Maliggles (Maleah + Wiggles)

Wiggles never really left the area of his pack. He liked the company, and being alone meant no one to play with! But, travelling lead to the possibility of meeting someone new, and he was out scouting anyway. The pack had heard of a large rogue group out this way, and while he could definitely smell the remains of a civilization, it was getting stale. They hadn't been around for maybe a week or two, but been around they had. The place reeked of death, which wasn't very pleasant, but maybe they just didn't know how to get rid of old bones from deer and other prey very well. Maybe they liked the smell. He snickered at the thought. If they did, they must smell something awful themselves!

It was chilly out, the air crisp against his nose, but his thick arctic fur protected him from the wind. The cream color of his fur would help him blend in well to the snow, but it had yet to fall, the leaves in their process of changing colors and falling off the trees they resided on, while the pines remained the same. It was a truly beautiful night, even he could see that. He stopped to admire the scenery, the moonlight peeking through the trees and making the snow sparkle. He took some more steps forward happily, finding a small clearing, and another wolf.

He immediately stopped, his ears shoving forwards, head tilting as he assessed the stranger in front of him. It was a female. Was she a friend or a foe? He supposed he would just have to find out! Maybe she was just shy and that was why she hadn't spoken and wasn't approaching. He would show he had no ill-intentions first, and hopefully she would return the hospitality.

Splaying his front paws in front of him in his awkward bow that was halfway between that and a play stance, dipping his head to her. His tail gave a few friendly wags.

"Good evening! My name is Wiggles! I don't mean any harm at all! I hope you don't, either! We can be friends if you want. I'm from a pack a little ways away from here, a couple miles maybe. I'm just doing some scouting with a bit of roaming and having fun."

Maleah

She looked a bit frazzled, and out of breath, like she had been running from something, or someone. He didn't see or smell anyone else around. Maybe she was paranoid? Whatever, she wasn't growling at him. In fact, with his introduction, she seemed to relax extremely tense muscles and a small smile split her features. The female revealed that she was Maleah, the female he had been secretly communicating with without his pack knowing. It was so fun! He felt like he had his own little secret life right now, and the thought had his front paws tapping with excitement. He had no idea what he would get out of this arrangement, but he was already glad he had decided to meet up with her. A new friend was always worth the effort. A mate would be even greater, but with Wiggles' personality and general goofiness he had given up the idea of a female wanting to get serious with him a long time ago. Along with his OCD, the way he had to count each tap of his feet, and if he was uneven on either side he had to start it all over again until he got it right, or how he had to chase his tail if it wagged too hard and he caught sight of it, many wolves of the opposite sex didn't find it worth their time to court with a male who could pass on such genes to their litter.

She wanted to have fun with him. Alright, he was good at that! He loved having fun and could always find something to play with. It was a sort of specialty of his. The way her eyes searched his face had him inspecting her own. She was very scarred, and chunks of both ears were missing; she was almost nothing like her profile picture, except the same eyes and fur. No matter. She could have been in some bad accident or maybe she was attacked one day or something. Either way, her looks didn't change her personality.

He began to jump up and down impatiently. "Ooh! Ooh! I'm the best at having fun! We could play tag, or hide 'n seek! Sometimes, at night, I like to sneak around and look for bears sleeping in caves. It's really funny when you scare them and then run away! You just have to be really careful, because if you're too slow they can catch up real fast when they're angry." His fun with bears was his own personal dangerous spin on cow tipping, something he wouldn't know about because he doesn't even know what a cow is.
