((I. Am. So. Sorry. I forgot about this thread. Please forgive me TT^TT))

Ea considered each wolf's reply thoughtfully. Koli was well spoken and Thor respectful. A good pair. Ea smiled sideway at Akuma. He seemed well suited to finding wolves for the pack. He was a good wolf. A good friend. Was her face getting warm. She cleared her throat-and head-and focused back on the two in front of her. "What skills do you possess that you think would benefit the pack? Any and all you can think of."

Darklight said nothing this time. Instead she was focused on what she saw on her sister's face, and who it was directed at. She burned holes in Akuma's hide with her eye-figuratively...for now-at what she realized. It was only momentary, but unless one had known Ea for a while, they would not have noticed the pause in her speech, the way she looked at AKuma...

[Oki]

((Well hopefully everything's fine now Vivid and you're not sick anymore. Though with the beginning of the school year now, I might be a little slow myself. ^^)

Ack, skills. Koli knew that this question might have been asked and still wasn't too prepared as to what skills he held. The reason why he became a loner was...well at least on his part, an involuntary act of treachery in killing a pack-mate. He really didn't have much time to develop or hone any skills as it was his teacher that he killed. However, on his own, his experience was par with average hunters and trackers, so he supposed that could be a qualifying skill. Koli answered unsure, "Well, if you are in need of an additional hunter, I can fulfill that duty...", he paused to think a little more. There was an attribute to his demonic gift of darkness to store things in this alternate dimension. Though it wouldn't probably be much of help right now, but he went with it as he really doesn't have much else to lose, "...I also have the ability to store, basically an infinite amount of items in an alternate dimension...I know that I have no trust with anyone, but if and when I do, I can store items from enemies or hide someone from an enemy...like you Serra Ea, for example I can let you hide there if an enemy were to attack or if your life was in danger...", he trailed off, deciding to demonstrate.

Without moving, a pitch black mist started to seep from his form, contrasting greatly from his white coat. It fell to the ground quickly, showing its much heavier than the air around them. A cloud formed around his ankles, completely opaque and unable to see through it. Looking around, he picked up a large rock with his mouth and the cloud extended and lifted into the air, creating this portal in mid air. Throwing it into it, it disappeared. Seconds later, another cloud appeared a few meters off and the stone dropped to the ground out of it. Each cloud dissipating then, the black mist receded back into his body. "...I can allow to escape and hide you there until it is safe; only I am able to access this alternate dimension and who or what can exit or enter it.", he finished. His tone, however, wasn't too excited nor was it sad. He explained it in a more tired and wary tone, but smiled as he finished, hoping the others wouldn't freak out or outcast him.

[Vivid]

He listened to Koli, and stared in awe at the clouds and rock. Thor let his ears lower in defeat, quickly coming to terms that his skills weren't all that great. After all, fishing was hard when there was three paws of ice between you and the fish... His tail twitched behind him as he thought, speaking gently as he came up with things.
"Well... I'm better at fishing then hunting, but I've never really been taught to hunt, so I'd assume that's why. Uhh... I can fly," On cue his wings twitched, a sudden blush flushing under his fur. "Even though it may not look like it. My magic is based pretty much on this climat, so I guess in a fight, it's to my advantage." He finished, shifting a bit awkwardly on his paws, unable to think of anything else.

[Relairah]

It seemed Ea wanted to know each detail before she considered them joining. That was good. It showed she was careful and thought considerably and widely before choosing just anyone. It made him feel all the more happy she had accepted his membership some time before this. It was at that moment he caught her side-way smile toward him and he smiled back, feeling his heart quicken and such. But then her gaze was focused on Koli and Thor once again and he felt he should do the same. He hardly gave note to Darklight's look. Afterall, he didn't think she'd be too happy if she found out how he felt about her.

But that could be addressed later.

His ears turned as he listened to the response given by each of the other males. Koli seemed intriguing, somewhat mysterious perhaps, like there was something more, but yet, maybe not. He also seemed to be honest enough. He had to admit that the whole accessing an alternate dimension thing could definitely come in handy... well, depending on the situation. For Akuma, he briefly thought of his past adventures. He didn't think such would happen here in Sub Serin, but then again, you never know...

