Blacktail Deer Plateau fly away

Peregrine smirked appreciatively at Ariston's vulgar language. Not many in the pack spoke the way he and his brothers did, so he enjoyed it when it did happen. This factor, combined with Ariston's goofy demeanor, was starting to win him over. When Ariston mentioned relationships, Peregrine feared he might say something about building rapport between packs but he mentioned only fostering relationships between the members within the pack.

"Well, that's good, though I'm not sure that procuring sunshine and rainbows between pack mates can be compared to putting a nice slab of fresh meat on the supper table," he replied rather generically, quirking a brow at his comrade and smiling smugly. He then added, "For a second, I was afraid you were going to go off on some tangent about the importance of building relationships with outside packs. That's something I've never understood whatsoever. Why bother with other packs at all?" His dusky eyes looked to Ariston's face, wondering where he stood on this issue.
