"They said he came from the wrong side of town..."

Well, as some of you may have well noticed, Kiba is not the fluffy bundle of love Toboe is. This is because Kiba is and is not the most WOLF of the WR crew. The is and is not may be where things get confusing. Thus, I shall set out to explain the dysfunctional nature of the WR "pack" and Kiba's role as a "leader". This is less an essay on Kiba

Is this post spoiler free? Should I skip it? I've gotten up to, uh, episode 21.

Actually maybe I can white them out or something since there's only a line or two.

You don't have to go so far! I'll probably finish sometime this weekend anyways and come back and read this.

[paradisecalls]

Yeah, but I should be careful for everyone else. I usually remember these things. The backstories are kinda special but the end is in a class by itself so I should be really careful with that.

YES TO EVERYTHING

esp. about Kiba being lonely messiah and the whole pack not being completely together, to me it's always been like "you wanna come with? cool. you wanna leave? that's cool too. do whatever."

Tsume is totally the angry mother to the distant, business-minded father that is Kiba amirite.

Oh you messed up puppies :C BUT WE LOVE YOU FOR YOUR PROBLEMS sob

pst are you gonna write Blue? :O SHE'S A BUNDLE OF SPECIAL ALL BY HERSELF wow she's gonna need her own full length essay. JUST WONDERIN' cuz I love essays in general and I really loved yours ♥

[paradisecalls]

Picturing Tsume as a bitchy mamawolf totally just cracked me up. Now I'm going to have to write domestic crack between him and Kiba.

As for Blue, Floor already wrote her own amazing essay on her. Blue is also not quite pack, being half and half so the laws of the wolf world are tougher to apply to her. Blue is very White Fang in that aspect, even more than Kiba.

Which means its your turn, WRITE ABOUT HIGE.

[bitchesb4bros]

HAHA YES Mama Tsume, Papa Kiba, Sonny Toboe and... would that be Uncle Hige, or Big Brother? Or Cousin? He'd be Uncle huh.

Oooh yeah that's true. Blue pretty much is... Toboe, with existential/identity problems. Have they bonded over squeaky toys and beefy bones yet?

*FLAIL* I-I want to! There's just so much yet so little that's really there so I have to speculate a bunch and... @_@
