RE: Corvid Catastrophe [S] - Clover - Nov 26, 2021 Had to snag a thread between these two lovely ladies :p
She had ventured south back down to the willow trees, but this time with the intent of just taking the day to relax, instead of foraging for herbs like she usually did. The plants she could gather here were not what she was searching or anyway, and with winter soon to come around nothing new would begin to sprout that she could use, so this was a perfect opportunity to have an off day. However, it seemed as if that just was not meant to be, as it did not take long for a whole host of magpies to emerge and begin squabbling amongst each other. They seemed friendly enough with no intention of swooping down on her, but she kept a wary gaze on each of the birds as they continued to make a ruckus. Perhaps this was a group activity for them, or maybe they just felt like annoying everything else living among the willows. Either way, it made it quite difficult to have a relaxing outing. Apparently she was not the only one caught up in the squawking event today, evident by the angry shout she heard from somewhere nearby, likely directed at the birds. The magpies near her quietened down for a moment, and Clover thought they would decide to remain silent, but just as quickly they started up again, and she let out a soft laugh, unable to be truly annoyed at them. It was a little funny, at least for now. Her paws lead her towards where she had heard the shout, quickly coming upon a fiery-hued wolf who was clearly not having a good day, if the angry shout had not been evident enough. "Wonder what's gotten into these birds today?" She said with a light smile, hoping the other female was not too peeved off to have a conversation with her.

RE: Corvid Catastrophe [S] - Clover - Dec 09, 2021 She was taken aback by the apparent hostility in the other woman's eyes and body language, and even took a few precautionary steps backwards, before realising that all that anger was likely directed towards the birds, and not herself. The stranger spoke with a curt tone, but Clover was generally unbothered by such things normally, and even in this unusual circumstance, she felt no ire towards the other woman in response. Perhaps she was just having a bad day, and there was no reason to add onto it by also acting negatively. She was a little hesitant to point out the obvious that the birds were far too high up for either of them to grab any of the squawking beasts, not wanting to fan the flames on the stranger's hostility. "It's not often they cause such an awful ruckus, perhaps something caused it and we could go check it out." Birds were strange creatures, and each species seemed to have their own ways of doing things. "Or maybe they're doing it on purpose?" She added as an afterthought, shrugging her shoulders at the suggestion. It was not uncommon for some birds to annoy a wolf, but to go to this extreme was quite the curious case. "I'm not sure if we can make them quiet down, so maybe we could go walk somewhere else more... peaceful?" She said after a moment, offering the chance to walk with her somewhere else where they could chat without the birds drowning them out. RE: Corvid Catastrophe [S] - Flair - Jan 07, 2022 [dohtml]
RE: Corvid Catastrophe [S] - Clover - Jan 08, 2022 She stood silently as the other woman seemed to collect her emotions, not wanting to poke the bear so to speak, and allowed her to take as much time as she needed, even as the birds continued their cawing and cackling. The woman spoke with a fiery conviction, all fire and a type of anger that had Clover feeling a little hesitant, but it no longer seemed to be directed at her, and so she calmly stood her ground. "Can't blame them, they're probably jealous of us," she said with a half-grin, doing her best to lift the other woman's spirits and lighten the mood. When she conceded and agreed to move somewhere away from the birds Clover wasted no time in motioning with her muzzle for the other woman to follow her, quickly turning on her heels and walking at a slow pace to allow her to catch up, before she would then speed up to a more brisk pace. The birds shrieked and squabbled as she moved away from them, but it seemed they didn't make any attempt to follow, and for that she was thankful. Hopefully some peace and quiet would simmer down the fiery anger that was emanating from the other woman. "I'm Clover, by the way. I live a bit North of here in a pack," she said, looking over her shoulder, hoping a change in conversation would be enough of a distraction.

RE: Corvid Catastrophe [S] - Clover - Feb 07, 2022 She could almost physically feel the fiery woman relax as they walked away from the birds, their noisy caws growing softer and softer with each step until finally they fell away into the ambiance of the forest. Now she could actually hear herself think, and wouldn't struggle to hear what the other woman was saying. A soft laugh slipped from her maw at the woman's comment, her head tipping back slightly with the force of it. Well, she wasn't wrong, per say. "Yes, I'm a part of Dead Empress Backwater along the Heartleaf Creek." Brine-water was an apt description, even if the water was completely fresh with no hints of saltwater. Though she supposed the Valle wolves would be in no way opposed to having some sort of saltwater nearby, given their love of the sea. Clover's eyes widened as the woman, who she now knew to be Flair, continued to speak, a glimmering look of recognition evident on her face. "You're with the Sanguine Cove wolves then, I presume?" She hadn't come across the fiery woman during her brief stay, but she had been very focused on trying to find Xulia while also doing good on Viorel's promise, so her attention had been very focused at the time. They were a bit of a distance away from the mountain, however, and she wondered at to what Flair was doing all the way down here. RE: Corvid Catastrophe [S] - Flair - Feb 15, 2022 [dohtml]
