[Pack-leader] has been activated!
Clover’s unique magic allows for her to accept willing participants into her pack! Like a family, pack-members form a true bond. Their genuine thoughts intermittently bleed through to one another, and pack-members find each other much easier to understand. Additionally, their Perception increases, as they become more aware of their surroundings with their newfound senses. Members also feel instinctively drawn to wolf-like activities, such as howling in excitement, or growling at danger.

As pack-leader, Clover’s words carry some authority! Members are naturally inclined to follow any (reasonable) instructions she gives. Members also become hesitant to perform actions considered (by Clover) to be un-wolflike! These include being mean, betraying the pack, or lying! At any point in time, members can decide to leave the pack and return to being a lone wolf once more. However, in order to rejoin, they have to receive a new pair of ears from their leader!

When the happy excitement finally settles, the three girls are holding hands in a circle, out of breath. Samantha can’t help but smile a little. For some reason… she felt accepted. Like she really belonged. Her ears twitch once more. The world also seemed so much clearer, all the noises and scents and sights becoming sharper in her mind. She was almost overcome by an urge to howl.

“We should celebrate!!!” Clover is overcome with blissful joy. What did pack-mates do for fun together?!?!

The corner of Lorene’s mouth is still turned up in bemusement as she watches the two girls.

Hermione simply sighs, a hand massaging her temple as she listens to the phone, wondering what she should do.

>Where to?!
