Mᴀᴛᴛʜɪᴀs Tᴏᴍᴀs Eʟᴅᴇʀɪᴄᴋ ➵ {- ♂ / 23 / ♥ / Head Healer /Tagged: Luna / Location: Pack Meeting - }
The tall healer rolled his shoulders and straightened his back as he walked out the door of the infirmary, taking a deep breath as he tried to mimic the authoritative nature that the previous Alpha Russell had commanded naturally. It was a poor imitation, but Matthias fell into the role, a mask of stoic leadership hiding the nerves he felt. He stepped out into the cool afternoon and his pale colored eyes drifted around the small number of wolves that had already gathered, noting the few that hadn't shown. At least all the heads; Luna, Arro and Darius, had arrived and could relay any important information back. As he watched his packmates from his elevated place on the infirmary's porch, Matthias could feel his mood darken some. Snow Creek had lost too many, both from illness and hunters alike, his brother among them. He was drawn thin trying to lead and protect the pack, while simultaneously trying to find a cure to a unknown illness. The next full moon couldn't come soon enough. He was shaken from his mood when a light pressure touched his shoulder, causing the healer to turn towards the source, Luna. He glanced down at her hand confused before meeting her eyes. He lifted his chin slightly as she spoke, trying to maintain his leader façade of passiveness, but as she continued speaking the mask cracked and his bashful nature took over. His grey eyes left her face and his head lowered, suddenly interested in the ground. He was quite for a moment, unsure of how to respond, the small act of support from his most trusted friend shook his core slightly. Ever since Caelan's death, and more recently Greyson's death, he had committed himself to walking alone. It was strange to him to have support from another, especially one that wasn't compelled by shared blood. "...I" Matthias tried to speak, having trouble forming his thoughts into words. He reached out his hand, placing it lightly against Luna's arm as he nodded. "I know. Thank you Luna" he finished, returning her smile with a small one of his own. "The same goes for you, alright? ... I don't leave the infirmary much these days. You're always welcomed".
Sᴏʀᴇɴ Eʟɪᴊᴀʜ Cᴀssᴇʟ ➵ {- ♂ / 24 / ♥ / Scout /Tagged: Cleo / Location: Pack woods - }
As she pulled him to his feet, Soren noticed a small burning in his palm, he had scraped the skin raw from sliding back against the uneven and rocky ground. It wasn't a large injury, the redness of his skin making it look far worse. "Yeah, I'm fine" he spoke as he glanced himself over, his hands the only damaged part of him. "No blood, no fowl" he added, glancing towards his pack mate. He was hoping to convince her to continue on her way quickly. "Darius changed them this morning" He again lied, glancing back behind him, relieved for a moment that no one had seen him leave the storeroom. He tensed slightly, green eyes darting over to the fellow scout when she questioned him about the backpack, if she looked inside it, she surely would notice the stolen items. "Hm?..." Soren questioned as he tried to think of a lie to draw attention way from the bag "Oh, probably just a water bottle. Must have landed on it when I fell" he spoke, brushing some of the mud off.
