<sub>It was amazing, the vehement scowl that was playing across the male’s features. It was like he was bursting with anger, or just pissed already. But then again, he’d been wandering for days; anyone would be probably be rather grumpy after wandering for that period. Anyway. Perhaps that was the case. The male slid to the ground, mouth opening in a wide but infuriated yawn. He then closed his eyes, and slid into a fitful sleep. Then he woke, twenty minutes later. He seemed to be arguing with himself twitching and baring his teeth at nothing at all. Looking around the large inside of the tree, he finally snarled something incoherent, then reasserted himself.

You bastard. Get out of my freaking head!

But if you were to delve further, into his mind, there was a perfectly obvious explanation. This explanation was Sin.

Oh, oh. I don't think so. I don't think so, you immature puerile adolescent.

Vance shuddered slightly, convulsively. He ran his tongue over his lips, but then shook his head. He spoke again, this time silently, in his mind.

You can talk, you writhing ball of hatred.

Sin fell silent for a while obviously contemplating this, or asleep. Vance exhaled, rather hyped by everything. He twitched, then twitched again. Sin ... well, simply he hated Sin. Because Sin was what his name suggested. Sin. Ha. Oh what a pun.</sub>

[Demisi]

<sup>Lean form was crouched in the undergrowth, gilded occuli upon the outsider and widened in skepticism as they observed the creature's ranting and raving. Demisi blinked, tongue tracing his maw as he allowed tensed limbs to ease into a reclined position. Mm.. Interesting character, this one.. He was somewhat dubious of the newcomer's sanity.

On a suddenly lazy impulse, the brute relaxed and rolled his shoulders to loosen the muscles. Maybe he worked too hard. Pups will be pups.. No need to put up the guard. Not yet. He stretched, yawned, tongue arching upward before unfurling and lolling back to rest on his jaw. But the intake of air spurred that obnoxious twinge in his throat. Oh, Fenris. He held his breath for a moment, willing it back, but his throat only rebelled by feeling as if it closed in on itself.

The cough freed itself with explosive vengeance, accompanied by a faint wheeze as the Alphen inhaled to ease his aching throat. Damn it. Auds twitched as they wilted and flattened against his skull, following suit with the sinking form. He remained silent for a moment, watching, hoping somehow the adolescent wouldn't have heard him.

ooc~Thereee. |D -Happy-</sup>

[Zethiael]

<sup>No rustling of leaves announced her entrance, but nonetheless, the Head Alphen arrived. She knew that, eventually, Demisi would grow weary of remaining in his sick-bed. He hadn't the sort of, you could call it, "wanderlust" which she had, but sometimes he could be close.

And so, she was not surprised when she found him wandering the other neutral terras. Not wanting to scare the living daylights out of him and cause a long trail of more of those horrible coughs, she tried to whisper very softly into his mind. Not wanting the stranger to overhear, she talked in closed channel, hoping he didn't have mind abilities which trumped her own.

You have to be careful, my Alphen... Now louder, for she hoped she was announced enough: How do you feel? And have you announced yourself to this.. newcomer? Lo, it wouldn't be good for an outsider to know you are weak, if they mean harm.

She moved towards him as she talked. An interesting look was on her face-- was she more paranoid, in the way of trusting this strange wolf, than normal, or was concern engraved upon her face... Incredibly, it was the latter.

((Finally. Sorry, Hiyanno. ))</sup>

[Demisi]

<sup>Despite her efforts to come off quietly, the brute jumped slightly, an ear flicking instinctively although there was nothing to hear. He blinked, widened stare shifting to the femme. He did not move nor attempt to return contact, half amazed at her open conversation. Slowly, trying to seem less conspicuous in case, by some incredible chance, the adolescent hadn't heard him, he gestured toward the reclined form with a sweep of his maw.

ooc~ Baw. DD: I can't think of what else to post. -Brick'd-</sup>

[Vance]

<sub>Since the silence of Sin, he had been left to his own thoughts and contemplations, not completely aware whether Sin was listening in to his thoughts or not. Staring forth, he narrowed his gaze. At a sound coming from a creature he had not noticed, his fur set on end. Obviously he had noticed the male who had failed to conceal the verbal outbust that was a cough. Blinking, he didn't raise to his paws, however. And at that moment, a voice appeared in his head. Like before, it didn't make any noise. Because Sin hadn't made any audible statements through Vance's mouth, it simply seemed like the male was rabid, and talking to himself.

