Morning had passed some time ago, yet the sun had yet to rise to it's highest point. Alistair was bored, spending his time relaxing before he went to explore the territory he had recently decided to call home. He was happy to be accepted, excited to meet new people, yet simply content with being in this new land by himself, where he didn't have to worry about some aggressive loner appearing out of no where in particular and attacking him for some unstated reason. Today he was not motivated for adventure, though a leisurely conversation with another pack member wouldn't upset him. However, he would have to go find a pack member in order to speak with one. Sighing, he pushed himself up into a sitting position.
It really was time for him to get up and move. Stretching out before he stood up, Alistair debated which direction to take. Choosing at random - literally by spinning in circles and walking a few steps before he paused, caught his balance, then continued in that direction. It was an uncommon tactic, but it helped him be truly random. It also helped him practice not tripping over his own feet, which always helped when you were trying to look like you weren't a fool. Alistair had been walking for a few minutes before he saw someone.
He trotted a few steps to get closer, then called out. "Hello?" It was a female, he now realized. Her fur was black, the complete opposite of his white coat. Alistair hoped she wasn't too busy to speak, but there was no telling unless she spoke to him. Alistair was walking somewhat slowly now and he stopped when he he got close enough that he could hear the female if she replied. He didn't want to crowd her or upset her, he merely wanted to speak with her. And, if she was busy with other things, he would keep exploring in search of someone else nearby.