Akuma pulled his thoughts back to focus... his mind was all over the place, he reprimanded himself. Thor was talking about how he could fish and his magics. Briefly the introduction as a musical wolf came to mind. He wondered if that would be a relative skill. Akuma knew of a wolf within the Allied Packs who was musical... hers was magic, yes, but it was a mesmerizing ability. To calm others and soothe emotions. Or to drive others mad. He wondered if Thor had any such skill... at first, he hesitated, thinking he might just remain silent. Surely, it would become a question at some point. But then he was curious and why not now?

"What of your musical talent?" he asked, tilting his head slightly and watching Thor curiously.

[thunder]

(Can I join? This thread appears to be pretty stocked up with wolves so I understand if I can't)

[Relairah]

((Eh, I don't mind haha. I mean it is open XD You should probably wait for everyone else's say as well...))

[Oki]

((Sure I don't mind Thundy.))

[Moon_Song]

((OoC: It's ok if you join, but I am just curious. Are you joining the thread to join the pack, or just to be in a thread?))

Ea studied Koli closely as he spoke. As de described his abilities, she felt that he would be a very good asset to the pack. Not only for a hunter, but for his ability to transport things. If there was some terribly dangerous situation, he could help everyone escape that needed to. She simply nodded, trying not to seem to eager to include him in the pack, and turned her attention to Thor.

He was very modest about his talents, that or he was just that unsure of them. Either way, a flying wolf was always a good asset to the pack, and he could learn to hunt. As she recalled, though, he had said something about being musical before. Akuma beat her to the punch and voiced her curiosity.

Ea smiled. "A good question. We of course have the music of voice, but we have none who can create music through other means." Ea's went on encouragingly, "Care to demonstrate?" She moved her paw in a sweeping motion around her, indicating that Thor could go to whatever means it was he used to create his melody.

[Oki]

A sudden strain seemed to lift off his body as the dark mist absorbed back into his form. A mental sigh of relief came about, but he didn't show any physical likeness that any stress was being put on his body. After he finished talking, he clenched his jaws, hiding his wince of suffering.

A smile slowly formed upon his muzzle as he listened to Thor speak. Modest, yes, but he still looked a little young and he still could be taught many things. He was curious about Thor's magic nonetheless. However, the idea of himself teaching him a few things came to mind, but many other possible outcomes quickly forced that thought out of his mind for the time being. First they didn't know much about each other and that could lead to other things. Koli wasn't sure of how well he could control his outbursts nor did he think he could hold up to training another...it was something to think about at a later date.

Koli eased himself down with a subtle grunt, like that of an old man taking a seat. He glanced around and noticed that the brown colored one beside the Serra wasn't saying much, especially to his demonstrated abilities. Then to Akuma. A brow raised slightly as he seemed to be looking off elsewhere, as if daydreaming or focusing on something else. It lowered again when Akuma's focus came back. As Thor mentioned his musical capabilities, he recalled upon just a short while ago when he first ran into the male. He was playing something on icicles and he didn't know the tune, but it sounded nice. Koli was curious if the male was going to choose it again or something else.

"Yes, shall we see of your musical skills, Prodigy?", a playfully evil smiled drew upon his face as he looked over at the young winged male, calling upon the nickname he gave him before he knew his name.

[Vivid]

His silver hues widened and he blushed darkly under his thick fur, a paw scuffing at the snow as his 'musical talent' was brought up. "I uh... I...." He stuttered slightly, feeling the pressure of the situation. As Ea gave a sweep of her paw he sighed, deciding to just face the music. (Pun intended.) The male stretched out after he stood and looked around for a decent hang of ice that wouldn't break under his paws, eventually finding an alright spot. He sat on his haunches in front of the ice, pawing across the hanging pieces to get the general sounds of them before continuing to paw them in a quite random sequence, hitting the 'notes' that worked well together. "I'm not exactly sure of real songs to play, or even if I'd be able to," He continued to paw the icicles a bit, stopping to turn around and face the others. "But I'm sure if there were any songs you knew, I could try to get a beat going. This was our entertainment in the winters when I was a pup." He gave a slight smile and gazed around at the others, feeling hot in his fur as he awaited any comments.