What the hell are you waiting for? Sock it to them! Wait. Oh yeah, it's not like you could do it anyway. Pansy, pansy, pansy.

Vance snarled lowly at the voice in his head, eyes darting around almost manically. Why did not Sin take control of his body and do it his freaking self?! With all his preaching, Sin was a wolf filled with cowardice, thought Vance spitefully.

Sin. You're the big brave boy-- why don't you do it yourself? Unless you're trying to live yourself through me...

The last sentence of that 'message' to Sin was a joke. Sin had no way but to live himself through Vance. Unless it was Vance living himself through Sin's body. But, nah, Because he was named Vance by his mother, and would always be Vance. Perspiration formed on his pelt, almost nervously. He suspected that there was more than one wolf around, and so, it made the option of an ambush seem all the more likely.

Do your freaking freaking dirty work for you?- Since when is it explicitly my dirty work, Sin-ner?- Since you have the most control over the bod- Just because I have the most control, doesn't meant that you don't have any, subordinate.

He added subordinate in a method of angering the male, knowing that this 'Sin' character aspired to be anything /but/ a subordinate. And so the white adolescent stepped up, tail in a high position, seeming to be 'standing his ground'. It was obvious that this was now /Sin/, not Vance, acting this way. In a low growl, the words were said as:

Who goes there?

Vance simpered, having overridden the male's control after the short bout of speech. That wasn't how he would have asked the wolf he couldn't see, but he had offered Sin the chance and had to put up with the aftermath.

Having retreated back into his brooding state of mind, the male stared through Vance's eyes, the hate for this male evident thinking. Vance was an idiot. A pure, submissive idiot. Kiss the ass of who you should kiss the ass of if it won't get you killed. Sin yearned to break free from the idiotic white male and take his own form one day. Not like it was really going to happen. He'd like to override the stupid male, but for some strange reason, Vance had control of the body in most cases. Unless he tried hard. Which he might have. In the near future. At the moment, he was waiting for the wolf they heard to reply.

ooc; I thought it would be interesting to get into Sin's point of view.</sub>

[Kojinleaf]

(( Sin's a real card. Maybe I should drag Kojin here. Seeing as she had nothing better to do. ))

[Vance]

ooc; Maybe you should =DDD

[Demisi]

<sup>ooc~ Do! Do! xD I haven't heard from Kojin-san in a long time.

bic~ The fur along the ashen brute's nape bristled uncomfortably at the unexpected stand. He pulled himself up, regardless of his physical or mental state, lips drawing back in a snarl to meet the challenge. Plume erupted heavenward, hovering like a war flag above his rump.

I, he fairly spat, enunciating his words as if the intruder was perhaps deaf, I am merely the alphen of the lands you so carelessly traipse through.

He twitched faintly, broad chest's movement more frequent as he regained his breath. Head turned slightly, giving the juvenile a hard stare. Whelps pressing his hard-earned authority-- He did not like it, Sam I Am. Nor did he like green eggs and ham. But that was beside the point, though hunger stroked his ribs oh so gently, carefully reminding him he hadn't eaten in a while.

Identify yourself, he would add stubbornly.

Demisi eased his grip slightly, allowing his lips to at least partially conceal the flashing canines. For now. His head tilted in a different direction, mind silently whirring away at whether or not this brute was rabid-- or simply stark-raving mad. It reminded him of the obnoxious little femme who had crossed him before, but she could be scared off. The young juvenile could be a sizeable opponent. He snorted despite himself.

ooc~ -Messing with fonts- >.o I was trying a smaller font size, rather than superscript, so my posts could be legible-- but I'm used to having the double-spaced effect. xD Crammed together is not fun. -Nibbles green eggs- You can tell the coffee's kicking in.</sup>

[Kojinleaf]

Ooc: My post will be sloppy. I’ve damaged my elbow, and I’m ticked off because I can’t come on the Internet in the weekdays, only week ends. Curse you, High School! Gawd, I can’t even remember Kojin-san’s colours hahah,

Bic:

A rough red tongue traced a multicoloured maw. A slim female shape was bending low in some thick brush. Her ears were flickered forward, listen with amusement to the conversation. That new comer was going to have it coming to him. Fancy speaking this freely to the Alphen of these lands. The Celebravan Alphena licked her maw again, chuckling to her self. If he had said that to her, she would be ripping out his throat.

