ooc; playing with graphics and stuff so forgive all the edits
paws sunk into the soft, damp ground, the wolf can now finally take a breath. the creature sits back on his haunches, raising a cream-colored face to the sky. here, the sun can filter through the thick balcony of trees and down onto him, lighting up thick blotches of his bright fur. there is a weariness in the beast's amber eyes as he stands to continue his journey, and a tired sigh slips through his teeth. he steps precariously through this lesser known portion of the land, keeping himself alert despite his growing fatigue.
enter aloyoshenka. the boy has traveled quite a distance from his birthplace, an area known to him as "home," though the creatures who inhabit this land call it the osteon outlands. he hadn't done much traveling in his short life, and after many moons of thinking, he has since decided to make his way south, toward the kingdoms of the viscious felines, to the territory of a pack he has only heard stories about. though this causes aloyoshenka little alarm. rather, there is a nervous excitement that is making its way through his veins and quickening his stride. he has lived many winters alone ("lived" is a loose term for "barely made it by") and through this time has found himself very curious as to a life lived in the company of others.
now, having abandoned his home and wandered directly into taken territory, the boy has made his way into the edge of what looks like a clearing. the trees have thinned out somewhat considerably and the feeling of sunlight against his back fills the beast with excitement. hidden under the darkness of thick trees, one often forgets what the sun feels like, and aloyoshenka takes a moment to happily sit in the warmth for a considerable moment. shaking out his fur, he forces himself to continue. though he stands out like a sore thumb against the trees, he doesn't bother staying surreptitious in these lands. he wants someone to find him, anyway.

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN NOTHING GOES RIGHT?
Normally Nymeria would have brought an entire patrol with her to check the borders but the borders hadn't been touched or even crossed lately and she wanted some peace and quiet to herself. She'd taken the task of refreshing the scent marks that kept their territory clearly separated from the outlands as well as the rest of the jungle that the felines seemed to wander in.
Large paws carried the multi colored female across the territory. The trees were beginning to thin out as she made her way towards the clearing that was used for hunting. Her ears pricked on top of her head and her emerald eyes scanned the terrain around her in search of anything that stood out or didn't belong. It wasn't until she finally reached the edge of the clearing that she caught sight of a wolf. One she wasn't familiar with.
Curiosity tugged at her stomach and she paused on the edge of the clearing before stepping forward into the sun. The warm sun made the copper and golden brown tones stand out in her coat against the darker charcoal and grey that also littered her back. She approached the male with ears up and tail wagging, trying to show that she wasn't going to cause him any trouble as long as he didn't cause her any trouble. "Hello there, I'm Nymeria Valantis. Alpha of the Kyon pack. And who might you be?" She asked in a friendly tone, her green eyes looking him over before she stopped a few feet away from him, waiting for his reply with a warm smile.

ALOYOSHENKA
the boy takes merely a few steps into the trees when he hears a noise. how lucky. he turns and is greeted by a pleasant voice and an even more pleasant face. before him stands a large canine, as big as himself if not larger. she is a copper color, with creams and tans and darker greys blended into her fur. sharp, green eyes and a wagging tail. he keeps his expression somewhat steady as he comes to the realization that he is not dealing with a large wolf, but instead a large dog. boy, he knew that this pack was a little unconventional - what with their choice with a bitch as a leader - but he didn't know that they allowed dogs to run with them as well.
wait - did she say she was the alpha? he suddenly realizes that he hadn't listened at all, and now looks at the lady in a new light. curiosity pricks at his skin. this is not quite how he imagined this would go. so, regaining his composure, he quickly clears his throat and dips his head to the lady. "apologies, my dear. it has been long since i have seen a beautiful lady like yourself." he lifts his head again to meet hers (technically, though, he has to look up at her a little.) "my name is aloyoshenka, my lady. though if it pleases you, you may call me alo." he chuckles ever so slightly, giving a smile. "you must forgive me, i am quite weary, and you are certainly a sight to behold. i have come a distance looking for the pack i assume you are affiliated with." another easy smile.

