Menelaus heaved a sigh and gazed down upon the wolf as he was seeing Chiv do so. A lost pup, hurt and tortured day by day with memories he figured. "Sorry, I'm brand new to this sorta thing. Let's re-try. My name is Menelaus. You may hear Merrill, the other wolfess here call me by Mene-Pup. Either, or a new name is fine by me." He gave his biggest wolfish grin and let his tail wag merrily celebrating a new member before it had even truly been confirmed.
Mene-Pup felt a little bad though, no matter what emotion he felt he always made a grand show of it. Especially in moments like this.
Marrihk was confused, was this wolf an alpha? He'd portrayed the traits and even danced the dance of alpha's when being approached by a new wolf in his territory. That he respected but, he was soon a changed wolf. the wolf before him, Menelaus, was now apologizing. New? To admit that so soon would be a mistake he'd never forget if it came by the wrong wolf.
But, for now, he appreciated the attempt at being playful and at Chiv's defense for him. It was all really homely and he loved being cared for. At all this his tail began to wag and he smiled a bit brighter and so his eye's seemed to glow a more vibrant purple.
"Thank-you, both. For permitting me into your territory, a complete stranger with no where to go. No hopes of surviving on my own. Not in this world or life time. Thank-you." He nearly pleaded with his voice. Begging that if Menelaus had any thought to kick him free of his eye sight that maybe he'd think twice.
But, Menelaus had no intention of such nonsense.
