(( >D *has already read it* heart
And ack- see you later, then. x3; ))
Now this surprised a small laugh out of the earth-toned male. Chuckling, Akamu nodded. "Yes, I suppose that I could be considered a puppies man. I certainly find the company of pups to be favorable to that of some of the adults I have known in the past."
This female was certainly making an impression on Akamu- she seemed to have a surprising amount in common with him, and he enjoyed talking with her.

((*takes out shiney men in black flashy mind eraser thingie* Bwah! >D *le poof*
Hmm... *steals watch* cool *le poof again* ))
“Yes I do have to admit, that is my favourite part about this side of the woods,” Lavena caught herself giggling as well. “Do you mind if I come over to your side?” She asked, the river wasn’t very wide, and quite easily crossable. The grey wolf was planning to cross anyways further upstream, and was feeling extremely rude, stretching her voice to cover the distance.
Akamu seemed rather pleasing different from the other males Lavena had met, even out of all the pups, he seemed the most alike…and a ‘puppy-man’? What a pleasant surprise!
(( *le poof* Bwahaahaahaa ninja ))

"No, I do not mind if you come over to my side, Lavena." Still with a smile on his face- remnants of the laugh from before- Akamu stood again, backing up a pace or two just in case Lavena needed the room, before sitting again. It would certainly be easier to speak with this interesting female without having to raise his voice to make sure that she heard him.
Apparently she wished to have a longer talk with him than the river would allow- as it would wear on the voice, eventually. That, or she had had enough of stretching her voice, as he was beginning to. Either way, it would be a pleasant change to speak with her normally.
A part of his mind was still caught on the phrases Lavena'd used.. "puppies girl" and "puppies man." Akamu supposed that the phrases fit well enough, but it was still something he had not heard before. Thinking of it still provoked a small smile out of him.

(( XD;;; Sorry this took so long. ))
Akamu tilted his head to the side a little, in a somewhat puppyish gesture of curiosity. Why was Lavena acting nervous? Of course he would help! Puppies had always held priority for the dusty coated wolf, and he would never turn down the opportunity to help them out if it was possible. Going to join Hige's pack might have posed a small problem, but Akamu had already planned on making frequent trips to the freelands
"I am honored that you decided to ask me- and of course. I will help to the best of my ability." Akamu gave her another smile and a small wag of his tail against the grass, reinforcing his words.

((No problem,
Um just a warning that I'll be gone starting Sunday for six days ._. ))
Lavena’s face beamed in delight, oh how wonderful and kind this wolf was, and to help the puppies? Her heard skipped a beat in pure pleasure. “Most of the youngest ones are found downstream,” Her narrow mussel shifted to look at the wide expanse. “There is a school of larger fish found feeding this time of year, and they like to try there luck. However the largest fish I’ve seen one of them walk out with was a minnow.”
The husky shaded wolf sided to her feet, waiting for the male to do the same. “I can usually pick out a couple fairly good sized ones for them, and after try my luck at the rabbits for myself…and maybe another pup if they are interested,” her artic orbs glanced at him. “Have you ever tried rabbit from this side of the woods? It’s simply delicious…although the pups do prefer the fish. Quite honestly I do think they enjoy playing with them much more then eating them.”

(( D: Well, have a good time wherever your going. >< ))
Akamu's smile grew a fraction wider. He felt extremely proud to have made Lavena so obviously happy. She was unlike any wolf he had yet met in the freelands- or even in his old pack, save for one old female that had considered everyone her grandchild. An odd warmth seeped into his bones, but he paid no mind to it. He would mull over it later, when he was alone.
The dusty male heaved himself into a standing position as well, shaking himself a little to rid his underside of the remainder of the dew he had laid on earlier. Glancing downstream, Akamu eyed the river. A small chuckle eminated from him at the mention of the puppies attempts at hunting fish.
"I would think that you are right. It is a puppy's foremost job to play, before they must grow up and survive." He glanced toward her with a nod. "I have tasted the rabbit here, and I agree- It is better fare than in other places in the freelands. I prefer them to the fish, but the scaled prey is not bad tasting."