As Nymeria approached the male, she was glad to see that he wasn't very far on her pack's territory which must mean that he had noticed the scent markers and was wishing to meet one of the canines that ruled this territory. Normally anyone that crossed the borders was up to no good, looking to steal some prey from their lands without being noticed. The Lukos Clearing was a common place for all sorts of prey animals to visit. But with Nym being by herself, taking the patrol without having anyone else with her, she was glad this male didn't seem to want trouble because trouble wasn't exactly in her schedule for the day.
Apologies, my dear. It has been long since I have seen a beautiful lady like yourself. Nymeria smiled at his kind words, even coming from a stranger, she wasn't use to being complimented in such a way. Most of her pack saw her as their leader and nothing more. That could make for a lonely life but she had no space to complain. My name is Aloyoshenka, my lady. Though if it pleases you, you may call me Alo. Nymeria dipped her head in greeting to Alo as he introduced himself. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Alo." She replied with a warm smile. You must forgive me, I am quite weary, and you are certainly a sight to behold. I have come a distance looking for the pack I assume you are affiliated with. Nymeria's ears pricked up a bit at his words, what would have caused him to travel so far to find her pack? Her curiosity shown a bit in her emerald eyes as she looked him over briefly but confirmed that she had never seen him before. Whatever words he had heard of her pack had to have come from someone else.
"You flatter me with your words." She began, smile still on her face as she made sure to hide the blush that wanted to creep up onto her face. "Why have you sought out my pack? What interests do you have?" She questioned, her tone still friendly as she lowered herself onto her hind end, seeing as their conversation would probably last a bit longer than a simple hello.

ALOYOSHENKA
the lady smiles back genuinely at his words, for just long enough for aloyoshenka to deduce that perhaps she is a woman unaccustomed to such flattery. not uncommon, he supposes. most of the beasts around here are probably more concerned with living and dying than complimenting a pretty lady. but, one must have his priorities, alo supposes. she is still smiling when she inquires about his purpose. he wonders how many others have traveled his distance in search of her pack (he notes that she refers to it as her pack, which puts a smile on the boy's face.) perhaps not many. ah, well he ought to make a good impression, huh?
alo relaxes back onto his haunches as well, going over his words in his head before he says them. though, it's a little bit hard to when he keeps getting distracted by the gorgeous markings running through the girl's fur, and those long legs and -- boy! it has sure been a long time since he has interacted with a lady and he is not faring well. he clears his throat again, hoping she had not noticed the quick seconds in which his eyes glazed over her. "well, my lady, you must understand that your legacy extends well beyond the reach of your lands. i come from somewhere beyond here," he points his head the direction he came from, "for even from the distance stretches of the jungle from whence i came, i heard stories of you." okay, well this isn't totally true. mostly, he'd occasionally heard of a few small events, but he'd snipnnped together the story. "a brave lady with a dark past, bringing wolves and dogs alike together and creating a community." he winks at her with a sheepish grin. "sounds like the kind of place for me."
"but, in all seriousness, my dear, i have lived my whole life on my own, with the exception of the early winters before i could fend for myself. i have few siblings which have dispersed themselves across this land and my mother was alone in taking care of us." his expression is somewhat serious now, but not sad. "i do not want to 'make it by' anymore. i want to be a part of something. i want to dedicate my life to something - someone." boy, he sounds cheesy, doesn't he? he laughs a little. "i was hoping perhaps you might be worthy of that, my lady."

