Poor Ithy was left sitting by herself when Kaoru approached Isolde and asked to join the pack as well. With a slight whimper, she trotted after him, sitting beside the smaller brute with a half-embarassed smile. She didn't want to be left alone; it was a mental security issue for her. What if something happened while everyone else was away, and she was hurt? Or maybe they'd try to leave her! The wildest of thoughts rushed through her mind, freaking her out with each passing second.
Although she didn't always look it, Ithyph was a very outspoken wolf. Mind you, not in the sense of speaking, just on allowing others to see her opinions, whether it be through body language or quiet speech. She was not one to sit back and allow things to happen around her. She would make it perfectly clear to her alphess that she would not tolerate stupid mistakes. One wrong move; Ithyph was quick to judge those in power. The ones who lead should leave a good example to follow in her mind. Just because they could lay a claim didn't necessarily mean that they could lead. The multi-colored femme snorted in disgust, scratching at her fuzzy brown ear with her rear right paw. She faked a smile and cough to cover up the snort, but she didn't believe it would be easily passed over...
One ear perked up as a voice adressing her cycled through the air. Ithy looked over at the femme that had been named beta with an interested look. "I'm Ithyph," she woofed quietly, not willing to say much more. This femme seemed much nicer than Isolde did. Then again, Ithy was big on first impressions, and in her eyes, Isolde had failed the test. She shot a disapproving glance in the alphess's direction, quickly hiding it with a weak smile and nod towards her new leader.
I guess this place is where I'll stay. That is, unless I can find somewhere better, she thought. There were other, untrodden lands on the continent; perhaps during her membership in this pack, she would explore. Maybe another area of land with less problems or better temperature to suit her body type would be explored and claimed. Then, she wouldn't have to deal with all her problems. She would feel bad leaving Kaoru, but what she needed was more important than what she wanted. She would occasionally have to leave the lands simply to cool off and keep from overheating.
Meh. The femme yawned, watching the other wolves with amusement. This group did not seem like a good combination for a pack. They would have to get some things set straight before order would be restored; that way, Ithyph wouldn't feel like she was the only one who sought to succeed in life. Her goals were laid out, and she wanted to be as on top as she could be without being alpha. Too much work for her, and not enough social skills. Things would come with time that would help her along her path...
