Forest LakeFeralis' camping ground ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════▨✥▨═══════════════════════════════════════════════╗
Introduction:
Located deep in the outskirts lies a small, stream-fed, lake. Known to only a few who would go this far from Vale, it is a beautiful spot that sports a field of flowers nearby in a large clearing with forest all around. The lake itself features some small fish that could be hunted, and its clear waters are an enjoyable way to relax/ swim in. Due to its relative isolation, and being a water source, many animals will come by to graze, hunt, or drink throughout the day and night. Signs of camping can be seen near the lake; though mostly small ones and all in similar spots near it. Whether it was from one person repeatedly or from a few people its hard to tell exactly.

[Takes place after class time while feelings from mission still unresolved and everything.]
Seeing how things were for the team at present, even with how their class had gone to get about an overall victory for team Main, Feralis knew something had to be done or they'd split. Differences aside, this was his new team with how infrequent he would see Maria or Hair-ball; and with seeing Rachel it only re-affirmed it. For the time being, Mako would have to pass in pieces but they would pass. He would not let down their team name like that. And...despite how Princess made him fearful at times or his own spats with Beta...he had been beginning to feel a bit like how it was with his old team; with Beta especially. For now, this was his new pack...and with the loss of Jess, the pack seemed close to falling apart. So Feralis did the unthinkable with his nature...he organized a group event. A picnic/ outdoor trip to the Vale outskirts, saying he had a spot in mind and that it was so they could all attempt to...talk, grieve, and maybe get alone better. Which he knew he was not the best at that in the slightest. So Feralis would lead them early in the morning away from their dorms, and deep into the outskirts to his usual camp site. It would take a few hours travel, but not much would disturb them during it. Feralis staying relatively silent and alert throughout, but noticeably relaxing a bit now that he was in nature again. He could feel the bit of tension and mood of the group though, and his own thoughts, which encouraged him to remain silent for now. Once the team entered the clearing, he would turn to them with a smile...and not vicious, which was unusual for him. "Welcome to my territory in the outskirts."
He would say a bit possessively, gesturing and looking himself to the flower-filled field and the lake beyond it. Aside from that, he would not say anything else immediately. Letting one of them do the talking if they desired, though his stomach did growl a bit. In his haste, he had sort of skipped eating breakfast and could feel that now. Ɛ==3 Post Count: 80

   ᴄᴏᴍᴘᴀɴʏ : Rachel xxx ꜱᴇᴍʙʟᴀɴᴄᴇ : Inactive xxx ᴏᴜᴛꜰɪᴛ : School Uniform xxx ᴘᴏꜱᴛ ᴄᴏᴜɴᴛ : 145
Ivory had begrudgingly gotten up that morning. He felt like s**t, not from the fight during class, but because that b***h brought up feelings he wasn't ready to be faced with. Feelings he wasn't ready to feel just yet. He didn't even know where they laid her to rest. It was his sister, and yet he missed out on everything that happened with her. He missed the end of her short life. He would get up and get ready, like he always did, he would hide his body from them, he didn't want them to see the scars on his body.
Feralis would make him follow him into the outskirts. He would stay silent the entire time. Silence had gotten him through the months before. So had hunting and fishing. He would keep an eye out. They were in the open. If the Crimson Fang wanted him, they could take him here.
Then, he would be shown to a lake. It was beautiful, but it smelled of wolves. Great, he would have to watch out for wolves as well, other than the ones on his team. "This is nice and all, but did you bring anything to eat? Or even fishing hooks to catch fish?" Ivory didn't much care for what they were going to do today...he just wanted his time to gather his thoughts, and mourn his sister.

"Would you like some candy Noah?"
"Remember that gives me a sore stomach Nova... "
"BOOOOOOORING!!"  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - - Nova Primrose & Noah - -
Nova had recently gone through a lot of changes, both personally and physically. She was stronger than before and had a more mature aura about her, even though she would always be Nova. She was looking forward to spending some time with the team, they needed to bond and she would keep this in mind to remain as calm as possible. Noah would sit comfortable in her arms being held like a teddy bear as they followed Feralis to the area.
She would give some looks at Ivory, he was obviously hurting inside after everything that happened with Jessica. She didn't really know what to do, but would come up with something to try and cheer him up. As they came to the clearing, Feralis would introduce his territory and Nova would smile at the area, it was really pretty. She was thinking how it was the perfect place for a date, but would shake the idea out of her mind, not wanting to be her usual self anymore.
