 Sophia wandered around, not really caring where she went. It was a nice day out and she just enjoyed being in the sun. Leaping onto a log that lay by a small creek the gray female sat down and stretched a bit.
"I wonder what mother and father are doing." She said not having seen them in a few months, and her siblings hadn't seen her since her teen years. She was looking for a place to belong and somewhere to settle down and have a family. That seemed far off for her though, having been so scared of pack life, being too controlled and not being able to do what she wants anymore.

 It could have been positively brilliant outside, but Fubar wouldn't have noticed. He carried a personal little stormcloud with him everywhere, a miasmic haze of negativity that hung over his head and deluded his thoughts. He was well aware of it, but had no intention of letting it get away. He really rather liked it there.
He wandered -- no, moped, that was a more appropriate term -- along the side of the creek. Novacaine was off with that stupid lynx of his, the pair of them probably having some wonderful adventure, and they'd left him here all by himself. He could slip off into the creek and drown and nobody would even care!
Well, except the creek wasn't really that deep. But never mind that. If he were knocked unconscious and landed face-first in it, THEN he could drown, and wouldn't they feel sorry?
His ear flicked as he heard someone talking. He waited to hear a response, but didn't, and so thought they were probably talking to themself. Well, that wasn't so strange, at least not where he was from -- half his family were bona-fide nutsos. Talking to yourself was pretty much par for the course.
Wondering which of his wacky relatives it could be this time, the bright blue wolf veered off course to investigate, and realized quickly that the stormy-grey female his eyes laid upon was definitely not a relative. For one, he had never seen her before, and more importantly, she looked absolutely like no one he knew
He stopped in his tracks and openly ogled her as though perhaps she might be a hallucination.

Eyes rested on the rippling water and the gray female hummed softly to herself as she moved down towards the water and just laied down in it, cooling off herself. She laughed and shook her head letting water fall back to the ground.
It was refreshing and she'd always loved the water, and often found herself swimming when she got the chance. But when the wind picked up a unfimilar scent crossed her nose and she sat up, standing on all fours. Showing her teeth she glanced around and eventually saw an orange capped head with pink ears.
Sophia looked at him, his color was brillant and caught her eye, after all she hated her storm gray coloring, so bland compared to her siblings who has the green of her father. She relaxed a little and turned her head on its side. "What are you donig staring at me?"

He tilted his head back at her. The curving arrow marks over his eyes quirked at an odd angle. "What are YOU doing?" He asked, although her question made much more sense. He nodded toward the water. "Trying to drown yourself?"
The question wasn't asked so much in sarcasm as genuine, morbid curiosity -- as though he rather hoped she was.

She shook the water off her fur and glared at him. Trying to drown herself? Why on Earth would she do that? She walked out of the creek and looked over him. He looked like someone painted without looking at the colors.
"No i was not, i like to swim. Why are you being a creep and staring at me like you've never seen another wolf?"

"And why are YOU being snappish with someone who's asking a perfectly valid question?" He shot back.
He rolled back onto his haunches and gave a long-suffering sort of sigh, as though he were quite used to being abused -- which, to his mind, he was. "And anyway, there's not enough water in there to really swim." He said, although he hadn't any idea how deep it actually was. "You'll just wade around and get muddy."

She glared at him, what gave him teh right to snap at her? "Im not snapping at you. I don't like being watched." She said and shrugged at the mention of mud.
"My fur color is ugly anyways, may as well get some character." She sat infront on him and sniffed at him. "Whats your name?"

Fubar actually thought it was rather pretty -- grey was his favorite color, if he had to have something as stupid as a favorite color -- but he wouldn't be caught dead saying that. "Well if you don't like to be watched, you should pick some place more private. Anybody could walk through here."
He stubbornly refused to leave from his place, his haunches firmly planted where he sat. "And my name is Fubar. I know it's a stupid name. My stupid parents gave it to me."

Rolling her eyes she looked over the arrows on his face. "Fubar is a nice name." She said rather calmly, not taknig her eyes off his coloring. It was so bright and she liked it. "Mine is Sophia, at least yours in one of a kind." Sophia looked to him and then around thinking that maybe he had a pack with him.
It wouldn't be good if she wandered into pack lands, again. It hadn't ended well and she was badly hurt for a long time. "Are you alone?"

He wrinkled his nose. Fubar was certainly not a nice name and he knew it. He was fairly certain she was making fun of him.
He couldn't think of anything negative to say about her name, so he ignored it and answered her question instead.
"Well I'm not right now," he said, as though this were both self-evident and a very dumb question to ask. "I'm talking to you."

She laughed softly and nodded, "Well i guess that is true. But i meant is this your pack lands? I don't want to intrude where i shouldn't be." Sophia told him and relaxed a bit more wrappnig her tail around her body.
"At least you had the courage to talk to me, instead of staring through teh bushes."

"Oh. Yeah, I think this is pack territory," he said, and glanced dismally around himself. "Or maybe just outside. I'm not sure where the borders are, really."
He didn't pay attention to details like that. It was somebody else's job to mind the border and keep him safe and all that business. "Don't you have a pack of your own? Or a family or something?"

She nodded, "Well then i'll make sure to be careful." She said and stood up motioning for him to come with her.
"Yes i have a family, and a pack that i left long ago. I don't see them much anymore." Sophia explained and looked over at him. "What about your family?"

She wanted him to follow? How bizarre! She probably wanted to trap him somewhere, maybe lead him into a pit of quicksand. But that would be exciting, at least. He rose to his paws to trail after her. "You just...left? Just like that?"
The idea had never occurred to him that he could just get up and leave.
"My family is huge. I don't even know everybody's name. Not that I care to."

"Yes you can just leave, your an adult aren't you?" She asked and chuckled. "It wasn't right for me to stay there i had to find my own home, and possibly a mate. You know that whole deal."
Sophia found what she was looking for and smiled brightly. A large pond that had a small waterfall. "Now i can swim, not drown."
