Unrealistic Role Play

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"Just some pack drama," he replied, standing again. He shook out his fur, as if attempting to release a layer of stress that had been resting in his pelt.

[Raven]

Whisper shook her fur. Still a bit stunned from seeing the new wolves. "Interesting."

[Raven]

Whisper sat down by Just. "Why did they come?"

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He finally decided to stop beating around the bush and cut to the chase. "She was just scouting pack borders, though I don't understand why she was doing it alone, considering -- one -- that's just asking for trouble, and -- two -- she's one of the smaller wolves in the pack. I don't know what he was up to, though; just being troublesome and malicious, like all the teenage boys want to be, I suppose, but he was taking it to a degree that can't be within pack regulations. At least, I hope it isn't." Just frowned, then he brushed Shae's tail with his own. "Sorry for snapping at you earlier, by the way -- about the sidekick thing. I was just anxious, focused."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He rumbled a gentle, relaxed sigh, sliding down to his stomach. "I'm envious," Just replied with an almost nervous chuckle.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"I would much rather be bored right now, Shae," he remarked with a cocked eyebrow.

[Raven]

Whisper nodded, "Well, maybe they're nice."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He automatically turned his gaze towards the sky in reaction, then shrugged. "If needs be, then feel free to get some shut-eye." He made it sound as if he wasn't planning on going to sleep anytime soon.

[Raven]

Whisper shook her fur, "I'll sleep when you two do."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"A ninja," he scoffed, but in a playful, teasing manner. "Right." Just rolled his eyes towards Shae, then his gaze flicked between she and Whisper. "Fine; sleep when you will. But it could be a long night if you stay up as long as I."

[Raven]

Whisper backed away. "If you wish, then I'll sleep." She chose a small spot near a rock but still close to the other two wolves.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He rumbled a grunt as Shae jumped on him, heaving himself to his paws automatically in attempt to make her fall one way or the other with a small smirk. He then glanced in Whisper's direction and replied, "I do not wish one way or the other. It is your choice."

[Raven]

Whisper nodded. She layed on the ground and fell asleep.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"You wouldn't," he sneered with a small twitch of a grin. "I know you." His gaze was menacingly challenging, practically dangerous as he turned to face her and peered into hers.

[Raven]

Whisper opened one eye. "Okay, I cannot sleep. I should stay up with you two."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He rumbled a chuckle as he glanced over at Whisper. "I figured."

[Raven]

Whisper looked over at Just and gave him an annoyed look. She laughed quietly

[Raven]

Whisper walked quietly over to Just. She nugded him a tiny bit.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

Just cocked his eyebrow, watching Shae and Shae only from where he stood, even when Whisper nudged him; in a way, he was challenging Shae, but in another way, he was warning her.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

His ears twitched towards the noise, and, sensing Shae's distraction, he peered towards the sound, a low rumble in his throat.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

His hackles rose, and he took a defensive step towards the stranger. "Excuse me," he snapped, "who exactly are you?"

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He glared at the stranger, staring at him until he disappeared in the distance, then he sighed softly and turned towards Shae, dropping to his stomach. "Who was that?" Just eyed the female.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"Your brother?" He raised his eyebrow, his voice raising slightly. When he continued, he had calmed and recomposed himself. "I didn't know you had a brother."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"I could tell." He glanced back in the direction the stranger had come as if he would appear again at any second. "I don't blame you for not telling anyone. But I have to ask, why was he bothering you like that?"

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He growled, his hackles raised. "As long as I'm around, he won't touch you, Eshansa."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"Really." He peered sincerely into her eyes with his own aqua ones. "You are my sidekick, after all." A warm smile broke through, and he winked at her.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He grunted as she tackled him, rolling over automatically as she did so. He raised his eyebrow and crooked her a small smile.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He laughed, rolling all the way around until he was on his stomach again. "Excuse me; do I look like a pillow to you?"

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He grumbled. "I'm too old to chase after you," he grunted, stretched out his paws like he was dragging his body across the ground.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He smirked and rolled his eyes. "Glad I amuse you, Shae."

[Raven]

Whisper tilted her head, confused by the game. She shook her head as if it was nothing but a game.

[Raven]

Whisper walked closer to the other two.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"You don't know that," he scoffed at Shae then he threw a friendly smile in Whisper's direction.

[Raven]

Whisper nodded, "Well I never knew that you were an old wolf." She laughed quietly

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"Of course, you haven't even known me for a day." He winked at Whisper.

[Raven]

Whisper smiled, "I knew that."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

"Uh-huh." He laughed softly.

[Raven]

Whisper kicked some dirt.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He watched Whisper for a moment and then heaved himself to his paws, allowing himself to grunt a couple times to play the "old" role he had just given himself (and in the meantime, he tried his best not to let a smile break through his hard, focused mask).

[Raven]

She moved over to him. "Haha, very funny."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He finally allowed himself to grin, seeming pleased with himself. "I know," Just chuckled.

[Raven]

She rolled her eyes. "Is there any food around. I'm hungry."

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He shook out his black pelt and then nodded. "Of course. Follow me." He threw her a kind smile and then he turned away from the small clearing, following his nose now; hopefully he could hunt out a rabbit or vole or something small that wouldn't take a whole pack to catch.

[Raven]

"Yay!" She smiled and jumped into a trot behind him.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

To his relief, it was merely seconds until he came across a rabbit's scent trail; it was very fresh, too, which meant that it had only passed by minutes before. He breathed it in and turned in its direction, quickening his pace but still remaining silent.

[Raven]

She sat down and watched

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

In seconds he located the rabbit and almost immediately, he found himself to have tackled the white body and he snapped its neck before it could cry out. It was a pretty good catch. "Dinner is served," he barked, beckoning Whisper over with a flick of his tail.

[Raven]

She ran over and took a bite.

[McKell, The Queen Bee]

He smiled crookedly and began eating the rabbit himself.

[Raven]

"Thank you so much, this is soo good!"
