All Welcome 
Ira had been a part of Easthollow for a short time now, although, anyone who quizzed her on her new pack mates would likely be disappointed in what little she knew of them. The tall and slender wolf had never really been open to dumping her life in someone else's paws, nor did she really care for the gossip of others. A small pout crossed her lips as she pondered how easy it was for her to leave her last pack. Perhaps it was due to her lack of relations? She was only really close to her sister and her false parents who understood her urge to leave.

She shook her head clearing her slightly trouble thoughts as her expression returned to her stone features. Valette had given her a task and the last thing she wanted to do was come up short. Ira knew better than to disappoint the alpha, especially if it was going to be her first impression. She treaded near the pack's resting space to see who was currently around but made note of where the recently birthed pups were to keep her distance. Pups would have been easier for her to start with, but she knew she needed an escort, for good reasons, before she could meet them. But who do I start with?

Vespera slithered between the trees, her goal for now was to not to be noticed by any other pack mates. How do you feel about being surrounded by 13 other wolves?  The question was still lingering around in her mind ever since she first talked to Valette and joined the pack for the first time. "How do you feel about being surrounded by 13 other wolves," she childishly mocked Valette. Vespera knew that Vallete means well, but the female's angst was rising for control of her thoughts and actions towards other pack mates. The young female might as well just avoid social interactions because she knew that all them would ask where did she come from, or who are you and what is your past like. Vespera only opened up to Valette and she tended to keep it that way, for she scolded herself for doing so. Oh perfect now she is probably going to think that I am faking my whole snarky and sarcastic persona, but she is wrong.. I am not faking it... its just who I am... The female growled to herself as she didn't realize she was secretly, or trying to, make her way towards the so called pack resting area. Vespera was still trying to avoid as much of the other pack mates as possible, but she wasn't paying any attention to where she was heading. The young female stopped beside a tree, exhaling, she sat beside the tree, looking up as the shadows loomed over her as her mind was filling with thoughts.

As Ira glanced over the wolves, a mocking voice moving closer caught her attention. The larger wolf's gaze fell upon the black one who was now slinking out of the trees. Unless she had been outside the pack's borders for a while she too was a newcomer. Ira's eyes narrowed as she watched the young wolf's actions only to find herself grimacing. She wasn't particularly interested in associating herself with this newcomer, but her situation wasn't really about her. New or not, she was part of the pack and therefore it was Ira's duty to at the very least introduce herself.

The greyscaled wolf let out a small sigh as she paced towards the seated wolf, her expression now returned to her usual stone features. Ira would stop a few paces short to give the smaller wolf some room then glance up at the tree before locking her eyes on Vespera, giving her best playful banter. Is there something you are looking for? If it's in the trees you might want to start looking elsewhere.

Vespera's ears shot towards the voice that was near her, soon her body followed, but only to be greeted by a female that was bigger than her. One of the things I hate about being young, is that your small, and its frustrating to me, and I don't know why. She noticed that the strange female had given her a playful look as she asked if she was looking for something, it wouldn't be in a tree. Vespera looked up at the female, her purple gaze looking unamused and her expression giving a 'are you series' look by raising her eyebrow followed by a blank muzzle expression. The female could only guess that she was trying to be friendly and greeting her for she was a new pack mate, but she felt as she was being baby talked by her, she probably didn't implement it that way. Vespera flared her nose, "Oh no, I wouldn't think that a tree would have all the answers to my problems," she a little eye roll as her eyes shot towards a tree one second then back to the strange wolf. However Vespera would second guess herself because of the playful expression the female had, but she shook that thought and frowned a little, she was new but all this social interactions was getting on her nerves a little and she didn't know how long she could keep it up.

Ira watched Vespera carefully as she reacted to her presence. The unamused look paired with a roll of her eyes sent a twinge of annoyance, eating away at the back of her mind, but she shook those thoughts. That is the most probable outlook, yes. Is there something you need assistance with by any chance? I'd probably be more useful than the tree at least. While the grey wolf tried to keep a friendly approach, she had likely shifted back to her stone features.

In the pause before the young wolf's responce, Ira would raise her head, standing with square shoulders. Ah-- I should have mentioned sooner, but I noticed you entering the territory. I'm a rather new member of the pack so I am not sure if you are new or old, but I thought I would introduce myself. You may call me Ira.  She gave a small head bow, shortly returning her stare to the black wolf now waiting for her response.

Vespera looked at the large grey wolf before her. She didn't say anything to her for a while, but her annoyance only grew when she kept talking about the stupid tree. I'm beginning to think Valette told this wolf about our conversation about me having "beef with a tree" or she was ease dropping. Vespera kept those thoughts in her head, but the female had offered assistance to Vespera if needed, but she really didn't need it. Vespera noticed the female moved back a bit, oh yes, I am so intimidating. But Vespera figured that wasn't the case why the female moved back. The young female was interested when the female said she was new and she saw her walk into the territory, so Vespera could excuse why the female was like this, but Vespera felt that this was an act for she put on a different persona when talking to other wolves. Vespera listened as the wolf called herself Ira. She noticed that Ira was awaiting her response, so she decided to amuse the female, "you can call me Vespera then." she said simply, not even bothering with the snark. But she figured that wouldn't be enough, so she humored herself by at least trying to have a conversation, "I guess you could help me with......" Vespera paused as she looked around for something to peek her interest, then it hit her. "If you could tell me where the water is, that would be great," Vespera tried to but on a kind and curious smile, but it came out a little more awkward then she hoped.