The newcomer was silent for a moment as if he was ponder just how to say what it was he was wanting to say. she tilted her head to the side a bit but didn't interrupt his pondering. She was hoping that his intentions were good, perhaps he was looking to join her pack. It would be a wonderful change of pace to have a newcomer to the pack. Especially someone that looked at her as a lady and not just the alpha or the canine that had gotten her only brother and the rightful alpha hurt. Hurt so badly that he couldn't take up the role of alpha which was his birth right. It had been an accident, she hadn't wanted to hurt her brother but the feline rouges had wanted her and her siblings for breakfast. Her brother had stepped up and saved them until a patrol could chase off the felines but it had cost him his mind, his hind leg as well as the position of alpha which was suppose to be his.
She pushed those thoughts aside though, not wanting to think about any of that right now. It was always right there in the back of her mind and for once she wanted to focus on this friendly stranger instead of her dark past. Well, my lady, you must understand that your legacy extends well beyond the reach of your lands. i come from somewhere beyond here. For even from the distance stretches of the jungle from whence i came, i heard stories of you. A bit of worry crept up inside of Nymeria at his words but she kept it hidden. She had become very good at hiding her true feelings, especially after all of the hatred she'd endured for getting the position she'd supposedly "stolen" from her brother. "I hope you've heard good things about me." She replied, licking her lips as a way to distract herself from showing her worry.
A brave lady with a dark past, bringing wolves and dogs alike together and creating a community. Sounds like the kind of place for me. She smiled softly again when he spoke once more, glad to hear that he had heard at least part of her dark past and yet it didn't seem to bother him. It even sounded like he might want to join her. A thought that brought a slightly bigger smile to her face. But, in all seriousness, my dear, I have lived my whole life on my own, with the exception of the early winters before I could fend for myself. I have few siblings which have dispersed themselves across this land and my mother was alone in taking care of us. I do not want to 'make it by' anymore. I want to be a part of something. I want to dedicate my life to something - someone.
His next words made her smile a bit sheepishly, her green eyes glancing down at the ground for a moment before returning to him. She wasn't use to flattery and maybe he wasn't meaning to flatter her but his words meant more to her than she would have liked to admit. Plus a girl could dream that maybe, just maybe, there was someone out there that wanted to be with her. I was hoping perhaps you might be worthy of that, my lady. Her emerald eyes came to land on him and she still had a smile on her face as she forced herself to focus on replying and finding her voice again.
"You seem like a fine canine and I could see you being a wonderful addition to our pack. All I ask is that you show me, as well as your new pack mates, your full loyalty. We are a family, we watch out for each other and that's how we survive. Everyone works to help each other and provide for the pack as a whole." She explained, her eyes examining him, attempting not to linger on his muscular features too long. "You may join with a rank of omega and once you prove yourself and display your skills, you will be assigned a permanent position and rank among the pack." She finished, lifting her chin a bit as she remembered her own rank in the pack. "Do you accept these terms?" She questioned, finding that she hoped he would agree.

ALOYOSHENKA
ooc;; sorry no muse for writing today lols
"i hope you've heard good things about me." aloyoshenka's eyes flicker over the woman again. details of her past are beyond his knowledge, and he finds himself extremely curious now as to what her history is. the gossip he had heard (very little, i might add) was hard to decipher and often provided minimal information. but here he is, next to the girl herself. "why, of course. it seems you are admired by many," he says, but asks no more.
his words make her smile, and avert her eyes for a moment, something that encites a little more excitement in him than it should. her smile does not fade even after his voice does, and when she finds hers, she speaks clearly and with confidence. "you seem like a fine canine and i could see you being a wonderful addition to our pack. all i ask is that you show me, as well as your new pack mates, your full loyalty. we are a family, we watch out for each other and that's how we survive. everyone works to help each other and provide for the pack as a whole." he spends a few moments soaking in her words, meeting her emerald gaze.
"you may join with a rank of omega and once you prove yourself and display your skills, you will be assigned a permanent position and rank among the pack." her tone is more serious now, and she lifts her chin. he seems to find amusement in this, grinning toothily. "do you accept these terms?" alo almost laughs. "how could i not?"

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN NOTHING GOES RIGHT?
Why, of course. it seems you are admired by many. His words carried some relief to her but she still wasn't sure how much he knew. Surely not all of the details of her past had been passed around that easily and quickly had they? To be honest, she really didn't no so she just nodded with a hum, happy to accept his words for the moment.
Switching gears, Nym focuses on filling him in on the pack as well as what he would do if he did agree to join. New members were always an exciting thing and she found herself quite excited to see how he would do among her pack mates. Her tone shifted a bit more towards the one she used when speaking as alpha, getting down to business before asking him if he accepted. How could i not?
The smile on his face made her smile as well in reply to his answer. "Wonderful! Come with me and I will show you around your new home." She held back her enthusiasm a bit, not wanting to seem too over eager at him joining but he was different than the males in her pack. He intrigued her and she couldn't help but wonder about his own history as well as want to spend more time with him.
Rising back up to all four paws, she smiled over at him as she led the way to the Skyli Cavern that the Kyon pack called home. Once arriving, she nodded her head to the two wolves that stood guard outside the mouth of the cavern. "Say hello to Alolyoshenka. He wishes to join our pack and will be living with us now." She informed them, gesturing towards the wolf beside her as they stepped into the caverns, the guards nodding their heads in greeting to the newcomer.
The cavern was one big, spacious room with a high ceiling that had a few large holes in it which allowed the sunlight to filter through and light up the interior of the cavern. The large clearing had smaller caves that were scattered along the interior rock walls, some of them requiring one to climb up a few ledges to get to them. These caves served as dens and the higher ranked wolves had their own private ones while the other lower ranks shared large ones. "Well? What do you think?" She asked, her emerald eyes scanning her home that she'd grown up in with a smile before coming to rest on his face, hoping he would like it as much as she did.

