Another New Beginning…ICly, at least.
Hello, everyone! It’s Taelin here, Alpha Male of Kumori!
…

…

(there’s a long pause of confusion right here, if nobody could figure that out.)
…
…
…
You ask: SINCE WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?!
Well, I’m glad you asked! It’s really a long story. But though it’s long, it’s one of the happiest and most exciting stories that I could tell right now. I can tell you right now that it’s a very comfortable experience, and also quite enjoyable. But I can explain all that in time…I really should begin at the very beginning. Because…isn’t that where new beginnings begin? In the beginning? *grunts* Okay, sorry for that. Let’s get to it, shall we?!
I can’t exactly remember correctly. That fact shouldn’t shock anyone…lol. But I do believe I’ve posted a few topics on this blog about CelestialShadows. (The proof of that was my old post…New Alias. Jasper to Jairus. I remember that! …….. Okay, you got me. I might have accidentally saw it on my own blog before I began writing this….O.o)
Pop quiz! Who remembers Tamaska? Just me? Oh…gee, you all make this blogging such a lovely experience! Well, for all of you who don’t remember her, she was Jairus’ mate back in CS, and the two of them had a bazillion kids. For those of you who I know personally I’m going to shout this at you… IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK! O.o
(another akward silence)
Well, some unfortunate events occurred(I think) while I was off focusing on my school and my part-time job, and CelestialShadows ceased to be an existing pack. When this happened, I wasn’t entirely determined to go back to the system I was used to by then. A pack disbanned, and another one quite similar to the old one arose. I began to think….hey, what if I started my own pack? I have the gist of what goes on…I think I can handle it. Now…I don’t EXACTLY recall how this next affair occurred, but Tamaska and I began to discuss that we both didn’t want to re-join the members that were from CelestialShadows, but instead wanted to go it alone and begin our own packs. Then…Tamaska asked me to be her Alpha Male in her new pack! And yes, I say “her” pack, simply because she has a whole lot more experience being an Alpha than I have. She’s been at wolf RP for something like 15 years. She’s like…one of the pioneers! And, being such a good friend to me(and being brave to hang around me for as long as she has), I thought it would be a woderful idea to join her!
And so, we created new names. (New-ish in my case). She took the name Iris, and I took the name Taelin. They sound pretty cute together, don’t they? Iris and Taelin? *hears the crickets* I thought so too! Oh. And Iris, if you’re reading this…it’s simply because nobody actually reads my blogs. That’s where the crickets come in ^^. They are my audience! At least something cares….*whimpers*. LOL. Sorry. I’m all better now.
I predict that this post is going to be long…so, beware O.o
Even since Iris and I began this new pack, late in the first semester of my schooling…uhh, let me check the date. November 28th…wow, I litterally checked it a second before I wrote that here, and I was wrong…OKAY! November 19th, 2008! Yes! I’m right!
We began with Iris and I, and Amaroq and AmberWolf as Betas. Iris, Amaroq and Amber go WAAAAY back. So, I’m a little oddball in that department. But that’s a common feeling for me since…ever!
Several members from DreamWalkers(the reborn CelestialShadows pack, originally lead only by Zentaro*Alora*, but now also led by Shi’ake, who was Alpha in CS. I forget which name she used…O.o) Please don’t kill me if I don’t remember you all… There’s Jaedyn, who was apparently in the hospital due to a car accident. We didn’t even know! We’re glad you’re back, buddy! He’s playing his old pup character from EmeraldMysts. I won’t go that far back in explaining my history…so if you want to know, just ask!
Sarita and SilverEye migrated over from DreamWalkers. And I’m very glad the did! They are AWESOME friends! I like to believe Sarita and I are close as friends. I feel like I can trust her with talking to her when I’m down. It helps a lot, Sarita ^^
Most recently, MoonWeaver was going to join us. She was “let go” from DreamWalkers…though, she can’t technically join us until she and Shi’ake are able to mend their relationship and be able to tolerate one another. I’ll get to reasons behind that later.