The longer this interaction went on the more Ira found herself fighting to stay. She had been turned off of the encounter since this young wolf started with her snarky attitude, although after getting a name out of her she seemed to act a bit differently. Ira leaned in slightly, her eyes narrowed as she inspected Vespera a bit more closely only to look ultimately dumbfounded. She is kidding right? For a split second the greyscaled wolf forgot her reason for approaching the other girl as questions flooded her mind, but one in particular slipped past her lips, How are you alive right now???

Vespera's instincts were screaming at her to fight back with a snarky attitude and tell her off and walk away. This is why I don't do these things anymore.... I guess I can only be nice around Valette and Brynn, now i'm ticked. The young females fur bristled, and her purple gaze narrowed, she didn't understand why Ira had said that to her, it was just a simple question. Vespera studied the females movements, did she seems agitated? The thought kept whirling in her mind. Vespera closed her eyes for a few seconds and let out a long heavy sigh. Vespera's attitude change reflected how she could get a little worked up over the slightest things, and she didn't know what to do with herself at this point. The female opened her eyes back up, and she stared deep into Ira's eyes, she wanted to make something clear without letting her anger slip. "I'm more alive on the outside than the inside," Vespera replied with some cheekiness and confidence, giving more of a teenage like attitude now. When those words slipped, she made herself feel hurt, she felt like she was taking two steps back from when she and Valette had last spoke. However the female kept her head up high, "I'm sorry that I am not the best at social interaction, but hey I am trying, I was just trying to start a conversation and maybe "Try" to make new friends, but maybe some people don't click as well as others." As she kept talking more and more about this, the more she felt that she was over reacting, but she didn't know how to react. Her morals were fighting for battle as to how to handle this. Vespera's anger seemed to calm down, but that emotion didn't disappear, it converted to sadness, but she didn't show it. Without waiting for a response, Vespera snorted and turned away, "Sorry for wasting your time..." she mumbled, but this time she sounded genuinely apologetic, she wanted to try, but she felt that she had failed and made this a big deal then it should have and she felt embarrassed by it and she couldn't stand it. The female slowly began to walk away, but her head slightly hanging low.

The older female studied Vespera as she witnessed her go through what seemed like several mood swings. When the black wolf responded to her question, it was probably clear Ira was confused by the look on her face, and all she could do was watch as she rambled on. It wasn't until the smaller wolf started to retreat that she relaxed allowing herself a moment to clear her thoughts.

"Sorry for wasting your time..."

Normally, she wouldn't involve herself in others emotional distress, but she did not really want to leave a bad first impression on one of her packmates if she was really going to stay here. Ira let out a short sigh and rolled her eyes after Vespera had looked away. I suppose I should not be so brash if you are new to the area. I was refering to using your nose if you are in need of a drink, although the water levels are growing low so I suppose that could be a factor. I can lead you to one of the water sources near by, if you still desire.

Vespera wanted to ram her head into the nearest rock. Are you kidding me?? The young female's nose flared in annoyance. Could you have been a little more specific?! Vespera gritted her teeth, she kept her glance away from Ira. If it was a joke, I am not laughing! I thought it was an insult, usually that stuff is, because where I came from, it usually means you're stupid! How should I know, maybe she was trying to imply that I am. These thoughts had only risen her anger, she felt like she was going to explode and lash out. Vespera crossed eyed to her nose, as her nose seemed to double in her vision, Of course, I should use my nose, how else would I survive, I was just trying to socialize like I said earlier, everyone knows that your nose is key in survival, a pup could have told you that. Vespera was gritting her teeth with so much force, she felt as if her fangs would shatter into a million pieces. Vespera had to try to control her anger, she inhaled as deep as she could, then exhaled as powerful as a bison. Vespera turned her head to the left slightly and uncrossed her eyes for they were beginning to hurt. "Fine... lets go.." She grumbled, not even looking up at era, as she felt the steam release from her ears.


sorry for late response xD

It's cool I'm about ready to wrap up this thread if you want this to be the last post or the next!
Ira stood tall and still like a pillar as the younger wolf moved ahead, the tension rolling off her pelt in waves before a loud huff escaped the black wolf. If you are so upset by the thought of my presence you did not need to accept my invitation...Then again why am I still humoring this behavior? Very well... there's a stream not too far from here. Don't feel the need to follow me if you would rather be alone. I'm sure you are capable of exploring the territory on your own. At least you better be.

Vespera watched the female's stature, she was giving off something and Vespera only knew it so well. The young female watched Ira as she spoke about the stream and Vespera being capable about finding the stream and exploring the territory on her own. Vespera knew she was very much capable, but she felt a bit of mischievousness arouse in her mind. Vespera hid a cheeky smile from the female, her young child like mind was staring to take over and she decided to keep humoring the female a bit more. Okay.... Let's see how long you can keep up this persona.. Vespera felt a little evil for thinking that, but the thought of the female acting unlike herself came to her mind for she knew that all to well. Vespera turned to the female, wiping off her cheeky smile but the female stood in her mind. She gave the female a more excited expression, wanting to make the female think that she was looking interested and calm. She looked forward, she knew she already explored much of the territory with Brynn and a little by herself, but she wanted to humor herself, "alright, lead the way," Vespera said in a calm matter as readied herself mentally.


this can be our last post. Thanks for making a post with me! But I think we need to put these two in a "our getting along" shirt xD.