ALOYOSHENKA
"wonderful! come with me and i will show you around your new home." and just like that, the girl is on her paws, her eyes glimmering and a smile on her face. (meanwhile, alo tries not to think too much of that feeling he gets when she smiles.) shaking himself back to his senses, the boy rises on his paws as well, following her tail. it is now, undisturbed by the need to continue on conversation, the male can truly examine her (and what a great view!) from here, he can see the extent of her markings, greens intertwined beautifully with her neutral fur. light markings around her shoulders seem to resemble wings and, if the boy had more experience with these kinds of things, he perhaps would have known that these were the marks of those who have the ena soul stone. however, ignorant as he is, he just finds them aesthetically pleasant and makes a mental note to ask the woman about it later. (he also feels quite a bit jealous; he certainly doesn't look that cool!)
it is a short walk to their destination, a quiet journey that alo filled with excited thoughts. he wasn't a wolf that had ventured very far in his life and these new sights and smells exhilarated him to no end. a very large cave of some sort lie before them, with gruff, silent canines guarding the entrance. nymeria greets them pleasantly: "say hello to Alolyoshenka. he wishes to join our pack and will be living with us now." he gives them a friendly smile. they nod. at this, aloyoshenka begins to feel the beginnings of intimidation seep into his fur, but he swiftly stifles it, forcing himself to focus on his surroundings. and boy, is it a sight to behold. alo had seen some interesting things in his life but nothing quite like this. the cavern seemed perfect for the community it held, small rays of sunlight filtering in, large alcoves for canines to nestle themselves in. (he must constantly remind himself that he has allied himself with all kinds of canines now, not just wolves.) the male takes a long moment to soak everything in (as well as let his eyes adjust to the much more atmospheric lighting of his new home.)
when the lady speaks, he looks to her, watches her look across the community she's built and the place she calls home with a smile on her face. he smiles back at her. "well, it's certainly beautiful." he takes a moment to glance around again, truly amazed at the structure, before looking back at the woman. "thank you, my lady. your graciousness means more than i can say." he gives her another toothy grin, truly meaning the words.

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN NOTHING GOES RIGHT?
The journey to the Skyli Cavern doesn't take too long and soon they reach their destination. The two step inside after speaking briefly with the guards and then Nymeria gives him a moment to take it all in. It's definitely something quite different than many have seen before. A proud feeling fills her chest as she looks around as members of her pack mingle and wander about the cavern taking care of their specific jobs and tasks. The pack was like a well oiled machine and each canine was an important part of the pack. There were quite a few different types of canines that lived among her pack and every one of them had something to contribute. Those that didn't contribute much such as the elders and those females about to have pups had earned their time of rest from their earlier dedication to the pack. It all worked well as long as everyone did what they were suppose to. Well, it's certainly beautiful.
"At night, there are crystals in the walls that glow. It's an amazing sight, I never get tired of it." She added, her eyes glancing over at him before looking back around the cavern. Thank you, my lady. Your graciousness means more than i can say. She smiled back at him and nodded her head in reply. "You're very welcome." She answered, her emerald eyes lingering on him for probably a moment too long before she snapped herself back to reality. "Your den will be that one over there. It's large on the inside so you'll share it with a couple other omegas. Get some rest and then I'll take you on a hunt so we can get some dinner for us and the pack." She instructed, gesturing towards his den before turning to look at him once more.

ooc;; shall we take this to another thread?
when aloyoshenka and she meet eyes, his tail begins to wag behind him, like a child. he glances over at the den she nods her head to, wondering who he would share his den with, and whether or not they'd get along as well as he and nymeria do. he looks back at her, not heeding her instruction for a long moment, then, a bit nervously, the wolf flattens his ears against the crest of his head, leans forward, gives the girl a light, friendly lick along her cheek and quickly makes his way to his den.