Oh! I can’t forget about little Blitzie! That would make Taelin a VERY horrible father! Blitz was one of Tamaska and Jairus’ pups from CelestialShadows, and he has been very loyal to us from the very beginning. Blitz is currently(hint hint *More details about that later, too =P* ) the only pup to Iris and Taelin. All the other children died in childbirth or something. We never really went into details about that…from what I can remember.
There’s also Shasta, from our pack in EmeraldMysts. She has always been an avid roleplayer, and very active in the packs that I’ve been in with her. It’s a great honor to have her as part of our family!
And there have been more. Nicoh was accepted as an assessment, though was banished from the pack due to lack of respect to Iris.
Lavos had been accepted as a member of the pack at our first packmeeting, held a month ago, as Sentinal. He has just recently began courting(dating IC-ly) with Aphrodite, one of Iris’ alternate characters. In this pack, we are allowed to have a total of three characters, though only one can accept rank in the pack. They’re cute together =D
Symfora had entered assessment when we began. She’s been quite wonderful to the pack! She originally decided to go off and start a pack of her own after becoming assessment, but I guess it didn’t end up working out. She now gave an application to DreamWalkers, so she’ll be staying with them. Which is good! =D She still visits often, and has saved Taelin from a lot of pain. Thanks Symmie!
Kala and Greighwolf have made assessment to the pack…but we haven’t seen either of them in a long time, so who knows what’s up there.
Navaris, who was originally part of a four-member pack, decided to resign from his old pack and join us in Kumori. He is courting Shasta now, which I find totally adorable! He will be made an assessment at our next pack, along with Jezabell, his daughter! Actually, Shasta and Navaris adopted her. But still!
Aaand….I think that’s all! O.o If there’s anyone I missed out, please, feel free to come at me with murderous intent. Unless you actually plan to murder me. Then…please don’t O.o
Iiiin other news!(Yes, there’s still more!)
There has been a whee little bit of drama in the pack so far, but I believe we are handling ourselves quite well with it. This goes back to what I said about MoonWeaver a little earlier. Like I said, she was banished from DreamWalkers. Only 3 members of the entire pack were interested in letting her stay. The drama between them hasn’t let up since then, specifically with Weaver and Shiake. They’d begun a blog war between them… Yea. Well, the condition for Weaver’s acceptance to Kumori was if things settled between the two. It didn’t…so, until they can mend their relationship, she can’t be accepted as a member.
And now…onto a little more positive news! BEBEHS! (hehe)
That’s right! Babies have been born into Kumori!
AmberWolf has given birth several weeks ago to four adorable little puppies, courtesy of Amaroq’s….*can’t finish scentence, please bare with me.*
We welcome Akasma, Tikanni, Taska and Akeria into the world! Akasma is played by Iris. Tikanni is played by Blitz. Taska is played be me(I’m playing a CHICK!) and Akeria is played by Shasta. Congradulations to Amaroq and Amber!
Now…further on the subject of bebehs is… *faints*
For those of you who don’t know, the months of January to March is the breeding season for wolves. The fact that Amber and Amaroq’s pups are already born proves that they have absolutely no sense of self control. JUST KIDDING! But yes, they certainly did “it” earlier than most wolves would.
Buuut, Iris and Taelin have been feeling a need for another litter….! *Squeeeel!!* Uhhh…*glances around* That’s…umm…what Iris would do. Yes. Totally.
The day that the deed is done has yet to come. But that’s okay…there’s still about 2 months before the season passes! And when they’re born…that’ll mean Brandon has had over 10 kids before reaching 20 years of age? Yea, sounds about right. In a wrong sort of way.
Well, now that that akward moment is over, we can move on to another subject! By the way, I’m going to be at 1500 words by the end of this scentence. Amazing, huh? I thought so too! Who ever knew so much randomness could come from Taelin’s mind? Not me!
Tomorrow is going to be a BIG day for Kumori! We’ll be holding the biggest meeting we have had yet, and I’ve seen the schedule. And…I must say, WOW! It’ll be long! But that’s good! A long meeting means that a lot of activity has been occurring in the pack. And who can’t be happy about that? Kumori, thus far, has been my favourite pack, and I must say, the most successful, that I have been in. It’s just amazing…how we all bond so well with one another. I’ll be posting another one of these blogs regarding how the meeting went tomorrow. No need to go over 2000 words today, right?
