Dwaal Apricity nervously padded to the white picket fence, he didn't see anyone, but then again he couldn't see over the fence. Too nervous to jump over, he stood on his hind legs, trying to look over the fence "Uhm, hello?" he softly called, he was too shy to speak any louder.

Dwaal startled, his blue eyes wide as he landed back on his forepaws "M-My name is Dwaal Apricity, I would like to join the Tribe." he winced at his own stuttering 'I'm too nervous!' he tried to stand straighter, slowly gaining his confidence.

Dwaal's eyes brightened and he nodded to Damien in appreciation, the turned to Olivinepaw "Nice to meet you! I'm Dwaal Apricity, if you didn't already hear. You can call me Dwaal if you want." this was his best attempt at making friends. He assumed that he did a good job and smiled.

Dwaal tried not to scoot back "H-Hello, Nice to meet you too, Karoku." he was very much intimidated by the couger, although he tried to keep a friendly face.

Dwaal shyly made his way up to the group, seeing that the kangaroo who had called the meet and greet was talking with someone, he sat down next to a Thunderbird.

Dwaal turned to the Jaguar who had sat opposite of him "Hi, I'm Dwaal Apricity." he did his best to maintain a friendly smile, he was silently proud that he hadn't studdered.

Dwaal slowly meandered around camp, humming a quiet tune 'I don't know where to go....' he decided to ask for a tour, or maybe he would just ask what he should do. He felt...awkward not doing anything when everyone else seemed so busy. The new citizen tried padding up to the first person he saw, not really caring who it was "Hi, I was wondering if you could show me around?"

Dwaal thought for a second before deciding what to call her "it nice to meet you Cindy!" he smiled, surprised at the wide variation between species.
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
"Yep, I'm Dwaal Apricity!" His confidence was now at full flow "It's very nice to meet you Passionpaw!" his tail was high in the air.

Dwaal curiously glanced at Wonder's tail "Hello, Wonder."
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal chuckled "They never seem to." his own tail flickered
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal turned to the she-cat who had just walked up "Hello, I'm Dwaal. what's your name?" seeing that she was shy he tried to be reassuring, knowing how it felt to meet someone for the first time.
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal understood that she was usually mute "It's nice to meet you, Silentsong." he smiled again, he had to make sure everyone's name matched up with their faces.

Dwaal meandered up to the scent of muffins, seeing a small crowd he debated muffins, and claustrophobia; muffins won, so he walked over "Hi Cindy! Can I have one?" he scanned the muffins "Are there any blueberry?"
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal nodded "I would like it if you showed me around! And I'm sure it's fine if you come along." he smiled, silently hoping that there wouldn't be a large group of people, although if there were he would try not to mind.
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal nodded, looking towards the forest curiously "Do you have to sleep in the barn or can you sleep in other places?"
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal nodded, looking to his right 'Cant wait for winter!' he could already imagine the meadows and forest covered in fluffy snow, the sudden warmth of sun as it appeared from a light-grey cloud. He looked up at the current sky, only to see a clear, blue expanse.
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal's tail fluffed slightly and he turned around "M-murders?" he had failed at not stuttering
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
"A-are they often? D-do we have to worry, w-wait...I..." Dwaal sat down for a moment, took a deep breath, and re-imagined his winter paradise 'Frost on the trees, thick grey clouds. The crisp sound the snow would make when you step on it...' he lost himself in thought, his face still screwed up in concentration.
[/shadow]
[shadow=Black,left]
Dwaal looked up and smiled, he had already picked up a warm muffin "Im fine with these, unless you want to make another batch!" he carefully peeled the wrapper off and took a bite "Wow! These are delicious!" he licked his maw and took another bite.
