Silver Creek I, I've been trying to fix my pride

The golden wolf thumped his tail on the ground a few times, giving Skylaris a smile as he realized, quiet happily, that he had not awakened her. As she mentioned the pups, he shrugged his broad shoulders. For being a female, he had a pretty masculine body. Not that that was a bad thing. If anything, Ikari would like to keep it that way. "Oh, that sucks," he said, wrinkling his nose. "'fraid I can't relate to ya'." And for that he was glad.

Another question was asked and Ikari cocked his head to the right. He followed her gaze to the creek water. "Pretty good, I guess. Life in a pack is, well, different. But not necessarily bad." He turned his attention back to the woman and gave her a smile, bright eyes falling shut.
