Welcome to Gaia! ::

Crispin hadn't spoken to his brother in what felt like far too long, and at first had been too proud to admit fault. However, with the passing of the days, and classes happening, they were beginning to grow up. Things like what they wanted to be when they grew up, had thus far been a question left unspoken between them. The serious faced grimm boy wanted to know his brother was okay, or if he had a direction.

Not to mention, his own confusion wasn't making this easier. I'm supposed to have it all together, and I can't even make up my mind... Crispin's shoulders sagged slightly as he frowned. Finally, the time between their last speaking had grown too great. Occasionally they’d share comforting hugs or a passing hi to one another in the hall ways.

He wanted to feel closer to his brother than that. That wasn’t good enough. If they were to be pack mates, he wanted to be involved in all of their lives. Especially one of the most important beings to him in all of continents combined. It was time for a real talk between them, to catch up and maybe see about just hanging out even. Crispin had slipped a note into Kobe's desk before the other boy had sat down.

'Meet me out by the garden, see you soon bro :]'
- Cris

Sitting down, he impatiently swung his feet over the edge of the bench as his tail idly flicked back and forth in time to his restless legs.

Crispin's tail flared up as he gave a cry of surprise. "AHH! Oh! Hey bro!" The longer haired twin burst out laughing as he quickly recovered from the startle. He didn't mind being scared, and easily recovered. Grinning toothily he pulled the other into a bear-like hug. "Sweet, you made it! I tried to write really clearly..it was kinda hard. But I didn't ask anyone!" The other boy grinned at the other grimm as he pulled back, proud of his twin.

Pausing for a moment he gave the other a considering look. "I'm sorry it's been so long since we really hung out, I've missed you. I've been lame and trying to keep up with school. And figure out what I maybe wanna do, ya know?" Crispin smiled softly clasping a clawed paw over the others shoulder before sliding off the bench tail wagging.

"Hey do you have class any time soon? If not, come on! Let's go explore the garden together~" He offered, with a smile forming on his face. After a moment's pause the other tilted his head. "How've you been Kobe?" He asked as he bounced away a couple steps and looked to him, with an expectant genuine smile.

Crispin nodded, poking his tongue out."Yeah you did!" He pawed at Kobe's sweater as he bit his ear. A little growl sounding as he nipped at the other grimm boy in return. When his brother frowned, he glanced away. "Honestly I forget my own sometimes.." Crispin admitted with a small frown. As patient as the boy was, he was equally restless and a bit forgetful, especially with homework.

"Oh!" He heard the other proudly state what he wanted to be. The child's face lit up with consideration. "Helping people sound really awesome! He looked thoughtful, his tail swishing furiously when an idea occurred to him. "What if I became a cop? Then we can both help out!" Given he'd run ahead a bit, the other came crashing carting into him again, resulting in his laughing.

With a bit of effort, Crispin lifted the smaller grimm up and spun him around in his embrace. After the turn, he gently set him back on the ground.

"I'm fine! I think I just gotta...keep putting myself out there if I want to be a good alpha! And stop worrying so much. It doesn't get anything done." He bounced away from his sibling a few steps he flashed him a toothy grin. Crispin's fears and doubts evaporated for the now.

Next he wiggled his clawed digits at the other to initiate a game of tag. "Since you got me, guess that makes me It huh?" Crispin added as he took a step towards him ears perked. The young grimm tried not to giggle as he made a growling noise to add to his playful antics.

"You think so? Yeah Kobsters, maybe you’re right. I think that's what I'ma do." He agreed with a nod of his head and a wide toothy grin. While he didn't mean to make the other dizzy, it was meant to be playful. Tilting his head he took a step back as he listened to Kobe.

"Well if we let Kee be alpha I think he'd be good at leading us...I've been thinking ‘bout that since he gave up his dream of becomin the leader of our pack." He rubbed his arm. "I wanna be one too, but I like that idea! We should all talk together about it later with Tobias too!" He chirped in reply.

"I just want whats best for you and me both Kobe. I'll love you no matter what too!" Crispin assured his twin.

Racing around, his tail swished as his ears rolled back. His eyes were focused on his twin as he dashed around after him. He dived at one point after Kobe, missing just barely. "Hehe! You are pretty fast! But so am I~" Crispin called out in a sing song voice. Huffing he bounced after him grasping for his sweater to try and pull him into a hug, and announce the other as being tagged.

Crispin wasn't upset at the mentioning of the change in leadership, if anything he was a little regretful. While the boy did want to grow up to be a strong protector, he didn't need to be leader to accomplish that. He could help his friends and packmates by just being who he was, a title didn't make him suddenly less of a grimm just because of that. It made him a little sad his brother prefered Keegan as their leader, but the fact he still had his brother was good enough for the young boy.

His tail swished as he considered how things in the future might work. Keegan had protected his brother many times...and he knew Tobias and them seemed to like one another. Crispin realized with a sudden pang in his chest that he hadn't always been a perfect brother, or even that great of one maybe. He was just glad Kobe forgave him and still wanted to hang out with him. Part of his wish to be Alpha had to been to protect them both, even if he was confused on what it meant to be a leader. What Crispin really wanted what was best for his Pack. Keegan had given up his dreams to join them, and Crispin could change that by stepping back.

Cris had other dreams, just because one star went out didn't make his skies any less bright!

Laughing at the playful growl from his brother, Crispin zipped away before Kobe could even finish speaking."I'm already waaaaaaaaay ahead of you!" He moved quickly around a pillar and dived into some bushes to use them as a makeshift hiding spot. He crouched down in the brush, half certain the other would find him based on senses alone but it was fun to play a short little game of hide 'n seek anyway.
