Cliff

@✾ αα。Wonho 'I guess they're fine,' Yosuke answered, having sensed the humour from the other when they'd finally parted from each other in their play brawl. Before laying down on the ground with the other he stretched himself out, sticking his tail in the air and pushing his chest to the ground, a yawn whining out of him. He rounded around till he could be at Wonho's back, flopping down there and pressing his side into the white fur. It was the perfect warmth for the chilly day cooling him down. 'The question of the year, though, is exactly that,' the beta continued, resting his head on Wonho's flank, his eyes fluttering shut. 'I'm not exactly sure where I'm from, but I know I'm not a native of this place. But you'll have to keep that information to yourself. I like to keep my mysterious persona, y'know. Comes with being the best beta in town. What about you? You smell like...' He hesitated, shoving his nose into the other's fur just to get that familiar scent again. 'You smell... Like home. Pine needles and milk...' A pleasant hum rumbled deep in his chest. 'Where did you come from? Besides Butterfly... Mister alpha.'

@☠。Sugino Yosuke When they finally separated, Wonho rolled onto his side to lay down and pant. 'Primal.. haven't heard much from them lately. As for the best wolf thing... are you always so full of yourself?' He teased as his bright blue eyes fluttered shut to help him relax. Waiting until the comment fully registered to the other, he sat up to get a good look at his expression to make sure the other wolf caught onto his teasing. Lately it seemed liked people took him too seriously, or people just.. hated him. Even if he was losing control over a few wolves in his pack, he'd make up for it with the new ones coming in. After finally catching his breath, the alpha carefully pushed himself up before shaking out his fur. 'Alright, this is killing me... where are you from.' He finally asked, wanting to get to the bottom of why.. the other was so familiar.

@✾ αα。Wonho It was almost hilarious to Yosuke that all of this was happening. Especially after having spent most of his life as an outcast, to found someone that would get 2 feet away from him let alone wrestling was like entering a whole new world. The alpha pounced on him shortly after his lengthier introduction and all the beta could do was go along with it. The day was bright, the sky blue, the air just cold enough that had he been human he'd probably be cold, but with their constant movement and pinning and tackling and growling, he was warm. In all the ways the word could be interpreted. It'd been a long time since he'd felt so free. Every time he got close enough to smell Wonho he got the flashbacks of milk stuck to muzzles and pouncing lessons in the evenings while everyone was too busy to pay attention to them. Everything was so familiar. It almost felt like he could call him a mate, for how close he felt, except it lacked that ultimate bond. Eventually, the beta was getting winded, he had to take a step back during one of the few times he wasn't pinned to the grass, and recuperate. His jaw hung open, panting to regulate his heartbeat, though his eyes stayed on the alpha while his tail wagged, the amber orbs fixated. 'Y'know... I've never done this before,' he commented, his voice sounding strained even though he was speaking through the link. 'I mean... not without blood. I'm from Primal, if you were wondering. I don't have a fancy rank but I consider myself to be the best wolf in town.'

@☠。Sugino Yosuke As his tongue continued to smooth down the other's fur, he tried to jog his memory. No matter how much he tried to get a real picture on it, his mind went fuzzy. With a soft huff, he finally leaned back to get a good look into the beta's eyes. "Wonho... is my name now." He mumbled before rolling away from the other wolf. In a flash, he was on his feet again and ready for another round. Sparring partners were hard to come by, and something deep in his bones was telling him he needed all the practice. "I'm the alpha of the Butterfly pack... and I don't know how we got here. It just feels right." Was the answer he decided on. There was no way to explain their current position, especially from anyone looking in. Yet that didn't stop him from wanting to play, and eventually cuddle up with Yosuke. As he watched the other, his tail continued to wag steadily behind him in an attempt to convey the thought of play still on his mind. His large paws gently pushed a few rocks aside just to be careful before he suddenly pounced on the smaller wolf. The alpha's mouth easily fit around the other's neck, and he gently gnawed but not hard enough to cause any damage. Loud, but playful growled and snarls left him as he felt the other wriggle underneath him but nothing would stop this match. Well, unless the beta actually seemed hurt because let's be honest here. There was no way Yosuke could actually cause harm to an alpha, unless he had his guard down.

