Swiftcurrent Creek time marches on [pack meeting · r2]

Just before the meeting officially started, a chuff from someone got his attention. His notched right ear turned, followed by a darting glance of his eyes. A pale youngster, seated with Arlette. She wanted the fish, staring at them intently at his paws. To them both, he simply grinned slightly. Quickly, he met Cygnet's eye with a wink. He'd save her a piece, after the meeting of course.

When Akavir began to speak, Ensio turned to listen with his full attention. A series of events he had known nothing about nor had been involved in, halted an open border policy with wolves from two packs; Riverclan and Kvarsheim. But they were encouraged to still uphold friendly relations, just without entry. He grunted softly to affirm his understanding.

He had noticed the small congregation here today. Which Akavir explained in that a few former Creek wolves had departed. Ensio hadn't known them, so their loss to the pack had no impact on him. Then a more interesting subject. Breeding season and couples interested in siring pups. While he was old enough for kids of his own, as a grown man, he did not yet feel the pull. Besides, he had no experience with kids. He would rather focus on building his relationship with Sovereign and their personal growth. 

He and Sovereign were not looked over. His cheeks warmed, ears tilting back sheepishly. A pack hunt? Perhaps Akavir had caught word of their prior success with the old deer some time ago. "Of course, I would be happy to arrange a feast for us all." He declared.

Finally, the big announcement. Akavir had taken Eshe as a mate, who would stand as Alpha Female by his side. As the woman stepped up to speak, he smiled fondly. Even allowed his tail to swish a little. He was happy for them. Eshe seemed a good woman, from what he had seen. He dipped his head. "Congratulations to the both of you."
