Wapun Meadow Emotions you don't understand upon viewing the sunset

For a while it was just Dragomir and the butterfly alone in the meadow. He honed in on it in the singular way he did when he was intensely focused. Perhaps that was why he failed to see the pair of adults and their four pups coming toward him. The butterfly was black with numerous dots of pale yellow and pale blue lining the outer edges of its wings. Dragomir didn't have a hope in hell of catching it—butterflies seemed to have almost supernatural senses and it would become aware of him long before he got that close, no matter how stealthy he was—but soon it didn't matter. It sense the large group of wolves and fluttered away on its own.

Out of the grass popped an aggressively cheerful black-furred pup. She could have been his doppelganger but for the handful of silver hairs that had begun to sprout from Dragomir's hackles and the fact she was a little larger (due to being a fair bit older than him). Ordinarily Dragomir was outgoing and confident, but when faced with a complete stranger his size with oodles more confidence than he had, he found his words muddled in his mouth. Hi, was all he was able to get out before things escalated rapidly.

Now there were two others: another black pup, this one shot through with threads of gold, and a grey pup who was thin and little, even littler than Dragomir, who was tall for his age. He was a darker shade than Isilmë. If Dragomir felt unsure about the appearance of one unfamiliar pup, then he was utterly overwhelmed by there now being three. It didn't help that they spoke in a language he didn't understand, and for Dragomir, who had three languages and snatches of a fourth from his missing uncle, that was quite a feat.

Thank god Isilmë showed up when she did, for now a fourth unfamiliar pup made themselves known, again speaking in that strange new tongue, and Dragomir just wanted to go home already. He didn't appreciate the disadvantaged feeling of being surrounded by strangers all of a sudden; any normal friendliness he might have displayed to one or two pups was hidden beneath a wave of abrupt anxiety. Thankfully, Isi was much more extroverted and was quick to march up and ask what they all wanted. Yeah. What did they want with him? Isi, he murmured quietly to his sister, don't like this.

@Sadiq is welcome to join for progress toward their trade, but please no more after that! Wasn't expecting this to turn into a large group thread. So that this doesn't get too bogged down, I'm going to put a time limit of 5 days per person to post. If someone hasn't posted within 5 days of their turn starting, they become skippable. This is just so we can keep things moving! ^_^

Post order is Dragomir > Lainie > Helios > Zephyr > Polaris > Isilmë