"This is really pretty.." she would say as she put Noah down. He would run through the field and stretch his legs. Nova would chuckle and catch up with him, bending down she would pick a flower and blow it in the pups nose, making him sneeze. Nova would again laugh as she looked back at Ivory who questioned if Feralis brought anything to use for food. She would roll her eyes to Noah, and sit on the grass, feeling it with her hands as she sighed with relief. It had been a while since she could just relax, so she lay down and closed her eyes, waiting for a response from Feralis.

The silence during their walk had been a small comfort for what was to come. The wolf was not very good at expressing himself outside of aggression; least not for the sappier feelings people. Even Princess, for once, seemed content with silence and all too with Noah held snuggly in her arms. Part of him had been tempted to tease the fellow wolf, but not hadn't felt the time for it. As they arrived, and he explained the spot, he awaited their responses. The reaction was much like the wolf-faunus had been expecting truthfully. Beta was his usual grouchy self; going straight to asking what they were going to do for food and pretty bluntly saying he expected Feralis to have forgotten to account for it. The wolf-faunus' smile faltered for a moment as he looked to the feline; but was distracted by Princess' reaction next. She would seem in much higher spirits than the other feline, commenting how the place was pretty and letting Noah down to stretch his legs with running. Even going to mess with him a bit as laughter creeped into the air before she would lay down. Feralis had purposefully put off responding to Beta; two could play at this game. Deciding after a moment he had waited enough, not feeling particularly patient on his own empty stomach, Feralis would speak. "Nah, I expect us all to hunt with our teeth and claws. Of course I have stuff to hunt and fish with; this is my territory after all." Feralis would respond with annoyance in his voice. While he hadn't brought prepared food, that was more for his preference for fresh food than anything else. There also wasn't much to do while fishing other than talk or silence; he figured it'd be as good a way to pass time as any.
"It's this way," he would add after a moment and begin walking towards the lake. Enjoying the crunch of grass beneath hit boots and the slight breeze going through that bent the flowers of the field. He would lead Beta to the boulder by the lake, and after a little unearthing, would reveal a few fishing rods and a buried box. Taking both from their spots, he would lean the rods against the rock as he would open the box. "Take your pick of those two, but the bone one is mine," he would say without looking up from the box, but voice sounding much more possessive of the bone one. There were three fishing rods in total; simple in design in that they were wooden. Only one sported a bit of bone design with it; something he had gotten specially made. Inside the box was some fishing supplies to actually fully assemble the rod; string, hooks, etc. Noticeably, it was missing bait. Before he could be asked, Feralis would head off any questions in that regard; "There is plenty of live bait we can get here," he would say in general as he dug into his pack and produced two metal rods. Taking out a yellow dust crystal, he would break it onto the rods; causing electricity to course through it and into the ground. Worms, soon after, began to escape the shock below by coming above ground. Plucking a few, Feralis would place them into an empty jar for bait. Knowing he could just shock again later if they needed more. "Princess, you going to join us in fishing or do you want to get a fire pit ready?" Feralis would ask over his shoulder to her as he began setting up his own fishing rod. For now, Feralis was content to use the prep work for fishing as a way to keep busy and partially distracted. Not sure when exactly to bring up Jess; now, during, after.

Ivory would watch Nova go off and play. He wished he could be so...carefree. However the events of the mission brought reality to him. He was a wanted man. He might have shook off a few of the members, but there were a lot more hidden members than there were ones in the open. He needed to be careful wherever he went. Feralis would start to tease him. Saying at first that they would hunt with tooth and claw. "Wouldn't be the first time I had to fish with just my claws." Ivory hadn't talked much about the time that he was away. Ivory left with his sword and his mechanical hand
as weapons.
Ivory would follow Feralis into the shed that housed the fishing equipment. He would pick the sturdier of the two rods he was allowed to pick up. Feralis would shock the ground, getting bait. That was useful, sadly he hadn't had that kind of dust when he left. Ivory would bait his rod, and test the string. Everything seemed to be in the right order. Ivory would go to the water's edge, and cast this rod, sending it further from him. He would just sit in the dirt and mud, not seeming to care about his clothing.

"Would you like some candy Noah?"
"Remember that gives me a sore stomach Nova... "
"BOOOOOOORING!!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - - Nova Primrose & Noah - -
Nova would open her eyes after lying in the grass, the breeze would move playfully through her hair as she stretched, sitting herself up. Nova would watch Feralis and Ivory go and collect some rods to fish, she would look at Noah and let a small grin creep onto her face, "I wonder if they'll maybe bond a little.." she would say, the thought of Jessica would then run through her mind as her face went straight again, shaking the thoughts off as she would give Noah a good scratch behind his ear.
