There was a small gap in time between his arrival and that of his partner, golden eyes shifting momentarily to greet his mate. A small bump of his maw was offered to her cheek before a coral tongue graced over the spot he had nudged, attention returning back to the matter at hand. Rust tinged audits pricked forward curiously as Kajika began to inform the ruling pair of his intentions, apparently having an inner desire to seek out more within the pack. That more being an official pack role, but which role specifically the swarthy male sought to earn unannounced yet.

A bombinate noise rumbled quietly within the back of his throat, a sound reflecting Vespertio's mental contemplation of the situation. It had been two weeks now since the sudden and unexpected disappearance of their beta male and guardian ranked Anthem. A fact that left the agouti pelted wolf feeling awfully uneasy with each day that tacked itself onto the stormy man's no show roster. He remained silent for a few sparse moments before turning to gain any thoughts @Namid may have on the situation, skull then returning to face towards @Kajika . "It's always a pleasant conversation to be had when a subordinate comes to us seeking more to do for and with the pack. Considering you have given this thorough thought, what role in mind are you wanting to obtain?"

Creamy haunches lowered to connect with the earth, mirroring the position Namid had previously taken to. The plush of his tail thumped idly against the collection of fallen pine needles and dirt, prepared to offered the swarthy wolf guidance in accordance to the role his heart sought to earn. It would not be easy to obtain an official role, one having to prove themselves worthy of the title they choose, but the agouti patriarch had all the faith in the world in his members.

All attention was kept solely on the swarthy man as he began his pitch about what he felt was the right role for him. A rust tinged ear flicked idly as the pair atop Vespertio's head listened intently to the words falling from a coral tongue, silence and a small nod encouraging Kajika to continue informing the regal pair on his intentions. From what the tawny man gathered there were currently two specific roles that tugged for the dark coated male's undivided attention. Part of him leaned toward a role as an adviser, the other a teaching role. Regardless which title won the internal fight, both were admirable roles with open slots.

"I see." The smile plastered across inky lips widened slightly, the same emotion present in the minor glint within molten gold eyes. "Both roles you are suggesting are admirable and would benefit the pack greatly. As smooth as the pack may seem to be running, an alpha can always be thankful for an adviser's shoulder to lean on for advice in times of hardship. The same can be said for a teacher." Gradually the momentum in his tail increased, uplifting the looser bits of dry pine needles surrounding nestled paws. "With our children-" A swift glance and a smile was offered to Namid. "growing so quickly they will need all the guidance available to them. I know I myself would be grateful for the extra wisdom passed on to the next generation." Glancing back at his beloved wife, Vespertio met her mismatched gaze. "What do you think, my love?"
