Where Flowers Bloom

After Indigo had notched another wolf’s ear he retreated to his garden for a long time. He quietly tended the plants mostly on his own. He wasn’t exactly sure how to feel after the raid, but some of his innocence had been brushed away as he was given a glimpse of the real world. He was young and inexperienced, but that didn’t mean his enemies wouldn’t hold back their punishment. He thought a lot about everything that happened while he was alone with his plants, uncertain if he wanted to talk about it yet. That was one reason he’d been quieter in the pack. Mortis and Azure had seemed unfazed, he could hear them occasionally as they wandered around his greenhouse on occasion. Indy just didn’t feel like being social. He liked being holed up behind his glass walls. Behind the fences and the brambles.

The boy started to foster the growth of sticker plants on the outside perimeter of his fence, he had a lot of pokes to show for it but his little castle would be further secured. The massive violet boy was resting at the side of the greenhouse when Meadow walked by, his dark form disguised by the shade the building put off. Bright blue eyes took her in curiously as he lifted his head. She was definitely Armada, and her scent reminded him of his aunty.

”Hello?” He asked curiously while still remaining on his belly. She didn’t look like she meant any harm but he wondered if he should train Short Round to guard the door.