Nova heard her name being called by Feralis, or at least her nickname - one she was very fond of hearing. She would watch the pair setting up their rods to do fishing and the thought of doing that really didn't peak her interests. She stood up and dusted her legs down as grass came falling off them, "I'll get stuff for a fire.." she said, a small shudder in her voice, she would act as brave as possible, but the truth was that Nova was absolutely petrified of fire. Noah looked a little concerned, but decided to follow her as she went off to get some wood.
A little time would pass and throughout Nova would have made some trips collecting what she thought was some good resources for a fire pit. She would carry some wood in her arms whilst Noah would bring some smaller twigs, "Why have we made several trips without you being in your larger form Noah?" she said, a curious look on her face as she knew the wolf was just being too lazy. Noah sheepishly laughed and ran ahead to collect more, ignoring the comment. "Thinks I'm stupid.. well who's stupid when we're eating fried wolf for dinner..." she would say, loud enough for Noah to hear as she followed back after him.

Feralis was surprised to not hear any arguments or fights come from his own comment as Ivory just said it would not be the first time he had to hunt with tooth and claw. Making Feralis curious if he meant in past or during his more recent absence. Feralis was still mostly oblivious on all the details on what had happened during the time; he had truthfully just been expecting the usual Ivory to be back now though something seemed up. Even to someone who wasn't the best at reading others like himself. While he had seemed his usual self in the beginning, the lack of argumentative or fighting kind of comment was throwing the wolf off slightly; and he had no clue how to deal with it besides focus on the task at hand. Even as Feralis mentioned the rods and got bait, his own preventative comment on how they would being shown, Ivory would just remain silent and take his place on the bank to prepare to fish. In a strange twist, it really made Feralis unsure of what to say at all; he had been relying on the usual fire of rivalry between the two to talk but it was just absent. Trying to suppress his own urges, for once, he would wait a little and see; having to get his own fishing rod ready and see what Princess would be doing. 'We have to be set up if we want this to last,' he thought silently to himself. Princess would volunteer to get a fire, though there was a strange...something to her voice. He didn't know the word for it, but it wasn't usual bubbly nova for sure. He was partially curious on it but she was already moving away before he could ask.
Which, for better or for worse, left him alone with Beta as his teammate tossed his fishing line while sitting down on the muddy bank. Feralis soon following once his own was ready; moving a good few feet away from Beta though before tossing his roughly the same distance into the water as the former did (did a dice roll and got 64). A stretch of silence would form between the two as they waited for their lines to prove successful; during which Feralis would occasionally note Princess return and depart with wood. Fishing was a thing of patience after all; though Feralis, even with being a hunter, was not always so. He would re-cast his lines a few times and in different spots, just to try and bait fish to come, as they waited. Eventually, the silence grew too long for the wolf as he would speak up first. "So where have you been?" he would ask a bit gruffly while keeping his eyes on the water still. It may've come out more hostile than intended, but Feralis wasn't sure how to deal with the silence besides be blunt in speaking on it. He believed if there was an issue it should be spoken openly or else it would never get resolved. "And why have you been so damn quiet?" he would ask, though despite the cursing his voice was more muted than it usually was and didn't carry its usual hostility. Asking this stuff may not be the best way to deal with things or approach the topic, as he had a feeling it was Jess like how it seemed to be affecting Princess too, but it was the way he knew how to at least. He wasn't as close as the other two were to her, being the newer and not exactly cooperative member of the team, but he knew how a pack mourned and needed to. Staying silent though was not the way to go about it in his mind though.

Ivory would cast slowly reel in the rod, hoping to make it seem like a fish moving. He was wanting to get enough to feed the three of them err...four of them. His ears would twitch towards Nova, as she said she would go get wood. Ivory's tail would swish back and forth. Once the line was back to him, he would cast it once more, doing the same thing over again. Feralis would then speak, asking him how's he's been. "I ran into the mountains to avoid detection. I may not look like it, but I'm far more deadly there." His voice was filled with a sadness. "Don't get me wrong, it didn't work. I still had to fight for my life." He would not show Feralis his new scars.
Then Feralis would ask the question of why he was so quiet. Was it more that he wasn't fighting with Feralis? Why did they think he needed to talk much? He didn't even think he deserved to talk. "Haven't had to in 3 months. I'm getting used to it once more." His tail would swish again, as he pulled in the line. "Plus, do I deserve to talk to either of you? You learned parts of my past. I don't know how you and Nova feel about having me here. I didn't think Jessica would want me here either...but I can't ask her..." His voice started to crack at the last part. Jessica was the sister he never had. "Though thinking about it...You know nothing about me, and even my time in school." He would give a sad chuckle. "But that can even be said for you, Feralis. Who are you really?" There was a little hostility in his voice, but not enough to really make a difference.

