Walk | Talk | Think Miksa waited, nervous and expectant, unsure how Varda would handle what he told her about his recent endeavors. The decision to join Surreal and her eventual pack had been difficult for him, yes, what with his loyalties to Threar deeper than his loyalties had been for any of his previous packs, but still the decision had been made. Changes of that nature were becoming something of a routine for him, a pattern that was familiar even if it threw him into new territory each time. For Varda, however... He struggled to imagine how it was for her. She had grown up, he presumed, in Threar, safely surrounded by wolves who were relatives or close to it. That was such a different loyalty than what he felt, and he could only imagine that it made her current situation as a loner that much harder. Just as surely as it made the thought of joining another pack seem almost absurd. He shifted a little where he stood, and cast a quick glance around but saw nothing and no one of interest. Only the kind wolf who had gone out of her way to help him adjust to life in her pack after he had joined. Her voice, when she answered, was so quiet the yellow-eyed wolf almost thought he imagined it, but as he blinked he realized the words he only thought to hear had actually been uttered and asked by her. She was interested in joining too? That was much more than he had hoped for. A gentle sigh, coated with relief, exited his muzzle as his lips drew upward at the edges into a soft, reassuring smile. "I'm sure she will," he answered with a gentle certainty. Surreal seemed like the type to keep an invitation like that extended for an unlimited amount of time, and she did know Varda's parents. Even if she did not immediately let her stay, Miksa hoped he would be able to convince her to if it came down to it. But, if for some reason she chose to send the Destruction girl away... His look became thoughtful for a second, and to offer further reassurance he added, "And if she doesn't, I won't let you wander alone." Her family had made an impact on him, enabling him to see the hope and brightness of better things to come, and as he saw it he owed them. The just and patient leaders, even this lonely young woman. Perhaps even her especially because she had become his first friend within the pack. He cared too much for the memory of her parents, for her kindness, to see her live alone and suffering for it. |
