Blackfeather Woods you say that you're here, but you live on the sun
#1
Private 
short meeting thread, two rounds, no post order. next round will start with zephyr's next post on the 21st, and then it'll be wrapped up by the 23rd — this is technically forward dated to around that time in zephs timeline, so no rush
He's excited when he goes to find @Phillip, @Rosalie, and @Electra — though it likely isn't obvious to anyone except Phillip, who he greets with a deceptively innocent kiss to the cheek. Then he's all business, launching into an explanation of his arrangement with Rowan and the only two rules of Blackfeather Woods — put into more practical words, of course. He doesn't think they'll understand things like sacred birds and places, but he knows they'll understand the basic ground rules of how to behave around them.
Then he takes them to meet @Rowan, ignoring the burning in his shoulder and neck that tells him he's pushed himself too far today. He still has more to do — so much more, now that he has a place to call his own. He can't rest now. I think you guys will like him, He tells them as they near the spot where he'd last seen Rowan. He's nice. And if they dont like him, Zephyr might just have an aneurysm and die on the spot.

Rowan said he'd wait.
But obviously, he was sidetracked by his birds.
Stone tugged at his fur, asking for him to follow.
She flew a few hundred meters along the border, and Rown loped along behind.
Only to be shown a stone that she particularly liked.
Typical.
"Not now," he muttered, before turning to lope back to the place.

Ah, there he was. The silvery Zephyr, weaving towards the place with his followers. Rowan grinned, tail high, but greeting. Dominant friendliness.
"Welcome," he greeted warmly.

Electra, as always, does not appear thrilled to be here.  She is attentive to what Zephyr says but offers no opinion on his commentary.  She doesn't understand things like the birds are sacred so don't eat them, but she knows more or less how to act, and figures that it's not a big deal to play along with whatever nonsense was presented to her.  As long as she had a safe place to stay and plenty to eat, she'd be fine.

As a general rule, the golden girl is not good with shows of dominance or deference, and appears relatively neutral as Rowan approaches with his tail up.  Her glacial gaze remains unchanged, and she offers no expression or introduction other than a slight tip of her head to acknowledge his presence.

Phillip followed close behind, going over the rules that were laid out to him in his head. Well, he tried at least. It’s hard to think of anything but Zephyr, especially when he was right next to him. Everything would be more clear once his mind was less clouded.

The group arrived at the forest, and Rowan soon came to greet them. His dominant display was intimidating. Phillip crouched slightly and averted his gaze. The only thing that kept him from cowering behind the group was the bird that kept nearby, which he couldn’t help but glance at.

pping to get this closed
The meeting goes as he'd expected. Electra isn't friendly, Phillip is shy, but @Rosalie makes up for it with warmth and confidence. Zephyr introduces everyone, glossing over the imperfections and hoping Rowan will, too. Then he hurries everyone off for a tour of the Woods, sticking close to Phillip and touching his nose to the dark boy's cheek every so often. All he can think about is how he really, really loves him.
