    You know, in retrospect, perhaps he really ought to've brought a sweater with him, 'cause he's gonna freeze his butt off at this rate. It's a genuine fear. He can't remember the last time he felt so cold — maybe he should've stayed down south — and frankly, he's not sure his body's ever going to grow accustomed to how damn freezing it is (and yet, once he warms his toes again, he'll probably come to terms with the fact that, once again, he's being melodramatic. It's probably not that cold to the average person, but when you're used to the long, sticky heat of his hometown, it's kind of hard to immediately adjust. Looks like Mama was right. Again.)


    And now, he's not usually one to be unprepared, but he's caught off-guard by how different this all is. Luckily, he's usually able to convince a power or two to let him transport his belongings without actually hauling them over, and he supposes that he can always try and do so the moment he next gets a break. He figures that it won't take long for him to do what he needs to do — i.e. join (he's always been fascinated by the clans, and this one, well. He's been drawn to it for a while, mulling over it and other options, and despite the climate, he's not too deterred not disappointed by what he's so far seen) — and is more than prepared to wait, despite how much he'd rather not.


    He shifts his weight, perking his ears and listening out for signs of life. Part of him wants to call out, but he doesn't know these people, and he's not sure how loud he can get in a place like this.

    The steadily decreasing temperature didn't bother the male, as he was quiet used to the cold, but he always had a scarf on his person, just in case, but not this time, no. He was scarfless, and seeing the chilled looking male made his heart sink. "if I had my scarf, I'd offer it to you, but today's the one day I didn't bring it. Expected it to be warmer out today." the lion sighed, eyes drooping and dull. He had been in a depressed state like this for a while. "anyways.. Name and business?"

    So, there was someone at the border? And he was a male too. Sauntering over, the young hellhound took a seat and sent a wink over in Seth's direction before adjusting his position so he was now gazing at the joiner with fiery eyes. "Hey there pretty boy, I would ask for your name and what you're doing here but it seems that question has already been asked." Stron would state in a calm yet still somewhat bright tone.

  • [fancypost borderwidth=0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt;]Ain't it funny how a lion manages to sneak up on him? He'll blame it on the fog, but even so, a lion? Really? He's not interacted with many sentient animals outside of domestic cats; sure, there were a few horses, a bunch of sheep, but they seemed pretty simple-minded to him, and even if they weren't, horses and sheep are pretty tame in comparison to a lion — though this one doesn't seem intent on eating him (of course not. This is a civil clan, apparently. He's checked). "Oh. Um. Wow." already out of his depth, Eric spends a few moments chewing on his bottom lip, teeth skirting the skin, and then he ceases, because that's a terrible habit to pick up. "Oh. Don't worry about it! I'm fine." he's not, not really, and he'd give anything to be able to settle back and complain about how damn cold it is — preferably whilst being warmed up. He's that cold, his powers are even less helpful than they usually are.


    'Name and business' is an endearing term, and Eric considers it for a bit — and in that time, someone else has managed to sneak up on him, and this one— "Oh Lord." this one has antlers, but he's a— a wolf? Something like that. And his eyes look like they're on fire. It's a lot to take in (and then there's the flirting, and his gaydar goes off, and he's never had that before. In a town like his, there isn't much opportunity to, um. Be yourself). "Um." is that all he can say, today? C'mon, Bittle! You're a country-dwellin', God-fearin', Beyoncé-lovin' boy. You can do this. "Bittle. Eric Bittle. I want to, um. Join." honestly, he's adept at communication, he's just stranded in a strange place and yet to adjust. Part of him wants to add that he's not usually so incompetent, but he can't seem to form the words. He'll leave it at that, and then self-rant later. Maybe he'll be able to conjure a camcorder. Who knows?

    Rushed!


    He liked this guy- very much so, this bittle. "well bittle, swing by my place later and I'll make you hot chocolate or something. I'm sethepicous, by the way."

    Studying Eric's response carefully, Stron sighed lightly, sending the feline a calm grin "No need to be nervous there love," the boy assured calmly, there really was no point in being nervous since everyone here was pretty nice, at least he was anyway.


    If he didn't know any better, this guy was lacking a little in the confidence apartment but that was just what just what first impressions said, he couldn't judge just yet. "Well then, welcome to The Ghostlands, I'm Strontiumpaw but you can just call me Stron." The boy introduced, winking as he finished his statement. He should probably get better at this flirting business but he was only young after all.

  • [fancypost borderwidth=0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt;]The fairly-friendly offer encourages him to relax just a touch, shoulders slipping from their drawn-back position, and Eric's eyes light up — though, not a moment later, his expression once more becomes something of slight shock at the name, because there is no way he'll be able to pronounce that monster of a moniker on his first go. "Oh, um. Thanks. Seth. I mean— um. Can I call you Seth?" he can hear his Mama's voice in his head (lions are awful big, aren't they, Dicky?), and he almost nods in agreement, pressing his lips into a warm smile again, though it is somewhat awkward, admittedly. He just hopes he's not stepping on any toes on his first day. He needs to make a good impression when he introduces himself to the clan, right?


    He's not, um. Nervous. Honestly, he's just a little daunted by the new faces, the bodies so unlike the ones he's used to. He's not discriminating, though! It's refreshing, just.. strange. "Oh! No, I'm not. Ha. Ha-ha." he pauses. ".. haaaaa." okay, but that's definitely a nervous laugh. Eric blinks a few times, fixes another warm smile to his features. "Nice to meetcha, Stron."

    [fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 450px; margin-top: -6px;][justify][font=arial][size=9pt][color=#969696]It felt weird walking into a group of males, mostly because well... this thing didn't just happen normally. Stopping momentarily, the white feline would tilt his cranium to the side, scowling internally. That hadn't been his thought, and he was sure he knew who the dirty minded perp was, quite literally. Without missing a beat, he'd continue making his way over, hesitantly taking a seat. "Um.. Lucien says hello..." he would pause again, realizing he hadn't heard the others name. "Um. Could you repeat your name, please, slowly?" he'd question gently, not explaining why. He never did, really.
