A Classical Adventure (Private Roleplay)

[Undefined Affections]

Anna held tight to Flex's hand. Everything was alright, he would see that.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

Ingrid watched them leave, then returned to her space sitting in the sun.

[Undefined Affections]

Gray knew what his father was feeling. If anyone maimed Maia the way Luka had, he'd rip out their throat. His father had been too lenient.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

Melo wandered over to lay down near Ingrid again. He was upset, by his brother's actions, and he hoped that Ingrid would scratch his ears again. He was rewarded when she obliged.

[Undefined Affections]

Gray shook his head at Melo, who was always way too mellow for his own good. He joined Denali, butting his head against his brother gently.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

Denali glanced at Gray, then looked over at Melo. His brother seemed calm, true, but Denali could see the slight differences that betrayed their brother's stress and discomfort.

Howl glanced at Ingrid. He was grateful that she'd healed his mother, but she still did not belong in their pack.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

If she had anywhere else to go, she would take the hint. As it was, Ingrid was locked out of her home, and she hadn't seen Amis- she guessed he was locked on one side of the gates or the other, too.

[Undefined Affections]

Howl wished that Amis was there to explain what was going on...and take Ingrid away. She made the hairs at the back of his neck stand up.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

Ingrid knew Howl didn't like her. She purposefully stayed away from him, and stayed quiet.

[Undefined Affections]

Now that Flex and Anna were occupied elsewhere, Howl kept a close eye on the others, especially Luka. He wanted to just run off his brother, but it was his father's decision, not his own.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

Finally Melo stood. He glanced at Ingrid, then wandered away into the woods. It was how he dealt with stress, avoiding the source- which was Luka.

[Undefined Affections]

Melo. Howl called to his brother. He didn't want him wandering away where he couldn't be seen. Melo was the one presence that calmed him as well.

[Calette_Sentrinde]

Melo stopped and glanced back at Howl before he sighed, returning to the pack and slumping into the grass. He put his head on Ingrid's lap, ears pinned to his skull.

[Undefined Affections]

Howl watched Melo, having hoped his brother would stay by his side. That didn't seem to be the case, and he sulked even more.
