Willow Ridge What was once ours is now ours once again

"Now, please go and celebrate let the lore know that this is our home."

Celebrate he would, for sure. It was just difficult to determine how. Part of him wondered if his little party favor treats had anything left to them in the meadows, part of him wanted to tear through the night howling until he couldn't anymore. And the last part of him simply wanted to remain and play and lounge with his newfound friends, enjoying the celebration for what it was. Tipping his muzzle back, he let out a deep, graveled howl, supporting the others' songs and bolstering them.

He made a note to catch up with Queenie at some point as she walked off, tail waving, but he didn't quite want to dip from the group yet. There was still more socializing to be done, and Scully seemed intent on a party; who was he to deny one? Tail waving behind him in wide sweeps, Moore rose to his paws, joining closer to the rest of everyone once again.

It was with a sense of intrigue that he observed some of the others. Most of them decided to remain, congregating in a display of theatrics and camaraderie, just as Avella suggested they ought to do. It seemed to be initiated by Scully, who, from what little Alarick had seen of him so far, appeared to be the more rambunctious of the sibling duo.

He would not be among those remaining though. Even back home, Al had never fancied himself to be the sort for.. parties, or social gatherings of this kind. And he certainly did not need to be a hindrance or a depressant to the group’s celebration. His time would be better spent productively. By continuing to scout the territory for prey movements, and perhaps marking borders as he went.

They had really done it and though she'd kept her composure through the announcement she was somewhat in a state of shock. Through these months she'd wondered if she and Scully would be able to fulfill their goal. When the idea had been first conceived things hadn't gone well. Now as she watched the wolves of the newly named Ridge celebrate she couldn't help but smile.

Avella was happy for all of them and happy to give them what they may not have had before. The new leader let her voice join in with the others as her brother led the celebrations this time. Then as her voice faded she decided to join in with the others. Tonight they party and tomorrow it would be back to business.
