All That Remains [Pack Meeting]
11-24-2017, 09:44 PM
ooc: Addressing those who stated ranks first since it's unlikely that Rory would have spoken to them while the fighting began. I figure it's time to wrap this up so it's all decided and not in limbo rather than wait on the judges since I know they're very busy trying to wrap up the raid.
Those who didn't reply with what rank they want then feel free to pm me and choose one since this thread is so old.
Most were quiet right off the bat, which was a little disappointing. Not too many seemed all that surprised either that Faite was gone. He didn't dwell on it and instead turned his attention to Kairi first since she spoke. She didn't say anything about their mother, but instead chose a rank. He gave her an encouraging smile and nodded. "You're a Levada then. If you don't feel like the rank suits you in a few weeks then you can always change it." He would have offered to help her figure it out, but it wasn't like he was some wise old wolf who knew everything. Maybe another member of the pack would help her out.
Jaidah requested the same rank and he nodded to her as well. If his sisters were choosing that rank then he was more than curious as to what his two brothers would say. His attention didn't stay on that thought for long as Torin spoke up and stated that he was challenging for Kaliq. His siblings' comments flew right over his head as he stared at Torin with ... well he couldn't tell what he was feeling. Should he even allow this? What was Torin thinking? Frostbite was an older male with a fair amount of experience. Did Torin feel like he'd chosen his secondary wrong? He hoped not cause that particular thought was painful. He wasn't perfect at this whole alpha thing, but he was trying. It was why he'd chosen Frost in the first place.
Finally he glanced towards Frost as the male accepted Torin's challenge. Well it seemed too late to change his mind now and so Rory just sat back and decided to wait it out. He supposed he owed Torin the chance to prove himself so long as Frost was accepting of a fight. He still wasn't prepared as Torin sprang forward and Rory could barely keep himself from cringing as his brother smashed into the older male. And then Frost's attack had him cringing again as the wolf headbutted Torin in the rib cage. It was hard to watch his sibling be put in pain, but he could also tell Frost was taking great care not to leave any lasting wounds on him either so he clamped his teeth shut.
They scuffled for a bit longer and it wasn't until Torin had a hold of Frost's neck and Frost retaliating that Rory decided he'd seen enough. "Enough!" He barked in a loud and commanding tone. Hopefully it was enough to get them to break apart from one another. He really didn't want to get involved and he wanted to break it apart before things got too serious. "Torin, Frost, you both fought well, but I still think Frost's experience still outweighs both mine and yours Torin. I still choose him to be Kaliq." He gave his sibling a sympathetic look for a moment. That wasn't to say Torin couldn't try again in the future, but for now Rory had made up his mind. "For now you can take your pick of whatever rank you'd like. I think Arsenio would suit you, but if you'd like the opportunity to lead then the rank of Fola or Iliff are options." He was impressed with Torin's ambition at the very least and he deserved the opportunity to learn just as he was.
