Someplace new to make something new

Ezra walked out toward the pack's grove with one of Artorias' sons in tow—along with his own eagle, his dog, Briar's falcon, and Art's raven acting as some sort of protection detail behind them. As soon as he saw just how protective Art was as a father he decided to just go along with whatever it was that his friend wanted to make him feel better about the pups going places. He was sure he wouldn't be much better if he ever became a father himself so he didn't criticize his friend. When Thorn thanked him for coming with him to the wild berry grove, Ezra gave the kid a grin and nodded. "Sure thing, little guy! No problem at all." He didn't know exactly what Thorn wanted to do out here, but when the blue-hued boy's family was busy and he needed to go out to the grove to do his usual patrols anyway it just made sense for him to let the pup tag along.

Ezra kept an eye on Thorn while the boy poked around some trees and experimented with a few sticks, but also looked around at the grove as well to make sure no bears had tried to creep back in on their territory. He didn't know how this unseasonable autumn was going to effect their hibernation so it had made him start doing more frequent patrols just in case. What he hadn't really been expecting was the spiny creature that Thorn ended up spotting first. Ezra turned his attention over to where the pup was looking and as soon as he saw the porcupine he moved closer to the boy, saying, "Oh, that's a porcupine! Don't get too close to that thing, your parents would kill me if I brought you home full of quills."