"Would you like some candy Noah?"
"Remember that gives me a sore stomach Nova... "
"BOOOOOOORING!!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - - Nova Primrose & Noah - -
Nova had been collecting firewood for a while, she could see Noahs ears pick up as he listened to the conversation between the boys. She looked to him and he shook his head, a sign that Nova shouldn't interrupt their bonding moment. "Cute.." she would mutter, as she smiled in their direction. Nova looked at the pile of firewood with Noah with her arms on her hips, she stood for a bit too long that it became slightly awkward, she just didn't have the guts to try and light a fire. Noah would roll his eyes and the feline grabbed the pup and glared at him, faster than he could think. "WELL WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT HUH?!" she yelled, the wolf squirming in her hands as she eventually put him down.
Noah would shake himself off, "It would appear neither of us can light the fire, I don't have fingers and you are too afraid.. we could try and find something to hunt?" he suggested, so that they could leave the others to chat. Nova gave Noah a glaring side eye, which he gulped at the sight of. However, she would then walk past him as she tapped him, turning him into his large form. "Hunting it is.. although I'm going to need you to actually be useful.." she would say as they went off to find some rabbits or food.

Beta would answer his first question at the very least, with not too much hesitation involved. He would say he ran into the mountains to avoid detection, and that he was far more deadly there. Given the sad tone of voice, Feralis had a feeling it did not work out how he wanted it to; and given his next words it was confirmed. Beta was apparently forced to fight in the mountains when he had been seeking not to. Despite his falling out with his group, as Feralis understood it, he still seemed to not want to fight them. Even if he disagreed with their views. Feralis was unsure what to offer or say to that point. His life had been pretty simple, Kendall aside. 'A pack is for life,' is what went through his own mind. He was unsure of how to word it though; words not being his strong point unless it was cursing. A wolf pack did not abandon it's own members; they fought as one. There may be conflicts in leadership, and occasional fights inside, but a pack did not divide or hunt one another down. In his mind at the least. It was...hard for him, even in his own mind, to explain what that would mean in a more human/faunus context versus animal. Animals had to work together to survive; people did not always have to.
Feralis would ask his next question, and get a simple response not long after. Beta has truly been isolated in the mountains with no one to speak to. Though Feralis knew it was more than that; or at least felt so. He hadn't seen Kendall in years and yet their first meeting was just as fiery as ever so he had expected the same with Beta. He would note the tail swish, recognizing it a bit from when Kenna did it but unsure what it really meant since he didn't seem like he was about to explode at any moment like her. He would then talk about Feralis or Princess potentially not wanting him back, and questioning if he deserved to talk to them given what was revealed of his past. Even questioning whether Jessica would want him here. Feralis was still trying to think of what to say, thoughts in mind but unsure of how to put them to words, as Beta continued. This time taking a new direction; saying Feralis knew nothing about him or his time at school with a sad chuckle before taking things to a new direction as hostility entered his voice. Saying the same could be aid about Feralis, and asking him who he really was.
While probably not his intention, it was getting a rise out of Feralis. He was about to lash out, focus entirely off fishing now as he prepared to rise to his feet...before Princess would interrupt him before he could start. Turning his head, he would see her carrying and screaming at Noah asking him what did she want him to do about it. Feralis' ears and tail were up in surprise as he just stared, his anger and frustration momentarily dissipated, before they would head off. He would stare a few moments, shaking his head, before his attention would go back to Ivory as he tossed his fishing rod down besides him. A bit of fire to his eyes, and with hostility in his voice, though not more than the usual from him. "Who am I? I am Feralis Alarick. Member of team Main. Former member of team Mako. An alpha of a wolf pack. An orphan. One who had his father die hunting Grimm and whose mother was killed by the tribe; being chased away into the forest to perish there," he would say, going from most recent to oldest in terms of what he viewed himself. Voice going bittersweet at the end of it as memories of his mother and father flashed through his mind. It was something he had told no one else except maybe Maria; it was a past he did his best never to reveal but Ivory had been the special case to have it come out. He would pause a brief moment, fists clenching and unclenching as memories swam through his mind and spoke without thinking. "You're right; I barely know anything about you and the same for you to me. You know what I do know though? You can be an a**, you are timid, your moping and lack of self worth is annoying as all hell, and you infuriate me to no end," he would pause briefly again, venting his anger and frustration at Beta, before continuing swiftly with a much less hostile tone. "But you are reliable, strong in your own rights, and a half-decent rival. Which is why it angers me to no end that someone I can call that would think themselves that way," he would say with a