Great Bear Wilderness New kids on the block

Floki found himself fascinated as Peregrine spoke about Ragnar at length. He didn't often think of his father, as the viking hadn't been in his life long enough to make a real impression, but when Ragnar did cross his mind, he found he was curious. Thistle Cloud rarely mentioned him, probably because the memory of his loss was still painful. So Floki listened intently, though the Redhawk Alpha soon drew the conversation back to Wildfire.

He described his daughter fondly, though it was still clear that the decision hadn't been made just yet. Floki had to wonder if she would be joining them sooner rather than later -- it sounded that way, if Wildfire had talked with her father about it. Peregrine's last statement wasn't necessarily posed as a threat, but it still made Floki feel a little nervous. "You'll be very lucky to have her, and you'd better take good care of her," he said, and the grey youth's gaze slid away, though he nodded all the same.

Charon didn't seem to be phased by Peregrine's intimidating appearance and gave a confident response that Floki echoed with his body language. His tail tip wiggled appeasingly.