She shook her head slightly, as if ridding a fly. She couldn’t do that. She was just annoyed that the rabbits had disappeared from the Fields, and she had lost a new member of her pack. She ground her fangs, gripping the dirt with her claws.
Her fallen leaf coat blended in perfectly with the dyeing leaves in the brush. Her golden and amber eyes were watching the pair again.

Her tail swished silently. Soon she would make her self present. Down wind, quiet as an owl. Kojinleaf, or more plainly, Kojin bent lower.

ooc: Tesing out colours and such...

[Zethiael]

^{{ooc}{Eh heh... Uuh... this is gonna be a rather low-quality post, sorry in advance. x-x Ngerm...}}

<sub>Zethiael came into herself again now that Demisi was not in immediate harm, and with a nod to the wonderful brute, she tore herself away and slinked into the shadows once more-- but not so far away that she casted no protective glance upon the Alphen and the newcomer. There was something strange about this one--something strange, indeed.

Sending direct-channel to Demisi, she reminded him soothingly, Demisi, don't let this prying wolf's vanity get the better of you-- he means your downfall by your own feelings. Please, watch yourself..

She would not bear seeing Demisi loose control of his feelings, as rightful as he was to scorn this newcomer's insubordination, carelessly prancing over Ithildin like it was his, despite the many scent boundaries, and sights of inhabiting life.

The fur on her back raised a bit from concern, distrust, and anxiety-- she did not know what this new wolven might do next, for there was something very wrong with his mind. There must be, even though she was on the outside looking in. It was clear... whatever state the brute's body and head were in, it was unhealthy, and therefore the actions that it would--could-- take were unpredictable.</sub>[/color]

[Vance]

<sub>Vance was immediately regretful that he had offered Sin the chance to speak up. He knew he'd say something like that; something demanding. Well, who goes there wasn't exactly demanding, but the wolf who replied seemed to have taken it as such. He planned to make a placating reply without sounding crazy. Going straight from mood to mood was strange. The wolves didn't know about Sin, and they didn't need to. But he had been thinking too loud, or perhaps clearly, because Sin seemed to be snorting, or something. In his head, at least. He really didn't want the wolves to hear him snorting. Because snorting was insolence and he'd already shown that. Quite clearly, this wolf he faced, might have been able to kick his ass. Well, only a fight would make sure of that. Vance didn't want a fight. Sin did, but he assumed that was because he did not feel the pain Vance would feel.

Anyway. He had a situation at hand that he needed to address. In a rather stoic voice, he replied to the male.

'Sorry, sir. I wasn't aware this place was owned. Well, I was a little preoccupied.

Sin made a sneering noise in his head, although Vance didn't bother to reply to it. Sin had the right to to make all the noises he wanted, and Vance had the right not to reply them.
'I'm Vance.'</sub>

[Kojinleaf]

ooc: -snort snort- Funnee XD

bic:

Kojin felt her tail wagging slightly. She didn’t know why, but the wolf seemed to amuse her. Almost like he had a split personality. But that was ridiculous. Kojinleaf shook her head, making the bush shiver.

She bent lower, and like a shadow, slipped round the back of, Vance. She wondered vaguely how the wolf would react, if she jumped on top of him. For fun. Rip her fur out? Maybe.
She watched, amber/gold eyes narrowed in the gloom of the trees. If Demisi was here so should, Zethiael. It would be nice to see the she-wolf again.

But she was like a shadow herself. Flitting in and out of darkness. She flicked her eyes smartly over the clearing. Not sign of the she-wolf.

[Demisi]

<sup>ooc; Uhm. D: I am really sorry I didn't reply to this sooner.. But yeah. I didn't know if I should, with the new forum and all. We can:

A~ Continue here, regardless, at least until Vance is accepted in/decides to remain neutral on Ithildin grounds/tweaks the plotline. xD

B~ Continue with the next post on the new forum, and go from there..

C~ Start fresh on the new forum.

o: I'm leaving this up to you. Yarr.</sup>

[Vance]

ooc; We could just continue with the next post on the new forum.. that seems like a good idea to me.

[Demisi]

<sup>ooc; All right.. x3 Fine by everyone else?

-Overwhelming silence-

Well. D: I think, for the sake of speeding things along, we should just continue. Mutual consent will take so long. xD</sup>[/color]