sigh. Taking a moment to attempt to compose his thoughts before continuing. "I am not going to BS you or try to give some motivational speech or say everything will be alright. I learned how the world is the day it took my mother from me. But do you know what I do know? I know what it means to be in a pack, a family. A pack looks out for it's members; weak and old. They don't abandon them. I have no clue what made you leave yours, nor do I expect to know unless you care to share it. But like it or not, you me Noah and Princess are a pack now. A pack Jessica was once part of. A pack does not exile it's own cause of their past. You stood against your tribe with us. You could've easily have rejoined them and left us. That is all the proof I need to know you've earned your worth as part of this pack. I can't speak for Princess, but even I could tell she was worried with your absence and wanted you back," he would take in a deep breath and let it back out strongly after going on for longer than he intended. If Ivory wanted, he could interject at this point, but it was obvious Feralis was not finished. "As much as you make me want to punch you at times Ivory, if I didn't want you back I would not have brought you here. I am...ashamed to admit it, but losing Jessica made me realize that i'm no longer a lone wolf; I am part of a pack again. All of us are a pack, for better or worse. And a pack doesn't turn away a member that lost their way for a time. A pack should be together to mourn the loss of one of it's members. I probably have little right to say all this; i'm still the new-blood in this team and I know barley anything about you or Princess or even Noah. I can't even promise I will be any nicer as part of the pact; I speak my mind and how I see things. All I can promise is that I'll always do my damndest to protect my pack and help them if I can. Thats it; I've said my part in this. You're free to yell at me if you want as well or say i'm wrong," Feralis would finish, speaking honestly. His voice a mix of emotions as he spoke but the one thing that could be gleaned from it was that he meant every word; Feralis wasn't the type to lie. His arms were at his sides, hands no longer fists, as he waited...for what he was not sure. Part of him wanted to be yelled at, to have Ivory argue with him and fight so things were simpler. Part of him hoped Ivory would see things his way and...he had no clue what that would lead to. All he knew for certain was that he said all he could and thought; almost everything was on the table. Hell, if Ivory asked him to reveal more of himself he would at this stage; he had already revealed his most painful memories in anger. And if Ivory wanted to say his part, he would listen. Whether he would agree or not was a different case, but Ivory had earned that much to him. He hated seeing him mopey more than when they were at each other's throats.

Ivory would listen to everything that Feralis had to say. He knew Feralis was older than them, but he didn't know that he had another team before them. Team Mako, it was interesting, he wondered what their team dynamic was like. It didn't matter now, did it, wouldn't the rest of his team had graduated. Wait...alpha of a wolf pack? Like, wolf Faunus or actual wolves? He would have to ask, but now was not the time.
Then, Feralis would list off some of his negative traits. Well, it hurt to have them pointed out. He knew he was worthless. Then Feralis would point out some good traits. He was good at combat? That was a joke. Ivory let out a chuckle at that. He was no powerhouse.
However, he started to go on about a pack, how they were a pack. And he didn't know why Ivory left his old pack, but they had one now. Ivory would think for a moment, before he put his rod down as well. Instead of standing up though, he would just remove his shirt. It was a scene of scars that Feralis had never seen, the most noticable ones, were clearly claw marks from a Grimm, the scars looked like the wound would have been extremely deep. He would let Feralis stare if he needed too. The other ones on his torso could be seen as claws from other Faunus, and marks from swords.
He would let Feralis finish his speech, trying not to lose control over his own semblance. He would then start to speak. "You have no clue what it was like to grow up in Panthrea. I didn't have strength of my mother, instead I was more like my father. I'm not even a beta in that tribe. Once they knew that I couldn't summon some kind of strength, I was labeled as worthless to the tribe. I was made to clean out the pens they used to train cubs. They would set a human in the cage, and you weren't allowed out until you killed the human, or if the human almost killed you." He would point to different scars from those kinds of fights.
He would then flick the chains in his ear. "This is a sign that I'm a failure. Every time they make a noise, I'm reminded." He would rub his face with his left hand. "I didn't have a choice but to leave. One day, I was trying to prove myself on the mountains. I encountered an Ursa, and I was by myself without any weapons. I dodged the best that I could, but I took heavy hits. I was on the verge of death when gwynt, my semblance, appeared. It opened a way for me to leave. When I was in the entrance of the village, I passed out. My tribe wouldn't help me recover, and my mother was berating me. I couldn't take it, I got so angry, and then my semblance decided to activate. I sucked all the air out of an alpha. I was sent to Vale, and abandoned. I was given to a human couple, who wanted to 'Domesticate the wild cat.' They are sponsoring me to be here, so I have to do what they say, wear what they want me to." When he said domesticating a wild cat, he sounded angry.
