(Sorry I know I promised to post but right after I get out of school I have to go to track practice then I go home and shower and eat then I tend to my gigantic pile of homework! *dies from bring waaaayy to busy*)
Ash silently sat watching the seen unfold around him. He listened as the others talked to this new werewolf, they seemed to warm up to him easily but Ash needed to get to know him more before he could trust him. Aries on the other hand was bright an welcoming, she walked up to James with a warm smile on her face, and her hazel eyes twinkling with kindness, "Hello I'm Aries, its nice to meet you." she said shaking his hand. Ash watched as Aries introduced herself and he just gave the were a curt nod and a slightly sideways glance before limping off to the lake. He washed his face and took off his mostly shredded shirt to wash and rinse his wounds. Aries watched Ash leave and shook her head before turning back to the were, "Don't worry once he warms up to you he can be a big softy and a great friend." she said with encouragement that faltered a little. She knew how stubborn as could be and how much first impressions mattered to him. (No offense to James though I just thought I could add some interesting persona clashes or something ;) )
After he was done Ash waded out to where Smoke was, "Hey, you need any help, I'm getting kinda bored sitting around waiting for something to attack us." he said with one of his half smiles.
