Shateiel: *lounges beneath some tall rose bushes*

Aningan: D: Bored! *prods her sister*

Shateiel: :/ *is not amused and tries to ignore her*

Fantasia: *raises brow at Shateiel, glancing at the wolf pestering her briefly* In need of a task?

Aningan: *swivels to face Fantasia, ears back but head high* I wouldn't mind something to do!

Shateiel: *raises to her alpha, bowing her head*

Fantasia: *nods to them* Good. I would like one of you to patrol the border during the dawn shift and one of you to help look after the pups. *Thigns had been slacking lately in The Order, and he was growing more restless by the week. There was somethign coming, he knew it - but he couldn't name it*

Bianca: -wiggles out a bit, barking a few times to figure out if anyone she knew was about-

Aningan: I call dibs on patrolling! Pups...no thanks. *Raises all the way onto her paws, jumping up, and trots a few feet back, looking back and forth between the two*

Shateiel: *Frowns, not to good with pups either quite honestly. She never had any good stories to tell them to keep them busy, and wasn't ever good at giving commands.* Ah...alright. *She murmured.*

Fantasia: Only momentarily. *To Shateiel, sensing the reluctance in her murmur* Although I know another who might be more willing to do so, if you would rather help our newest member prune the Thorn Barrier. *Although who to nab if so . . . And speak of the devil, there was a pup wandering right there! One of Willow's, he recalled*

Bianca: -blinks and wanders near Fantasia, stretching he back legs as she did so, because she just woke up from a nap!- What... about Thorn Barrier?

Aningan: *looks up as she heard the paws, spotting the pup. And immediately she shyed, a strange behavior for the usually dominant female. The little one's barking pulling her ears back.*

Shateiel: *Her eyes brightened at the chance of duty, preferring the roses anyday.* That would be grand. *Her ears perked as well as she heard the pup, watching her and noticed another join her.*

Marjani: *suddenly pops up beside Bianca, following as she ventures toward their uncle.*

Fantasia: Very well. Kelly Clementine and his companion should be near their den to the northeast. *sighs quietly to himself as another pup comes, the first now stretching and coming close* Just Rose Guard duties, little one. *To be honest, he hadn't really seen these particular pups up close, only from a distance. He didn't count them as blood-kin since Willow had them . . . A fact he was rather irked with; Tera could have just as easily had them*

Shateiel: Wonderful, *she paused, grinning, planning on dropping these stray pups off with this Kelly Clementine, curious about the stranger. Curious as to how Fantasia would act around the pups, she watched. His reaction was normal, but was she sure there was a hint of annoyance in his eyes as he looked over them?*
Aningan: I should better head off then. See ya later *the young female padded off, not wanting to linger longer then she had too*

Marjani: *trots up beside her sister and stares up at her alpha* You're momma's brother, right?

Fantasia: . . . No. Your blood mother has no relation to me. *Awkward in his perpetual seriousness around these younglings, unable to see himself as their "uncle"* But your second mother is my sister, yes. What are your names?

KC: *ploughing the dirt beneath some of the bramble, getting the earth to soften so that tomorrow Natter could go planting without having to bug him every few minutes to dig up soil for her*

Shateiel: *she looked back and forth between her alpha and the pups. He didn't seem to know what to do. She stepped forward, smiling at the pups, prompting herself to talk* Come now. The alpha has much to do. You can ask him questions later. Let's go find Kelly.

Marjani: *Her brow upturned, confused* That's what I said, isn't it? *To her momma was Tera, mommy Willow. But her tail wagged as he said yes* Then you are my uncle! I'm Marjani and this is Bianca!*She frowned, looking up at the darker wolf, her colors menacing. Hadn't Tera said something about these types of wolves?*

Fantasia: Yes, yes, uncle . . . *A reluctant one in this case, though he was happy for his sister - she had always wanted to expand the family, and sooner or later he would have to just accept the fact that the litter wasn't hers. But Fanta was a stubborn one, especially with the established heirarchy* Well then, Marjani, Bianca, I am Fantasia. This is Shateiel, a member of the pack.

KC: Eh what? *lifts his head, some dirt stuck to his face, cocking an ear* Someoen say me name?

Shateiel: *Pulling the pups along seemed easier said then done. But she was thankful at least that Fantasia was answering them, or in this case, her. She wondered if things would be easier for him being around them as they got older and were able to participate in the pack more. Noting the other male, she gave a grin. This must be Kelly. She padded toward him* Yes. Can you watch pups tonight?

Marjani: Fantasia *She smiled at the name*. It sounds pretty. *Her ears pulled back as she looked to Shateiel once more, but didn't speak up until the female padded off* She looks scary.