"I didn't leave, I was exiled, for almost killing my mother, and for getting a cybernetic hand. It didn't matter that I killed the leader of The Tribe, all that mattered was that I lost an arm, and didn't just live with it." His voice would go sad. He then would give another sad chuckle, "Saying it out loud, it's no wonder why I feel the way I do. I'm never good enough for anyone. I don't even make a good rival for you. However, it is nice to hear that I do have some redeeming qualities."
He would then put back on his shirt. No need to be shirtless when he could actually be more comfortable covered. "I'm not going to be angry. I can't afford to be, and you don't want me to be, unless you want to end up like my mother." His voice was more neutral. There wasn't even a sign of hostility, it was just more of a warning. "What I'm more interested in is the wolf pack that you mentioned. Is it Faunus, or actual wolves?"

"Would you like some candy Noah?"
"Remember that gives me a sore stomach Nova... "
"BOOOOOOORING!!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - - Nova Primrose & Noah - -
Nova and Noah returned with some rabbit and resources they had managed to catch, she would place them down on the ground on a small towel to keep it as clean as possible. As she placed them down, she couldn't help but see that her two teammates were evidently having a heart to heart conversation. Her face would look a little sad as she sighed, Noah would nuzzle her leg slightly and attempt to comfort her. "Maybe I'm just not cut out for this type of thing?" she said, a little embarrassed and confused. Nova was always the one trying to cheer up others and the one who always pushed through with her annoyingly positive attitude to life and everything in it, but right now she just didn't have it in her, and nobody seemed to want to check if she was alright in her mind at least. "I think it's almost time for us to call it a day and just return to the tribe, what do you think Noah?" she would say as she sat down on the ground, patting her partner on his head gently.
She could tell the conversation between her teammates became a passionate one, she would tilt her head in confusion as Ivory removed his shirt, showing the scars on his body. Nova's eyes would open widely and she couldn't help but stare, her teammate had evidently been through a lot in his lifetime and she still didn't even know. There were deeper scars on him, it almost looked like an Ursa had taken a chunk out of him and Nova cringed at the thought of how painful that would have been for her poor friend. Nova continued to watch, unaware of the conversation as he put his top back on - it made her mind wonder to places she had never been before. "Scars on the outside, but even larger ones on the inside I bet.." she said, as she looked up to the sky, almost talking to herself at the same time.
"If you go back, you know you can never leave.. that's why we're trying to find another route to take is it not?" he would say to her, a grunt coming from the wolf. Nova would sigh and look into the sky, evidently lost in thought. "Yeah, I know old man.." she would say as she playfully pushed him gently with a smirk on her face. He sat beside her as they peacefully and quietly looked into the sky, not much could be said or done at the moment while the others were deep in conversation.

Feralis had been surprised to see Ivory not interrupt or seem to get angry for through his own outburst. He had been mostly calm through it all, with a few other emotions mixed into it. One being a laugh when Feralis was mentioning he was good in a fight, which Feralis didn't like what that implied but didn't pursue it more. What also surprised Feralis was him taking off his shirt. Nudity didn't bother him in the slightest, but he was unsure why he was doing it till he saw the scars on his body. He could make out some that looked like they had been from Grimm, given the size of those marks, and others much smaller and more...refined in a way. Looking more like weaponry or faunus natural weapons than Grimm or an actual animals. He could really only recognize the marks at all due to seeing them so often on others, like those in his wolf pack, rather than his own experience. 'This is more than I expected him to have though,' Feralis thought to himself as he openly stared and studied them. Part of him was tempted to stand and circle around him to fully study that way but for now he just stuck to sitting and looking as Ivory showed them. There was no grimace or disgust on his face though; just curiosity and focus as he looked them over. It reminded him this was the first time he ever even saw Ivory without something covering this, making him wonder what he saw of it. Feralis barely wore clothes, and he as hell wouldn't care if people saw scars, but he was thinking victorious battle scars. He had a feeling with Ivory this was not the case. Unfortunately, focused on Ivory currently, he did not notice Nova's return yet.
