Nikki; softened "That must be hard, i have... similar-ish experiences" she said, her voice now truly sad, her tail drooping. Jordi and Dezzy whined. they wanted to howl with sorrow, they would NEVER get over what had happened. she swallowed "it's part of the reason i was so defensive, i guess. that aside, i can't let a strange wolf in the pack, but i would welcome you if you wished to join" she paused "We definitely wouldn't abandon you, not without fair warning, everyone deserves a chance" she said, a small glint in her eyes. She understood that phrase more than anyone.
Dezzy: thinking about her past, a single tear escaped her tightly shut eyes. after a few seconds, she opened her eyes again, she looked to the ground, staring at nothing but everything, her eyes unfocused. because right now she was focusing on not focusing on what happened (heheh, focusing!

)
Jordi stared stonily ahead, he had long since mastered the technique of not letting the past get to him, but not how to let it go. He was sure he would never be able to do that.