@✾ αα。Wonho It was like being a pup again. Yosuke couldn't remember the last time he'd had this much fun. Or the last time someone had allowed themselves to be this free with him. Everyone was always so scared. Of the rumours. Of the stories. Of him. The omegas shrank away from him, his over average beta size probably not helping, the alphas picked on him, though he never let that go without a fight. It was never this sort of soft and easy play and push that he was having with the stranger that was tugging on his ear. Yosuke let out a yap, struggling to get up, but the alpha's size was too large. His nose was deep in the other's neck scruff, trying to get some sort of grip with his teeth to change their positions to get revenge from that head bop he'd received earlier. But just when the wrestling got good the alpha flopped onto him, choosing to at his scruffy fur instead of nip at it. Usually Yosuke would sulk and whine, after all, how often did a good wrestling match come around (and one that wasn't with the intention of drawing blood from him at that)? The rhythmic of the other's large tongue settled him, though. The beta found himself relaxing into the grass, chest heaving slightly as he struggled to catch his breath. As he went in to return the same actions to the alpha fur went up his nose and he chuffed a sneeze out, shaking his head to rid himself of the mild embarrassment. "Yosuke," he hummed through their link, knowing his voice probably sounded different than other's he'd heard before. After all, he technically wasn't of this land, despite being nearly raised here. The beta pulled back, letting the alpha intake his scent before pushing a paw to his snout to get some distance. He didn't see a lot of white wolves around here. There was a faint memory of snowy nights, treading through powdery snow, away from his litter mates, to play with someone just on the borders of their camp. Someone who blended in with the snow, but the image was so foggy he couldn't put his nose on it. "Who are you? And how did we end up here?"

@☠。Sugino Yosuke ((Pure white, with icy blue eyes. I like the haircut that he had with the blond/blue so I ran with it. Yeah, let's go with it. I don't understand how wolves would be able to talk to each other anyway.))

A soft huff left him when the other pounced, allowing himself to be pushed away from the cliffs edge. Avoiding any accidents was ideal in a situation like this. As they wrestled in the grass, Wonho found himself growling and chirping as if he was a small pup again. Even when he was pinned, the large white wolf simply huffed a few times. Only to kick his back legs to easily push the beta off and to the side. Scrambling to his feet, he shook any dirt from his coat before taking a few steps back to examine his opponent. Yet instead of pouncing, he lifted one paw into the air and playfully batted at the smaller wolf's face to distract him. Only to lunge for his chest, easily using brute force to knock him onto his back. A few small nips were given, as well as a soft tug to the beta's ear but he found himself longing for something else. With a soft sigh, Wonho carefully laid himself on the smaller and started to at his fur, as if it was second nature. As if it had been something they did for months, allowing him to feel comfortable with the other without even knowing his name. Any other time, he'd be more cautious but.. something about this scent made him feel at home. It was then he remembered a little of his childhood.. how his mother always caught him playing with rogue wolf pups in the forest. Yet those were a dime a dozen, and normally left as soon as he was found with him. This was different.. finally, after a bit of grooming Wonho pressed his nose into the beta's neck to inhale his scent deeply. 'Name.' Was all he said through the link, knowing it wouldn't help his memory. Yet it might make things a little less awkward when they came down from their high of nostalgia.

@✾ αα。Wonho () why is the idea of that play position so cute.... alsjdlajsldas also, what colour is Wonho? And can wolves communicate here with their minds like they could in Lunae?

It wasn't every day that an alpha had such a good reaction towards Yosuke, and an alpha from another pack no less. While he wasn't technically on his territory or any others, the boundaries always caused some tension between packs, so he'd learned the hard way. But everything about this alpha was the opposite of what Yosuke had come to expect. Rather, whoever this man was, with the smell of his childhood clinging to his fur, he was openly approaching him with a purpose of friendliness, further confirmed by the playful nip he received on his ruffled fur, which had him tense slightly in surprise. This definitely wasn't what he was used to and while he couldn't remember exactly who the other was, he knew that they had done this before. Much further back in time when they'd both been small enough to be crushed by the paws of alphas and betas their age now. The other was so large, but seeing him with his chest pressed to the terrain had Yosuke almost... Amused. His own tail started wagging as he lowered his chest slightly, stalking the other male. He waited till he was just close enough before he pounced, feeling like a pup again as they rolled away from the cliff edge and deeper into the sparse forest and plains, tousling. For a brief second he had the alpha pinned though he knew that if the other wanted to he could easily throw him off. As much as they were playing though, Yosuke didn't want the other to think him weak. It was a complex of his, one could say. A beta with an alpha attitude, which is why he pissed off so many people in his pack. Yet he felt like here the other wouldn't mind if he playfully challenged his authority. And well... If he did... Let him be bit, he thought indignantly, letting an excitable growl rumble non-threateningly from his chest.

@☠。Sugino Yosuke His bright blue eyes looked the other wolf over for a moment before finally something clicked. While he still didn't quite know when they had seen each other, they had a past. With his head lowered towards the ground, he started into inch forward. Quick movements could cause altercations, but his tail was up and ears were forward. Basic knowledge that he was focused, but was leaning more towards a playful altercation. In fact, the closer he got the less he understood. It wasn't until he was close enough to actually touch the other wolf that his tail started to wag, out of instinct. Wonho tilted his head to the side as he walked closer, eyes glued to the other wolf to ensure that if he was attacked that he could defend himself easily. Once close enough, he moved to press his muzzle against the smaller male's side to inhale his scent. While there were traces of the other pack behind it, all that he could really think of was being a pup and running around. A soft huff escaped him as his brain continued to try and place where the scent came from, but for now he decided to play. So with a gentle nip to the other's fur, Wonho bounced back in order to get in a playful position that had his chest lowered to the ground while his tail wagged in the air cautiously.

