Redhawk Caldera pumpkin patch party — packtivity

Elwood grinned as Fox greeted him warmly, then placed a paw on top of one of the round, orange objects. "No, I haven't," he admitted, glad that he wasn't the only clueless one. Peregrine arrived shortly afterward, saying something about a "pumpkin patch," and soon other pack members began to join them. Fox flitted around to each wolf, welcoming them individually, and Elwood watched quietly with one paw still resting on top of the pumpkin.

It had been nearly a week since he had joined the ranks of Redhawk Caldera, and though his original intentions had been to just stay temporarily, he already felt more at home than he could have anticipated. He had made a handful of friends -- he glanced around at Ashton, Somnia, and the late-to-arrive Amon -- and was working on earning a trade for himself. He was feeling pretty confident and content as he listened to Fox's announcements.

He didn't know who Finley was, other than when Peregrine had mentioned her name (as a missing wolf) during their first meeting, but upon her return she would be promoted to Beta. Elwood nodded; whoever this Finley was, he was curios to meet her. Fox urged the pack to work together to be successful throughout the winter, and also informed the group that she and Peregrine were hoping to bring a litter of puppies to the pack. Her co-Alpha then encouraged the group to break open the pumpkins and eat them, so Elwood set to work. With teeth and claws, he managed to split his pumpkin and carefully licked at the gooey pulp that emerged. He smacked his lips thoughtfully, then announced, "Tastes pretty good!"
