Phoenix Maplewood home is what you make of it

her reply echoes what brisbane's already assumed of her: that she had her head and heart set on building something of her own. there was a certain level of appeal to that, doing it right, exactly how you wanted right from the starting line; but then again brisbane didn't exactly mind the challenge that usurping presented either. he offers a small grunt of gratitude when she gives him an official welcoming into the teekon wilds despite that he'd been meandering about it for a short while now. a few weeks, perhaps? something like that; time was not something he was opt to keep judicious track of.

a low chuckle draws from betwixt the blackshark's lips as she inquires as to whether he plans to usurp and that if he did she wanted a front row seat. he recognizes that the last bit is said in jest but still, he's amused all the same. maybe, gaze of twin redsuns turns to the distanced horizon over his companions head as he contemplates for a few moments. it's a vague response but an honest one; though he is never certain where his life will lead him. not everything falls according to plan so he tries not to make too many 'solid' plans. depends, i guess. i'm not real keen on subjugating myself to leadership at the moment. and as far as brisbane is aware a newcomer coming to the borders and usurping ( or trying to ) before even being apart of the pack didn't happen very often. it seemed risky. it was always better to slyly garner support and let the sovereignty crack from the inside, as it had with blackshark bay when he'd challenged grog for beta. as it would have if he'd have stayed around and challenged for alpha.
