The petite red wolf looked more fox than dire as she crested a hillside in earnest. At its peak she was immediately drenched in the dawning light of sunrise, her fur painted in those glorious autumnal orange and yellow hues. Her excitement carried visibly. A smiling mouth held ajar, tall ears poised at the top of her head, and a long tail swaying from side to side.
Fall was here. Her favorite time of year! And every single day she awoke long before the rest of the world to welcome it to stay.
Predator and prey alike had yet to stir, but that made things all the more perfect for Soul. The stillness of day breaking. The quiet surrender of a morning yet acknowledged. She basked in the fleeting moment, watching as the brilliant star crept its way out of slumber. Silently reveling in its glory. Then, as the first lark played its song, she removed herself from the hill, rolling down its side in a fit of laughter and sliding to her feet at its base. A smile reached from ear to ear.
And a pair of eyes scanned the forest in search of fun.

 A pup no more, one particular wolf did not have to slyly sneak away as the first rays of light began to extend their reach across the land. No, he was out of is puphood and entering that strange status of becoming an adult. Of course, his body may have been growing but there really was no taking the pup out of Red Leaves, oh no. He still launched himself from the cave as soon as the sun rose, barking about going hunting.
Except he wasn't the greatest hunter. Nor was he good at keeping track about which direction he was headed. Usually, his mother had been sending her own crow companion to follow after. But today, Red Leaves had slipped past the feathery avian.
Only to get side tracked half way through his excited dash, racing around trees and letting his paws take the lead... and coming to a half as a strange sound caught his attention.
Red Leaves slid to his rump, ears alert and head tilted in curiosity. Normally, the birds were the only sounds of the early morning. Sometimes the soft clatter of hooves from surprised deer (which he was supposed to hunt). Yet this sound had been different. New.
Explorer Red Leaves was on the hunt! He leaped back to his feet and took off like an arrow, ears swiveling towards the sounds and nose sniffing around.
He slowed to a trot, then a walk, and finally a stop. The sound had disappeared. He stood excitedly, trying with all his might to find the source. He was quite unaware (like usual) of his surroundings. And a pair of golden eyes that scanned the forest.

It was no wonder the stranger could not survey her. The moment his footfalls became audible, Soul pressed firmly against the Earth; so much so that she might as well have become it. The world was tinged in the burnt hues of a dying season and she, blessed by the harvest moon itself, wore the pelt to match. It was reactive of her, which in and of itself not entirely unusual except... her reactions were generally geared toward curiosity as opposed to fright. Nonetheless, she blended effortlessly into the fields and waited with baited breath to see who it was that approached.
...And when it was a wolf, she let that breath out in a long sigh.
Greymane was always careful, and for as much as Soul believed herself to be the bold to his wary; she often could not shake that part of him which clung to her own psyche. The cautionary tales he wove in an effort to protect her ran deep like the roots of the trees. Run, when you are uncertain. Stay alive at all costs. But he was a stag, and she a wolf. She would never think to harm him personally but had matured well enough to know that others might. They were different, at least through another's eyes. And sometimes, in some ways, even through her own.
In silent tribute of her mentor, Soul gave it a moment or two before rising. Her full (and rather dainty) height brought the weeds to her shins as she looked on, silent yet ready to bolt if a threat was actualized. She was small but quick, and trusted her footing well enough. Another gift of Greymane.
Her elegant facade was stoic before him, waiting to interpret intent. She had become well versed in maintaining an 'air' of composure...
Even as her insides writhed with excitement. Kyrieko Omg ;; THE DELAY! I know we had loose plans here? If those need to change that's totally fine! I still want them to meet! <3

Red Leaves was panting, both from the exertion of energy that lead him out here, and from the excitement of finding something new. He would have the best tale to go home and tell his mother and brother! While he'd try to make it sound just as interesting as his mother's stories about the magical wood, Red Leaves tended to babble his stories from sheer excitement of sharing them. Which meant they weren't very thought out and usually were hard to follow as his brain just spilled words as fast as he could.
Looking around, the young male tried to see what his senses could tell him. Something he was not the best at. His nose said there was something out here... Taking a step, then another, movement caught the corner of his eye. Twisting to see what it was, Red Leaves suddenly froze.
His heart rate tripled and the look of pure joy on his face was, hopefully, non-threatening. Without much thought, Red Leaves bound toward the other wolf.
"OH HI! How are you? Did you here those sounds before? They sounded like so much fun! Or maybe it was someone having fun?" He babbled, skidding to a stop in as graceful a way as was possible for him. The other wolf had a pretty red fur color. And wasn't anyone he had ever seen before.
"Do you live around here? I've never seen you. I think I live around here?" Red Leaves tilted his head, looking up as if he expected to see something (or someone) in the sky. "I'm Red Leaves Falling!" He added, tail wagging a mile a minute as he gave the... shewolf a lopsided canine grin. Shia bean OMG TAG FINALLY I am sorry ;; I still have nothing really planned for this poor boy, so if you're up to it, we can totally still work on something with them? Even if just bff's 8D
