Ouroboros Spine Three demon seeds

@Vectra @Tyrande Nightshade @Creidne Still need posts from you prior to the end of the meeting unless you're on absence for the entire duration! Thanks for posting, everyone else! This round will end September 16.

Slowly, wolves filed in one after another. A hulking, scarred creature came first. Ptarmigan could only look at him for a short while before she had to direct her gaze elsewhere, mostly because his vacant expression disturbed her. Mordecai came next, and though the Endore watched him carefully as he took a seat near the demonic first arrival, she nodded to him.

A dark-haired male came next, though he lingered on the fringe, and Ptarmigan wasn't interested in forcing him any closer. She grinned broadly when Viggo arrived, and he took his place next to her, which was probably his rightful place anyway. Cara arrived with a question on her lips that the Endore didn't answer for the moment, and then Kaname came last. She noted the way the chocolate male greeted the Beta female, but assumed it was affection. Neither of them had earned her suspicion, but neither had earned her respect, either.

No one else arrived, leaving Ptarmigan with a rather sour opinion if the "mighty" Ouroboros wolves, as Kaname had called them. “Hi,” she greeted, for a moment managing to sound sweet before shattering her own illusion. “Few of you have bothered introducing yourselves to me, so I am doing it for you.”

“I am Ptarmigan,” she began, “your Alpha. Many of you seem to think you can ignore me, but you forget yourselves. I put down your former Alpha and bested your selected champion, so you don't have that choice. You follow me now.” It was probably the most uninspiring speech in the world.

“Winter is on its way, and I am unimpressed. I have seen no demonstration of this pack's supposed fortitude. I have seen no teamwork, and no initiative, except from my own man.” Here she gestured to Viggo, then cast a critical gaze over them all. This would make or break this pack. She, despite her responsibilities, didn't really care either way. “Tell me why you deserve to be here, if you do not care for your leader and do not care to show your worth among your peers.”