((Thanks, I might find a computer or two...
Were driving down to Idaho with my cousins *dies* ))
She briefly closed her eyes, allowing the wind to swirl in her still slightly damp silver fur. As she turned back the wolf couldn't help to share the glowing warmth inside her heart. Knowing it was not a far distance, she decided walking would be a rather comfortable speed. If Akamu wished to take it slightly faster, she wouldn't object. Slowly the grey creature set a pace, making room so that the other wolf could easily walk beside her.
"I could only wish that for every pup," she stumbled upon a few memories of rather furious young ones, and even some teens. "The forest would be so much kinder..." Her words trailed off, wondering if they had had a proper childhood, would they had turned out differently. "No pup deserves to be packless."

(( Eee. o.o *pets* ))
Akamu trotted the short distance needed to move himself so that he could walk beside Lavena, then slowed his pace to match hers. The wolf sobered at her words, his ears setting back slightly. He had not yet had to deal with pups or adolescents who were angry about their packless status- rather, the one's he'd met had often already formed their own adoptive families. But that didn't rule out the fact that those frustrated and angry younglings did exist...
Even the pups that had formed impromptu families were still looking for their former relatives, or trying to join packs on their own. None of them had been content to remain alone.
"No, they do not." He sighed briefly. "Would that I could prevent such a thing from coming to pass, though it is all too common it seems."

(( Whichever you wanna do is fine. x3 ))
He nodded briefly. Destinies oftentimes cared little for what they did to the wolves who possessed them, whether it was a good thing or not.
Catching her attempt to brighten the mood at least a little bit, Akamu summoned a somewhat less serious face, a small smile quirking the edges of his mouth, and responded to her nuzzle with a gentle, friendly nudge of his own muzzle. "Agreed. Pups do not need to bother themselves with our solomnity."
At her joy upon seeing the small figure ahead, Akamu's smile grew a fraction. "Perhaps we should speed our pace then, to reach the youngling sooner?"

(( I don't. x3 ))
Slipping into an easy energy saving, but ground eating trot, Akamu kept one ear focussed to the side, to catch Lavena's words while he watched the figures ahead of them. It seemed that the female knew many of the pups in this area by name- and of course, that was only natural. Briefly, Akamu wondered why he'd thought she wouldn't, when she apparently fed them all, or as many as she could, frequently.
But, that was a thought for later.
The earthy wolf's mood lifted again at the sight of the other pups surrounding the first they'd seen. "Ah.. It is good that a group of them have banded together. They stand a much better chance of survival that way- and it makes it much easier to find." He glanced to the female beside him, noticing her fractional downshift in mood, and attempted to lighten it again with his shoddy joke. Really, it was a surprise that Akamu knew any at all- he was normally such a reserved wolf. Perhaps Lavena just brought out the more cheerful side of him. He did wonder what had happened to their families, but it was important now that they be fed first, and looked after.
Either way, they would soon come upon the younglings.

Lavena grinned widely at his joke, forcing to keep bubbles of laughter in, although she nodded to his first words. Knowing Orioas, it would be an interesting meeting. For there was never a dull moment with him and his ‘clan’. “They’ve spotted us.” She whispered although it ended up being a giggle as they came closer. She prepared for the worse, as from past knowledge this pup had no concept of reality. Not that any pup would of course…just with lacking the wide span of imagination the little pup held.
“Stop and bow to your king!” Orioas bellowed, his midnight blue fur gleaming with water droplets. “Bow or I’ll send my army of alligators,”- The three other wolves began to resemble the creatures, although one seemed to be lost in hysterics-“and…and…er…rocks! Big ones with sharp pointy teeth…and eat two leggers!” He waved his paws to enforce this.
“Good morning to you too Orioas,” Lavena managed to hold down her own laughter, walking over and nuzzling the small creature. “I see you’re hungry.”