To tell you the truth….I think I’m out of words! Suprise! And you thought that it wasn’t possible! Glad to see I’ve proven you wrong. Well, tooteloo!
Yours truly, Taelin, Alpha Male of Kumori
Changing Alias…Jasper to Jairus
Among the many things that have changed, one is my packlife. EmeraldMysts is gone. Finito. However you say “gone” in any other language. It turs out that, while I had some trouble finding internet access, the pack sort of fell apart. Trusts had been broken, and it was time to disban, and start anew once more.
This entire thing feels a lot like de ja vu…except, unlike most of my deja vu’s, I know exactly the reason behind it. This is the exact same thing that happened when EmeraldMysts was formed. And if that is any indication, this pack is going to be wonderful! All the packs formed have gradually gotten better and better over the years.
When I first got the e-mail about the disbanning of EmeraldMysts during Photography class, I was sort of depressed. For the rest of the lesson, I couldn’t pay attention. The next day, however, I managed to pop onto the new CelestialShadows channel, and was happy to be suprised with some BIG news. As in…pregnant wolfess big. Haha.
Apparently, I am the father of 8 children! And the mother is named Tamaska, played by one of my fave woofles from EmeraldMysts. She was known as DestinyRose(Rose for short), and we got along sooo well together. Originally, she was a part of another pack, and either left or the pack was disbanned before joining us in EM. We instantly hit it off, chatting in PM’s together and roleplaying together a lot.
Jokes like “What have I done?!” and “Something TOTALLY went wrong” have been coming off of my fingers a lot recently. It’s just because…I’ve never been a father before. And, with so many children! Wow. I’m totally excited. Being the father of the Alpha’s a priviledge. Plus, I’m a true part of the Council now, being appointed Gamma with Sorrow(formerly known as CrystalGarnet, I believe.)
Officially, the CelestialShadows pack opened up today, and I could be a part of that ^^ Things are still a little shaky in regards to my personal plotline…Tamaska and I have to go through that together, since we’re mates. I’ll likely be back tomorrow after work. Man. I can’t seem to get enough of roleplaying now! It’s probably not the best for my school work…but hey, I’ve got most of what I need done for next week already. I’m happy =D
Valentines…(with an awkward story)
February the 14th. Valentines day. Or, St. Valentine’s day as my calendar says it. In todays society, we consider it the day of “love”. And who knows, that just might be it. In my opinion, this is just the cutest day in the world. And for all you perverts out there, I’m NOT talking about the three-letter “s” word.
I just love seeing little kids giving out little valentines to their friends and classmates, along with adorable Hershey kisses. I used to do it all the time when I was in grade school, and it was so much fun! Of course, that little activity disappeared when I went to high school. But still, I just love the roses, heart-shaped balloons and chocolates, and whatnot. Even though I don’t ever get any of them.
Perhaps I’m a sucker for “innocent love”.
But to put my opinion in perspective, there’s also this sort of sadness I feel that comes along with this day. Because I know that it’s quite possible that people with broken relationships(divorce, becoming widowed, etc.) likely cry on this day. It’s like this thought stuck in the back of my head, and never really seems to let me forget entirely.
Well, I promised in my title that I’d tell you guys an awkward story I had related to Valentines day. And after all that rambling, you’re probably holding the knife to my throat to make me say it. Odd though…I don’t feel the blade…
Well, I believe that it was last year that it happened. It was basically my first-ever time asking anyone out. I’m an artsy kind of guy, so I decided I would draw a cute little picture of Bambi in a small square card as a valentine. Well, the time came. It was lunch time(at school), and I decided to take the card to her. We were watching a movie at the time…which really made things awkward to begin with. Well, I managed to pry her eyes from the screen and give her the card.
Unfortunately, all I received was a cold glare, and I never really saw her after that that year. Probably avoiding me or something. lol. But I got over it like…the first week. I can’t believe I did that. I felt soooooo stupid. It’s absolutely hilarious now that I think back on it.
Maybe next time I ask someone on a date, I should try to be a little more “smooth”. Ya think?
