Sun Mote Copse Still not butter.

As expected, Towhee didn't exactly jump on the idea. And quite frankly, Phox couldn't blame her. It would be like hooking up with... Liffey, maybe? The thought made his face scrunch up, and he wondered how Wildfire had been able to do it. Hadn't they grown up together? Phox blinked, listening as Towhee went on to suggest that she might bang a "Moonboy," clarifying that she meant one of Moonspear's males. Hadn't she done that last year? And look how that had turned out. The guy had gotten kicked out. Phox suspected the two events were related.

Using puppies as an alliance tool was quite clever, but there were other packs out there, and Moonspear's alliance was a solid one, what with Bronco and Meerkat there, not to mention Towhee and Hydra's friendship. -Maybe it would be smarter to strengthen ties with a pack we aren't already so close with. One strong ally is good, but what if we added another?- Briefly, his mind wandered to Rusalka. -What better way to mend a shaky pack relationship than by uniting the two?- Not only that, but it would possible placate Alyx's wishes to return to her friend. A swapping of wolves, as it were.
