Welcome to Gaia! ::

Derecho hadn't been angry at Terreis in a while now - and Aleu's advice had been to wait, let things cool off and then go and look for her. Or something to that effect...and Derecho certainly intended to follow through on that, as soon as he figured out just how long he should wait. I mean on average it took him a few days to calm down after a fight - but it took Aleu longer, and cripes Tempest now a days took forever to simmer down so he deduced through his sisters examples that females took longer to calm down then males.

And Terreis was temperamental to begin with so adding that to the average between Aleu and Tempest gave him...ah hell he didn't know. He should probably go and look for her now...and for probably the hundredth time in the last few days angled his path northwards. now he just had to follow through with the intent, every other time he'd reached the pack boarders and ended up following that instead of continuing north like he meant to do. Second guessing himself at the last minute. Not this time - this time it would be different. This time he would follow through! and resolute in that fact he lifted his head and trotted through the wood towards the northern boundary.

Derecho wasn't paying much attention to his surroundings, his mind was far to far away to concentrate on such things and so when he popped out of the bush in front of Terreis it took him several strides to even register that she was there - damn silent female, he thought to himself as he skid to a hurried stop to avoid running straight into her.

How on earth had he neglected to notice her earlier, he should have scented her at least but such was the trouble of not paying attention and he blinked at her for a few moments until the surprise left his face. Once he'd come to terms that yes she had actually appeared before him he tried to figure out why. This proved much harder, always a guarded wolf Terreis stared at him with blank neutral eyes which made guessing her intentions next to impossible.

"Terreis" He greeted her carefully, and unlike her couldn't stop the hint of wary pleasure at seeing her again from flitting swiftly across his face.

It was good to see him again? Well that was a good enough clue for Derecho - she must not be mad at him still or she wouldn't have come back and she certainly wouldn't say it was good to see him. It was a promising start and he gave her a wolfish grin "It's good to see you too' He admitted "I've missed our daily discussions the last few weeks - poor Aleu's had to listen to my whining in your stead" He told her with a soft chuckle.

"Did you ah..find your pack?" He asked her almost hesitantly, it might not be a good idea to bring up the thing they had fought about - but hell it was the big tree in the meadow now wasn't it? Best to just get it over with and perhaps she'd come back because they hadn't been there and she was just passing through again. Derecho wasn't sure what he would think if that were the case.

Derecho snorted slightly, Aleu might not mind but their discussions tended to go in far different direction then the one he used to have with Terreis. Their mindsets were just far to different...not that Derecho minded that, he liked his sister for who she was and Terreis for who she was....even if she was a so called warrior wolf.

"Not the same after life away?" He questioned mildly, from the sounds of it this pack was very close knit and those who grew up there were probably fairly sheltered when it came o the world beyond their boarders. Maybe..Terreis had changed somewhat in her time away from her sisters. Maybe she'd changed enough to accept a different type of life..."I'm glad you found your brother, I should have realized how much he meant to you before and not said what I did. I was angry..and not really paying much attention to anything else" He apologized.

He was somewhat heartened by her words. That life was behind her now? Did that mean she was searching fr a new life? He could only assume so "And....with that life behind you where will you go now?"

Well now that they had gotten the apologies out of the way Derecho didn't see any point on driving them over a cliff - best to just let t go at their mutual sorries. Saying anything more would just mak them both feel worse about what had been said - it was enough to know that they hadn't really meant the words said in anger. Even if the beliefs behind them were still there, they could work around that.

"Pig headed son of Alpha huh?" He calld out as she started to walk off "I have it on good authority that that pig-headed beast gets a bit bored with all the shy wolves in his pack. Thinks he needs a challenge - like say...a feminist mule-headed temperamental warrior." he suggested in a light off handed one. "You know..as long as she quits trying to drown puppies and such" He added in the same tone, making sure she knew it was meant in jest only.

Derecho snorted slightly at her comment "Ah yes..all that carrying them about and such" He agreed "Guess...you'll just have to learn to deal with them when they show up" He remarked on the puppy issue in an amused tone, huffing softly when she licked his cheek..he hoped she didn't expect him to turn into one of those romantic lovey dovey types just cause she brought her pretty spotted hide close to his. Despite this thought however he did bump her with his nose lightly.

"Well, I guess if you can give up drowning puppies I can make an effort to care enough to recall long names" He allowed after a few moments "Maybe I'll have to get myself one of those fancy slave types you supposedly have. A nice timid female..what do you think? Then she could remember the names for me..." He continued in a conversational tone - but ducked away as he finished just in case Terreis decided to retaliate to his jabs in a more physical fashion.

Derecho of course would never consider keeping a slave and he hoped she knew that as he looked back her with laughing eyes.

"Truth" He agreed with a slight quirk of his mouth as he watched her eyes narrow at the comment. It would certainly be an interesting path for the both of them - considering their respective natures, he doubted very much they would end end up like his mother and father had been once, but that was fine with him and he was willing to give their unknown path a try.

Just to badger her a bit more he continued on with his comment "They're far to mouthy, you'd end up beating them all the time and nothing would ever get done" He told her with a smile before bounding off through the woods to escape whatever wrath that comment might bring forth.