It was then Ivory would begin to speak as he would begin by saying he had no idea what it was like in Panthera as he began to speak of his own position; a position that seemed like Omega or lower from the description. To Feralis, it didn't quite make sense. Even older wolves who could barely hunt were not labelled as worthless. They set the pace for the pack as a pack protected all of it's members till their deaths. Roles and responsibilities may differ on strengths, but every pack member mattered. Besides this though, Ivory would also mentioned being set in cages with humans and having to fight them to the death, or close to it, as he pointed to other scars. 'What kind of tribe is this?' he wondered to himself. It was like the reverse of the Tribe, but he did not understand the motives of either. They had Grimm to contend with, let alone devolving to wanting to kill each-other. For all the spats Feralis had with others, he very rarely actually wanted to kill someone just cause they were human or faunus; make them hurt and fight for sure was something he liked, but kill was something he only reserved for enemies which so far had only been Tribe and now Panthera. Ivory would then flick the chain on his ears, and begin to speak how that was a mark of shame. It made Feralis wonder why he kept it though if that was what it meant and he was no longer part of that group. He stayed silent for now, since Ivory had given him the same courtesy, but he was definitely going to ask it later.
Ivory would then explain the circumstances of his departure from the tribe. He barely survived a grimm attack, had escaped back to his village, got no help, had his mother come after him for being weak, and then almost killer his mother with his semblance. Feralis felt there was a slight contradiction there; 'He almost kills his mother when he was weak; that sounds strong to me. Even if you shouldn't do that to an alpha,' he thought to himself but would continue to remain silent. He was exiled for that it seemed, and sent to a human couple to... "What!?" Feralis said aloud after he spoke of domestication, anger in his own voice at hearing that as he could not stop himself from that outburst. Of all the people that were truly 'animals' Feralis was probably the closest just because of his unique circumstances. The fact others thought you had to domesticate a faunus though...That was messed up. He could tell Ivory was angry about it too. He would continue on to add that part of the exile was also due to getting a cybernetic hand even if he lost the original killing the leader of the tribe. Just because he didn't live with one limb. Feralis felt his own blood boiling the more he heard about this tribe. 'He sacrificed his arm in order to kill an enemy, and was shunned just because he got a replacement to keep fighting with. Even if I don't like that stuff personally, his accomplishment shouldn't have been met with that,' Feralis thought to himself, seeing Panthera as more and more an unfair tribe.
Ivory would give a sad chuckle, and then say it was no wonder he felt as he did; he was never good enough for anyone, not even as a rival though he was thankful for the redeeming qualities. Feralis felt like shaking the guy, but restrained himself for now with some effort. He would pull down his shirt then to cover the scars, and then go onto to say he won't be angry because he didn't want to hurt Feralis with his semblance like he did his mother. As much as Feralis felt like giving bravado there...he held off and nodded silently. 'He has better control than me if anger activates it,' he thought to himself as his own temper was very hard to control and most times he did not bother. Only in moments like these where control of it meant something were when he really could. He took it as it was from Ivory; not a threat, just a warning. Then, surprisingly to Feralis, Ivory would ask about his pack and what it was made of. After all he had heard he had not expected the conversation to go back to that. It was also around this time he finally noticed Princess and Noah, and the smell of food. He figured he may as well say everything now, and bring Princess into this as well at the end of it. "Thank you for telling me this, though it makes me wish we could have fought off more of your tribe in that mission. Your whole tribe is backwards to me; you prove you can survive again and again, have a semblance that singlehandedly almost took down an alpha, you've killed the leader of the Tribe, and they still brand you as weak and worthless. Attacking an alpha I can see why they did what they did, even if I don't agree with it. But to not accept or even acknowledge other abilities than strength and to brand members of their own tribe as useless I don't agree with. Every member of a pack has a different role to fill," he would say with a pause before he would look to Nova then back to Ivory; gesturing they should join her before he continued.
As they both made their way there, Feralis would make a comment ; "Good catch; once we get more fish later we'll have a decent meal." he would simply say as he began bringing the wood together to make a fire with, seeming focused on the task for a moment. "To answer your last question Ivory, as I feel Princess and Noah should hear it too, I come from a pack of actual wolves. I sought shelter with them when I was run out of Vale by the Tribe and they took me in; my semblance helping with that. Despite not being a true wolf, they still accepted me in and let me ascend to alpha in that pack. One of the main reasons I've been to Beacon twice is that I want to protect them, since I attract Grimm. Everyone in a pack has a role that contributes, and no pack member is left to fend for themselves. We protect our weak, young, old, and wounded as a pack should. Hell, with wolves the oldest and weakest ones set the pace for the rest of us because we abandon no packmate till death and they have wisdom along with experience to help lead the rest of us," he would say, answering a bit more than he needed to for Ivory's question and letting Princess know as well. He would look to Princess then, as he had only said this before to Ivory; "We are a pack; and have been for longer than I could care to admit," he would say simply. He would then turn back to Ivory. "As for you not being good enough, only I can decide if you are worthy enough to be a rival; that is not your choice to make. I doubt Princess here sees you as not good enough either. But I do have a question for you Ivory; why do you wear those earrings still, given they signify failure?" he would say and ask, not quite sure how to go about this since he was not good with speaking of feelings and stuff like that and genuinely curious.
