I see. Is it my heritage that worries you? Although I am brother to Max, and son of Alpha Cinder, I do not share their hearts. I’m sure any wolf who was alive in my time could tell you the same," he assured her.

OCTAVIA glanced towards Cobalt. “No, it’s not that. It's just that this whole place is just... a new experience for me. It’s all very strange” she admitted to the wolf. She shivered and stood up, looking over at Acero. “Oh course! That would be great” she said to him softly.

ACERO | Warrior/Sky Dog | Starris | Tagging: Octavia, Cobalt, Fang | Location: Meadow


Acero managed a small smile. "You go on and enjoy your tour then." He stepped forward and brushed his muzzle against hers lightly before pulling back and gently nudging Fang, who quickly gathered the two little she-pups who were still squabbling and playfighting on the ground not far away, then they walked towards the forest a few paces and simply seemed to melt right into the trees.

"That’s understandable," Cobalt agreed. "To suddenly find oneself up here can be...quite a shock to the system if one hadn’t already been anticipating death," he pointed out. He swished his tail on the grass below them, sending a light ripple through the green blades. "Come on. I’ll show you to the river first. That water has some incredible healing properties. You should be back to your usual strong self now, when you were at your best, but if there’s any lingering pains or aches, a few drops of that water should fix them right up again."

[poppyxoxo]

OCTAVIA took a deep, trying to get herself back together. Something stirred within her chest as Acero brushed his muzzle against her, but all she could do was nod and smile. She glanced at Cobalt, her face slowly settling back into a neutral expression. “The river... that’s fine! That sounds good actually” she stated happily, swishing her tail. She looked after Acero for a few moments.

COBALT | Former F-Pack Beta/Sky-Dog | Starris | Tagging: Octavia, Acero, Fang | Location: Starris Meadow


Cobalt caught the young Warrior's eye, following her pale gaze back to where the four wolves had just disappeared. Did something stir? Then the large black wolf straightened himself up again. The former Fire Warrior dipped his head to Octavia ever so faintly. "Follow me."

With that, Cobalt set a leisurely trotting pace, turning down a couple winding dirt paths, the ground smoothed out below them from all the wolves who had trod on this ground to come to the calm, flowing waters of the river of healing.

(can I bring in the pup soon? I can most likely make its form and while I'm doing that I can then make a form for the pup I'm playing from Athena's litter)

Octavia suddenly felt very calm as she wandered through the grass with Cobalt, a sense of ease washing over her. Her gaze travelled over the landscape, a content feeling settling over her and into her chest. She sighed happily, her tail now flickering.

[sunhorsestar]

OOC: Ah man, you don’t need to make a form. I said already you don’t need to make forms for Sky-Dogs.

"See? This place isn’t so bad. There could be worse things after death, huh?" There was a note of joking in Cobalt's tone, but it wasn’t completely wrong. "Over there is the river. Do you have any aches or pains left over?" He asked, tilting his head to the side, then glancing at the sparkling water ahead of them.

[poppyxoxo]

(k)

Octavia turned her head to look at Cobalt as she walked, her fur being brushed by the long grass on one of her sides. She smiled slightly at the joke from the male wolf. "That's exactly right. And no I don't-" she began to say, but perked her ears up for a few minutes. She heard a little squeak coming from somewhere in the distance. "Did you hear that?" she asked Cobalt.
