Redhawk Caldera I made a deal with the man on the moon

My pup is snoozing right next to me...snoring away!

"I guess that's pretty rude," Elwood agreed reluctantly, trying to envision Finley's description of the coast. She kind of sucked at painting a picture with her words, so he resolved that he would see the ocean himself someday. He wasn't sure when he would make that happen, but by god, he would feel the sand between his toes if it was the last thing he did.

He tilted his head, trying to think of anything particularly "Beta-y" that he had done in her absence. The pack was full to the brim, so there hadn't been any new members to accept, and luckily he hadn't had any more run-ins with trespassers. He had delivered a message for Peregrine, but that was something that anyone could have done, really. Telling Finley how boring the last few days had been obviously wasn't an option, so he had to make something up. Of course.

"You totally missed it. The biggest bear showed up while you were gone," he said, his eyes growing wide as he spoke. "Fox was busy being pregnant, and Peregrine was...doing Alpha stuff. So I had to take care of it by myself," he boasted, knowing even as the words left his mouth that he wasn't doing a very good job. It was too late to turn back now, though.
