Blackfeather Woods In the Shadow of the Moon (Pack Activity!)

Cicero was never far from Damien's side, even now that the storm was over and they no longer had a child to care for together. Grimnir and Lusa were gone, and life in Blackfeather Woods could continue as it should. Cicero felt that he had failed by not gauging Grimnir's response to the spores right. It had been so different from his own when he had ingested them. Even after he had come to he had been weak. Perhaps he had underestimated the power of adrenaline. Cicero did not let it get to him much, instead trying to deduce what had gone wrong so he could adapt next time.

Beside his brother Cicero waited while Meldresi and Burke awaited the rest of the pack. In the shadows that ge belonged in, for his soul was dark and blackened, even if Cicero wished it were different. He found solace in his brother's presence, and so Cicero waited beside Damien. Even if tonight was in part about them, it did not bring Cicero much joy. Very little did, these days.
