"Small but mighty, eh." To be honest Dante enjoyed the small pack size. It had eased his transition from loner to pack wolf a little more than jumping into a huge pack would have. There weren't quite so many unfamiliar faces to learn and meet. He still hadn't made his way through the ranks even now. "I'm glad it shows, though. It feels good, to know that you know." He really did care a lot about the pack already. It was home.
Dante thought of his own meeting with Blue Willow and nodded. "I've no doubt! She seems truly capable. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting your son." He grinned. "Your daughter, on the other hand... something tells me she didn't fall to far from the family tree." He chuckled. "She's got some balls, figuratively speaking." He knew Peregrine wouldn't mind his speaking frankly, though normally he would tone it down. Just another thing he loved about hanging out with him.
He winced as Peregrine recounted his fall. "Ouch. Tough break, no pun intended. How much longer you stuck before the warden lets you out?" His situation had to feel like being imprisoned. Dante wondered if Blue Willow could estimate that sort of thing or if it was just guessing and waiting. Even infirm, though, the Alpha made an imposing sight. He really was a magnificent creature.
"Only a few," Dante admitted. "Blue Willow and your charming daughter Junior. I'm pretty bad at that sort of thing." He shrugged. "I'm slowly making the rounds though. You've got a pretty awesome group, at least that much I can tell. I'm really glad I joined." I'm glad I met you, he thought, for he knew very well why he had made the decision he did.
