I feel like I'm holding this up, so I'll get up a reply to this tonight.
Everyone arrived soon after her. Elwood sat next to her, and she gave him a friendly smile. Finley soon arrived on the scene, and glued to herself to Elwood's side. The sight of the two love-struck Betas made her smile, for how could she not when two of her good friends were in such a wonderful mood?
As it became clear that those who weren't here wouldn't be coming, Fox announced why she had called them. Her idea was a good one to Somnia, and it seemed to work out just as well.... Until Grimm overstepped her boundaries. The tension Finley experienced was noticeable, and Somnia gave a disapproving shake of her head. There wasn't any permanent ill feelings behind it, for surely she was learning from this mistake already with the way she slunk towards the back of the group.
Wolves continued to get complimented, and there was a sense of suspense that came with wondering when you would get picked, and who would be left to compliment. Eventually, Peregrine complimented her. There was a mixture of pride from being complimented, and embarrassment from such a big praise being said in front of most of the pack. Her face felt heated, yet her chest puffed out proudly as a smile blossomed on her face.
Now it was time to choose her target. Luckily, Dove jumped in and gave her some more time to think. There was Grimm, the wolf in deathly need of encouragement, Elwood, who she took for granted most of the time, Dove, who Somnia had tension towards, and an unknown male wolf who Somnia was trying her best to ignore for certain reasons. In the end, she chose Grimm.
"Thank you, Peregrine. That meant a lot to me." Somnia said before moving on to her compliment. "Grimm, everyone makes mistakes at times, but the important thing is we learn from them. It takes some courage to test the water, to figure out what is wrong and right the hard way instead of waiting for others to embarrass themselves for you to find out. I compliment you on your ability to put yourself out there, and withstand some embarrassment so others can avoid putting themselves through it."
A little bit of a problem would occur now; Grimm had already complimented someone. To resolve any potential confusing, Somnia added one more thing. "Finley, you may go now, as Grimm already has." Besides, she's been complimented and hadn't had her turn to compliment.
