I smiled uncomfortably. Family. Oh, yes, I remember my family. My pack. "Yes, I do." It was simply stated, and not enough information. I did not wonder why he asked such things. I merely assumed he wanted to get closer to me, get to know me a little more. And asking questions was a good way of finding something out. I elaborated, "I don't live with them anymore, or even know where they are. They're..." My voice trailed off, and I shrugged, attempting to finish the statement, "They're... no longer my family. But they once were." I finished, happy with this explanation. I did not realize it sounded jumbled and confusing. With such a wordy response, it still told almost nothing about them. It didn't tell who they where, why I wasn't with them, or any of the important answers that one may hope for. But I did not realize this. Conversing was my weakness. It was my Achilles' heel. I sigh, attempting to change the subject, "What about you? Do you have any family somewhere, far, far away?"
I glanced up at the stars, weaving an intricate tapestry in the loom of blackness. There were so many of them, so different and yet so uniform. They were similar in so many ways, any particular star not standing out in any way. I felt that way about my family. The only time I was special was when I was wrong. When I messed up, and said something stupid. Or mean. Or cruel and insensitive. I spoke my mind, and paid for it. The stars, too, rejected their outcasts. We see them as shooting stars. Am I a shooting star? I sighed, and concentrated on Silver. He was not an outcast. How could he be? He was handsome, sensitive, caring, and strong. He was probably more perfect than anything else in the world. Or in the skies above. My mind wanders to his past. Did he hide a terrible secret? Who was this wolf, besides a loyal friend and possible lover? It dawned on me that I was not being fair, for I told him almost nothing, and yet I wish for information on his past. I console this thought by chiding it with the notion that if he wants to know, he would ask...If I had not already steered the conversation away from me.

"Well I guess it's good you have some..." He said looking down at his paws. "And no, as far as I know of I don't have any family. I know I was adopted and I was always treated that way. I was basically an outcast." Silver said sadly "There really isn't a place for a wolf in a pack of coyotes, I'm not even really sure why they took me in at all..."

I shake my head as he says, "Well, I guess it is good you have some." Is it so great? Hurt came bubbling from the scar, trying disparately to heal. Once again, I mentally pick at it. The more you pick, the longer it takes. Still, I could not stop picking. No, it wasn't a good thing for me. Maybe for them, it was good they were alive. For me, though, it was a constant reminder of my failures, of my mark of failure, and the guarantee that I would continue to fail. So long as they succeeded, I would fail. Simple as that. He went on to say that he was adopted by coyotes, and I responded mournfully, "At least you were accepted somewhere."
ooc; I'm sorry it is soo short. I'm having trouble staying long when you aren't. Can you describe a bit more? *puppy face*

"There is a difference from being accepted and being tolerated... I think the only reason they took me in is because the alpha let them hunt on the packs territory and they felt grateful so they couldn't kill me because that would cause conflicts. I was beat up every day by almost everyone, when I got big enough to fight back the alpha started to attack me, so when I could fend for myself I just left... Not exactly a warm and cozy family I guess..." Silver said slightly sad

I felt the need to chime in with disdain, At least you were even tolerated somewhere. My past haunted me. There were horrible things welled up inside of me, deep scars of my past. I tried to force out the voices. Restlessly, I got up, twirled, and pranced about him. I circled him, and made a game of it. Twirling about the grasses, I hid. A game.
I fought boredom as it swept through me. It was time to prance toward a new acquaintance, my Moonlight. Again. ooc; Moonlight, this is going nowhere. We should disband or make a new thread.

I'm out of muse, I've reached an all-time low, and I'm contemplating quitting. I don't want to, but this thread started out soo well and then went down hill. THis is NOT at all good for my writing. I need to be better and face the challenge. But there's nothing really there...
