Divided We Stand (A Packs Roleplay, OPEN and ACCEPTING)

[The Royal Mirage]

((It'll be over by the morning, but everything's gonna be nice and soggy ^^ I'm thinking the storm was raging well into the early morning hours, but will have passed by the time wolves start waking up again))

The brute's words settled strangely in her stomach; Sparrow felt a small blossom of disappointment at his reply, for surely he had so much potential. He seemed as if he took in every detail of his surroundings, including the slender huntress herself; it had been a long time since she'd been compared to a bird, and again she found herself flustered by such silken compliments, her lighthearted teasing doused by her sudden disbelief. His words were so poetic she had nearly believed them herself. "Chief," she admonished gently, tilting her head towards him in question as her keen grey eyes met his single moon touched one.

((Ahhhh I don't have time for anything, I'm sorry))

[The Royal Mirage]

At the cautious reprimand in Sparrow's tone, Amos straightened up, brows raised. Had his tone not set her at ease? Or did she believe he was lying? Either option made the brute backtrack mentally, quickly scouting over their conversation and trying to find something at fault, though nothing seemed to fit. "I'm only speaking the truth," he reassured eventually, not knowing anything better to say. He had truly wished he could paint the angelic scene she had presented moments ago, and he was honestly no good with delicate things in his paws. Her disbelief had him wondering why she would have any inklings of him being dishonest - then again, in her eyes he had blatantly lied about his name... though to him he much preferred that Sparrow would know him as Chief, and not the troubled soul his namesake portrayed.

((Tis fine, just glad to have something to occupy my thoughts right now))

[Nellas]

Sparrow, with an internal sigh, gave Chief a reassuring smile; she would accept his words, if not his compliments- they confused her. And it would not do to put off a new member of the pack; that was not her intent. Instead she lifted her gaze to the stars as her paws walked in mud, a faint haze of leftover clouds overshadowing their pale light. "Have you found a den yet?" the huntress asked, feeling a slight breeze sweep through her as yet drying fur. "Or have you just been, exploring?" Her words softened at the second question, recalling his poetic description of the mountains. It made her want to rediscover her own homeland; it had been long since Sparrow had thought anything of the familiar territory as artful as that; instead it was the forests to the west and the shores to the east that attracted her wondering attention. Though she knew that her heart belonged to the mountains, the little dove wondered too what the other territories might hold.

Finch felt the absence of her warmth pressed up again him acutely, but it didn't dim his little ditty of a smile as he finally released her, shoulders tingling faintly. Faint amusement lingered still in his expression, tinged with a sort of resigned regret, as he could not escape the climbing moon. "I'd hate to keep you parents waiting any longer," Finch said ruefully, running a paw in an almost bashful motion through the back of his ruff. "Be sure to stop by sometime to show me with the finished project, though," with those words his grin had returned, looking forwards to seeing the finished craft as he always did; he and Opal had collaborated in the past once or twice, but he was especially proud of his work today.

Amos had to bite his tongue as the beautiful fae next to him asked if he had found a den already, holding back the lewd comments that flooded his mind at the possible implications. Just because he was a gentleman didn't mean he wasn't prone to such thoughts... Clearing his throat and, thus, his mind, the mahogany baron gave a crooked grin in Sparrow's direction, though keeping his eyes forward so as not to trip on the rough footing he had been memorizing for the past few hours. "I've found a den for myself, not to worry," he explained, though was doubtful Sparrow was truly worried about whether or not he had his own sleeping quarters - it had been a polite inquiry, nothing more. "It's a bit of a fixer-upper, I probably should have been cleaning it out instead of following my paws on their late night wanderings."

"Finch.." she giggled as the brute attempted to shoo her back to her impatiently waiting parents, lightly caressing the box of tiny rings with a single dull claw as her magenta orbs flicked up to his own amber. "You haven't told me how much I owe you," she reminded in an amused whisper, trying and failing to hold back the remnants of her joy. Perhaps it had simply been too long since Opal had embraced someone - they say physical contact is good for the heart after all - and was feeling the after effects all the more acutely.

((Ugh, I have a terrible headache, please excuse the responses))

[Nellas]

((I'm so sorry for not responding, I'm extremely stressed out and I just can't write well right now. Once this week ends it will ease up, but I don't know if I'll be able to squeeze in a reply until the weekend.))

[The Royal Mirage]

((No worries Nellas, take all the time you need <3))

[Nellas]

((Thank you so much Mirage <3))

((Nellas I looked at your blog and I love your chickens! Especially the baby pictures they're so cute *gush* I really like the black one, did you base Clarence off the feathers?

Also I've been revamping Amara's form so that it will be ready for her move to the Forest, hopefully that will come soon enough. She has deviated a bit from my original idea, just in the little details. So I cleaned them up and filled it out a bit. I'll post the edited version once they reach the Southern Camp. Thinking about sprucing Saber up as well...))

[Nellas]

((My heart leaped seeing a new post on here! <3

Gosh Wolf, thank you ever so much! I'm not quite sure if you can tell from my blog or not, but I am absolutely in love with my chickens, they are everything, and it really means a lot to me when someone compliments them. I think the most recent pictures I posted on my blog are the baby pictures, but have you seen them all grown up yet? The black stars are even more vibrant and iridescent... I did base Clarence's coat off of them, actually, heheh I just couldn't resist- look how beautiful those colors are!
(I also have a turkey and budgies did you see pictures of them too?)

I don't want to clutter the thread with ooc because it's very easy for me to talk about my beloved girls X3 but if you want to talk more, please, feel free to PM me, or if you have a tumblr, shoot something in my inbox,

Thank you so much, Wolf, my heart is very warm ;U; ))