As he waited for a response, he would take out a small fire dust crystal and activate it on the wood to get a fire going. He didn't feel like now was the time for patience and doing it the old fashioned way; for now the fire was pretty small but in time it would grow a bit. He would move back to sit cross-legged besides Princess. His eyes would be locked into the growing fire as he would speak, quieter than he usually would. "There was another reason for why I wanted to arrange this event, besides get to know the rest of you despite how long we've been a team, a pack. Till today I knew nothing about my new pack and I intend to...change that. And for you both to get to know me more as well, with how secretive I've been. For all of us to get to know our packmates better. But besides that there is something else we need to discuss too, and this seems the best time to discuss it. With Jessica gone...we need a new leader for this pack. And that leader would need to be one of us; I don't think any of us would want the next new pup being assigned to us to have automatic authority and alpha status," he would say as he would go to reach into his pack and take out a few items; namely three very small logs and three wood carving knives. He would reach over to hand a pair to Princess and Ivory while leaving one to himself. "I don't know if we want to say anything about who should be leader for what ever reason or not, or if we should promote ourselves. We've all lived with one another for a while now, even if we haven't really shared much about ourselves. So if you got anything you want to say or ask, now would be the time. Once we feel satisfied, we carve the initial of who we want as new alpha into the wood and give it to Noah; so he can tally up who has the most votes and let us know which we picked collectively," he would say, thinking the system fair as it was that way. While they all trusted one another, or so he thought, Noah was the universally trusted one not in consideration by Feralis' view. "To...start with, as I feel I should say it. I'm the youngest of the pack, I speak what I think, I've got authority issues, and I got a short temper. Combine that with how lone wolf I've been till now...I may not be the best choice for it. It took me till Jess to even acknowledge you all were my pack, and I can't promise speaking my mind or temper will ever change. All I can promise is...that I do see you all as my pack now, that I protect my pack with my life, and that I'll try my best," he would say with a sigh at first as he listed all his own admitted shortcomings, being honest and straightforward as he always was, before pledging what he would do if he were leader. He would look to Ivory and Nova then, to see if they wanted to say, ask, or add anything themselves. And he would wait for everyone to say their piece before he would decide who he would vote for.

ᴄᴏᴍᴘᴀɴʏ : Feralis and Nova xxx ꜱᴇᴍʙʟᴀɴᴄᴇ : Inactive xxx ᴏᴜᴛꜰɪᴛ : Sweater and pants xxx ᴘᴏꜱᴛ ᴄᴏᴜɴᴛ : 148
Ivory would follow Feralis so they could join Nova. He felt much more comfortable with his shirt back on. He would sit by a pile of wood. He was about to start a fire a traditional way, but then Feralis used fire dust to start it. Ivory would shrug, and sit down, he put his fluffy tail in his lap. He would even start to groom it using his hands. He would flatten the areas that were sticking up. He was still listening.
Feralis would mention that he was apart of a tribe of actual wolves. He would mention it was because of his semblance. Ivory would think back. He had never seen Feralis with his semblance. He'd have to ask about it. He would mention again that they were a pack. Ivory would sit, still focused on his tail. He would then focus on Ivory again, saying that he didn't get pick if he was a rival, Feralis did. He also mentioned that Nova probably didn't see him as a failure. he would ask why he didn't just take them out if they were sign that he was a failure. He would get a curt sigh. "I can't. They used fire to seal the top ring into my ear." He would then take his hand to his left ear. He would then try to twist the top ring, and his ear would move with it. A wince of pain could be seen crossing his face as he did it.
Ivory would get up, and take the rabbit. He would then use a claw on his cybernetic hand to cut open the rabbit's major blood vessels. He would then hang the rabbit. Rabbit tasted better when the blood wasn't all pooled up in it. He would then sit down, his fur stained with the red of blood. Feralis would state that it was better for them all to get to know each other. It made sense, they were all a team, and they were going to have to work together for the foreseeable future. He would sigh. He would have to make sure that Nova heard what he had to say again. He also wanted them to pick a leader. Ivory's ears would flatten against his head. He wasn't ready for this. He was still grieving Jess. He understood the reason why they needed to, but it didn't hurt any less.
"What do you want to know about me?" He wasn't against answering their questions. He just didn't know where to start. He was also using it as an excuse to not carve something in the stick. He would rather talk, and not have to do it.