@✾ αα。Wonho Yosuke was probably braver than he should have been. When an alpha told you to stay put, usually you obeyed. And when an alpha came running at you after such a command, there should at least have been a fight or flight instinct that flared up in him. Especially when he could identify that he indeed was not of his own pack. Not like the other packs intimidated him normally. There'd been more than one time where he'd gotten a beating because of being too brave, and there were scars to prove it. Those who were brave enough to approach him at least. And maybe it would have been better had he run off when the other called to him, but that scent of his past kept him rooted. As the alpha jogged up the hill, Yosuke had his arms stretching over his head, stifling a yawn. That had been a good nap while it lasted. Before they could even exchange one or more human words at this close proximity the other was stripping and shifting, his large wolf form much larger than Yosuke's could ever be. "Well, if that's how you want to start it," he teased with an eye smile, taking his time to slip his cardigan off, following it with the shirt and pants he'd left the house in that day. His hair had pieces of grass stuck into its ruffled mess, a consequence of sleeping on the cliff side. As he shifted into his wolf form, his grey-white fur was just as tousled as his hair, and he shook himself out to try and get it flattened out a little, all the while acting as if the other's presence was hardly phasing him despite his own curiosity trying to lunge him forward to get a better smell.

@☠。Sugino Yosuke Although the wind was against him in getting a better chance to understand the other's scent. "Get.. get down here!" Was all he could manage to say. His mind was too busy racing to figure out where the hell that scent came from. He spun in a small circle, looking around for anyone else but no.. it as just him and the beta. Brows furrowed, he decided that he'd go around if the cheeky little wouldn't come down. "Stay, just stay there!" He called out before running towards the path at full speed. It was almost impossible to find something from his past, and this guy.. this guy might be a key to it. It took all but five minutes for him to make his way to the cliff and as he stepped forward he realized his mistake. There was no way to recognize this guy, nor could his brain even tell him what age they met. All he knew... was that he was familiar. Panting softly, Wonho stepped closer but made sure his movements were slow just in case the other wanted to run. It would take less than second for his pants to be off and his body to shift into his large wolf form.

@✾ αα。Wonho Usually no one ever directly addressed Yosuke. The rumours usually kept that from happening. Like he was cursed. Or a sorceror. Or something ridiculous like that. So when the shout came up to him from down at the bottom of the cliff, he ignored it at first. But when the wind drifted up and brought more than the smell of fish and salt water with it, he stirred. He waited for another breeze, so he could figure out what it was he was smelling. It was like his infancy was coming back to him all in one sniff. That warm, almost musky smell, that reminded him of curling up together in the winter months to keep warm. With his brows furrowed he lifted himself up into a sitting position, gazing down the cliff side towards the beach where he saw a man outlined all tiny on the sand. "Hey you yourself!" he shouted back with a grin, raising a hand to mock salute. Who was this man? Even from here Yosuke could feel the power lurking beneath. That bare chest had muscles in it, and he could sense a shift within him that called to his beta instincts that made him believe the other to be an alpha. "Can I help you with anything? Are you lost?"

@☠。Sugino Yosuke Things has been so intense the past few days, it really wasn't a surprise that Wonho was out jogging again. In his mind, he needed to be prepared for a battle at any moment. If he wasn't lifting weights, he was running. Stamina was the most important thing in a battle. If you couldn't use your strength, being agile and allowing your opponent to tire himself out was the next goal. Breathing heavily, he decided a run to the beach would be the most enjoyable trail to go especially since it overlooked a cliff that had caught his eye earlier. Yet as he got closer and closer, his nose picked up a scent that reminded him of being a pup. It was weird... there hadn't been anything to remind him of his upbringing for years in these forests..why now? As he got closer, his average paced jog turned into a slow walk just to be cautious. Once finally in view of the actual cliff, he felt his chest puff up ever so slightly as he noticed someone resting. "Hey.. you!" He called out while getting closer, hoping he'd have some sort of answer for the familiar smell.

@✾ αα。Wonho () wasn't sure which room to choose from so I winged it xD

The cliff was a place Yosuke liked to hang out at. It lay just on the edge of Primal's border, shared with Butterfly, and the scents of the sea rushed in with every breeze. It was always just a little cooler up here, and that's what he loved about. That and the solitude. Being so high up made him feel like he could achieve things that he normally couldn't lower down. Which was a silly concept in and of itself, but one he loved nevertheless. Recently he'd been coming up here more and more often to catch that ocean breeze. Occasionally he'd pick up some herbs that he could use to experiment with salves. They would never let him become a real gamma in his pack, and they definitely wouldn't let him lead his own group, so he had to compromise somewhere. Yosuke wasn't meant to work in groups anyway. Or so he was convinced. Laying on his back in the grassy field, his feet hanging off the side of the cliff overlooking the water, he was more assured that a loner's life was his calling. That was the great mystery of his existence anyway, wasn't it?

() Wowzers this was lame TT I'm sorry I'm so rusty
