Swiftcurrent Creek time marches on [pack meeting · r2]

A duet broke the silent air of the Creek territory, pulling Ensio out and away from his business. He listened with interest. He had never heard any wolves call out in such a summoning tone like this before. And certainly not together. Something was up.

He had not exactly been as social as he hoped to have been, but he had made progress. He kept busy. He had bonded over a hunt shared between him, Eshe and Sovereign. Had grown closer, sharing personal details with Arlette. Pack living never came so easily to the young man. You had to give him credit for giving the Creek an honest shot.

Heeding the call, he came from his station by the river, where he had been working that day. Scooped up between his teeth were the fruits of his labor - three chunky silver scaled fish. After the initial catch, he had left them out to dry in the autumn sun, for their skin to harden and flake. It was his latest attempt at a new experiment. A twist on a classic snack. If all went well, the fishy flavor would be drawn out nicely, for those who could appreciate it. He thought his lady friends, Sovereign and Arlette, may appreciate the gesture.

Much to his surprise, he was the second to pop onto the scene, where Akavir and Eshe sat together, curiously. Arric, the Beta he had met before was already there. The Duskfire felt that pang of awkwardness shoot through him again. Glacial eyes landed warmly on the pair, with the most subtle dip of his chin. Passing by Arric, he chuffed to him in a soft greeting. Then he picked himself out a spot, with room to spare, prizes at his feet, and waited.
