The Gig, Sunday

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

Even with clouds in the sky, the weather was warm, and so Firekeeper and Blind Seer took the horses out to the paddock after the morning's chores. Firekeeper sprawled lazily on the grass as Blind Seer took up a game of chase with the horses. The game amused her, in that they'd been playing it almost as long as the wolves had been working with the horses, and still none of them tired of it.

At least there were no strange pieces of luggage today; her own arrivals on Friday had not been plentiful, but they'd been enough to make her brooding and sulky all day Saturday.

Brooding and sulking was something Jake was rather good at. Actually, he done it for the most part of yesterday's evening which might have had something to do with his screw up with Rosalind. Possibly.

He'd spent the night outside. It'd been cooler than staying in the cabins for one, and for another well sometimes it was just easier being a wolf. Sometimes it was just easier hanging out with other wolves, which was what'd led him down to the Gig, remembering it was Firekeeper's day.

He considered going out there wolf shaped, but then someone might come by and ask questions. So in the end, it was a Jacob shaped boy who leaned against the fence, wearing nothing but a cut off pair of jeans with black hand shaped stains. "Are they used to wolves or is Blind Seer just special?" he called.

"Jacob!" Firekeeper greeted happily, although she made no move to get up from her spot on the grass; indeed, she didn't even open her eyes. "Some of both," she explained the behavior of the horses.

She didn't have to move, the grass looked greener at the other side of the fence anyway. He jumped up and over the fence easily and his bare feet barely made a sound on the grass as he made his way over to her.

"So they wouldn't like it much if I joined in?" he guessed, not that he had a desire to, honestly. It just looked amusing.

"They are not so sure of you," she replied, in a tone that, for her, was a teasing one.

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"Smart horses," he decided as he plopped down on the ground beside her. "I'll leave the horse chasing to Blind Seer then. It's too warm to run around like that anyway."

She finally deigned to crack open one eye and look over at him. "Then will you be the one to tell him such?"

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"Nah, he's old enough to figure that out for himself," Jacob chuckled. "Maybe it's just because I'm hot headed."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Must be so," Firekeeper agreed, deadpan. "So, what bring your hot head here?"

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

He snorted and flopped onto his back, the grass tickling a little. "What? I can't just want to hang with the rest of the wolves?"

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Is still a reason," she pointed out, reaching over to slug him lightly on the shoulder.

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"Okay, that's why then. And I haven't bugged you for a while," he grinned. "I wouldn't want you to get used to it."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Mmm," she made a noise of agreement. "Is never good to get too used to things. Makes one lazy. Am so lucky you are here to help with that."

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

"Hey, anytime," he said easily, stretching his arms out over his head. "I like to make myself useful. So how are the cabins?"

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Well enough," Firekeeper said, and had she not been lying down, that would have been accompanied by a shrug. "Is good to be so near forest. Sometimes we just sleep out there." Not that they didn't do so during the rest of the year, but it happened more frequently during the cabin stays, it seemed. Hard to resist the pull of the woods when they were right there.

"Yeah, it's almost like being back in La Push," he glanced at her. "I've been sleeping outside every few days to spare the cabin from my snoring. They might have to just deal if this turns into rain."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"You afraid of sleeping in rain?" Firekeeper scoffed.

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

He raised an eyebrow and glanced at her. That sounded like a challenge. "No, but I wouldn't want you to mock me for looking like an afro wolf once I dry up."

Not that his fur had a tendency to curl.
