Nova

Well, it looked like it was once more into the breech, as it were. "Oh, it doesn't really matter if I think it is worth a shot," Nova started, getting his claws into the dirt, "because frankly, we would still be at each others throats if we were doing what I thought was right."

He had realized the floor was dirt long ago, after all, he had been laying down in it while waiting to ambush the others. But he hadn't expected it to be any deeper than a few centimeters, perhaps with a layer of stone underneath it. But lo and behold, the deeper his own paw went into the earth, it always made contact with the soft clay that covered the cave floor. Still not any reason to believe that there was an under-underground lake somewhere to find. Even if there was, there was no telling if it actually came up in a spring somewhere. He knew he was thinking rationally, but he also realized that thinking that way tended to make you a downer, so he decided to keep his thoughts to himself. After all, he was sure that everyone would get to the same conclusion eventually.

Tiberius

Tiberius was amazed at how jovial Feathers had become just moments after she seemed to be in the depths of sorrow. Looking at the odd plant that sprouted near her, he decided that there really wasn't a big deal about it. So she made a plant grow. So could any wolf with the right heritage. Perhaps he was being a bit envious that she was mastering her elemental gifts faster than he was, but he wouldn't be a pup if he wasn't a little jealous every now and again.

He did find it neat how harmoniously the plant matched her fur. The leaves were the same color and shape as those marks on her flank, and the flower itself matched the young wolf's eyes. "Blossom? More like a flowa, Mr. Drais. Blossoms always bring fruit. Flowas are there justa look pretty". Tiberius stated, throwing in his pitch.
