Stone Circle tell everybody i'm on my way

huh, weird, but yeah -- mix is right. ^^' seems like it's an automatic filter that's doing that. and it isn't even april 1st. :p

It didn't really occur to Nikai that Alya might shield his missing leg from anyone -- after all, he was home here, so he didn't expect it necessary. Nikai hadn't expected anyone to greet him with anything less than friendly, either. He was taken aback by the woman who came to greet him and Alya. Her tone wasn't unfriendly per say, but it was definitely not friendly either. Lacklustre was the best to describe it, perhaps. Nikai decided not to think too much of it -- maybe she just had a bad day, or wasn't very expressive -- but Alya immediately jumped in to defend him.

Just as he was about to jump in another showed up. He didn't really want to be throwing around his heritage or such just to get the apparently pack mate to simmer down; at this point, they were outsiders, after all, and she had every right to demand who they were. "Alya, it's --" But as another Easthollow wolf showed up, Nikai's attention shifted. Apparently Alya knew the wolf who showed up, and Nikai greeted with a friendly smile -- both to the newly arrived male as well as the female Alya had spat words at: "Hiya. I'm Nikai, Valette's son." The same words that Alya had spoken, but with a lot more sunshine in 'em. "So we're here for her, to visit..." He glanced at Alya for a moment to see how the next words would fall before he added them on: "... Actually, to stay for a while." No place was forever, but Easthollow was still home and the thought of settling down here for a while warmed Nikai's heart.