[Relairah]

Well... he certainly hadn't meant to make Thor feel uncomfortable, but it seemed the other would give a demonstration. He was somewhat curious, himself, considering he hadn't actually experienced the extent of it earlier. Mostly, he had gathered it from the nickname he'd been called before. In any case, ears were focused on the wolf's direction as he asked for something to play. He glanced around at the others, wondering if they had any ideas, before slowly, a tune drifted its way into his mind from the past. Yes, it was quite a familiar one, though he doubted Thor had ever heard it before. Still, perhaps if it was a talent, he could pick it up easily.

In truth, Akuma wasn't much for attention being all on him, at least, he was still getting there, but a hum wouldn't hurt...

At first it was soft, almost as if he was trying to remind himself for certainty, then it grew louder, his deep voice rumbling into the air. It would sound somewhat like a folklore tune, and would elevate in tempo. It was simple enough, and he hoped Thor would soon catch on. This was hardly his spotlight afterall...

[Moon_Song]

Darklight watched, a stoic expression on her face. A new hunter was always welcome, if they were any good, but a musician? That was a rarity, and, in her opinion, useless. Then again, it was her sister's decision, not hers. She kept her mouth shut, octagonally eyed Akuma suspiciously, and kept her mouth shut...for the time being.

She had not meant to make the little one feel uncomfortable, but he certainly was. She knew, though, that being put on the spot did that for anyone.

He asked if there were any requests, and while she thought, a low hum came from Akuma's direction. It was uncertain at first, but it grew more sure as Akuma did. A warm smile in Akuma's direction signified her approval (of both him and the song). She watched now, waiting to see what he would do with the song Akuma had offered.

[Oki]

With a rough start, Koli watched Thor stand up and wander over to a patch of icicles. He figured that was the main thing that he could play, but then again, he's understating Thor's abilities. He never heard of any wolf being able to 'play'[/i] anything and make music out of it. Being able to do such was a talent in itself. Before the young one started however, he didn't know exactly what to play. Of course not; how many songs are written by wolves? Though that didn't seem to stop Akuma. Koli heard humming in his direction, slowly getting louder and more pronounced.

The humming tune Koli never heard of before, perhaps a puphood song of Akuma's? He noticed a pattern within the song, something that Thor should pick up on easily. After a moment, he noticed that Thor still was faltering on how to start. Little did he know, Koli's tail began to thump against the snow with the beat of Akuma's hum. Just realizing it, he put a little more effort into his tail, making the thumping louder. Glancing over at the young winged male, Koli gave a dip of his head, encouraging him to begin.[/color][/size]

[Vivid]

Thor glanced at his paws for a bit as it stayed quiet, his ears perking as Akuma began to hum. Thor blinked as he got louder, going over the melody in his head, until Koli started to thump his tail His own swaying quickly behind him as two of the four joined in. The blue streaked male swung around and did another test swat at all the different icicles before joining them in the beat, one of his back paws tapping the snow as he sat back on his haunches. "I know it's not a life skill," He started, as if reading Darklights mind. "But it's something to do when nothing else is going on."

[Relairah]

He glanced toward Koli briefly and smiled when the other began thumping his tail, helping Thor out. Soon, the melody rose and he had to admit, it was rather impressive. Definitely unique and original. He couldn't help thinking that it was perfect for the pack getting together. Perhaps they might share stories or whatever. It somewhat reminded him of his old life... he pushed it aside. This tune was enough. He didn't want to stir up his feelings again. Not in front of so many. Those were reserved for Ea.

As the tune ended, he stopped, letting it fade, and a smile once more came to his lips. He glanced at Ea, wondering what she might say in response.
