A lonely shack in the middle of nowhere

Ylva shifts to lupus and bows her head as well to help Miguel and Ultima Ratio with the rite.

(It is my social vs your current rage, if you want to throw your own chops, feel free, I only did for ease of us, as they are static, feel free to use them or yours.
Mine: Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, (Challenge won) paper
Yours: Paper, Countered, countered, paper, Rock

That look about right?)

(Now I have no idea what, if anything, the chops did.) Artemis stands there impassively, quirking one corner of her mouth as EQ noses out the candy. As the rite concludes, she nods. "Apology accepted."

Andi's great black head drops as her body rolls to the ground, offering up her throat in her display of apology and submission.

(The chops were just to successfully enact the ritual, I think, with possibly the earlier ones being gift activations.)

Steelheart bends down to pick up the offered figurine, and when he rises he nods and echoes his alpha, "Apology accepted."

(Figurines are of foxes in different positions... except Artemis'. Hers is a fox curled around two kits)

(TPO Steelheart is correct)

(Sorry, crazy night).

Asya would shift to lupus when Andi does, whining softly on her belly until the apology was accepted.Her ears lay back as she does so.

"Your apology was delivered with grace and eloquence. This matter is closed, let there be no bad blood between Ultima Ratio and the Troubleshooters." Artemis pockets the candy and the figurine, and looks toward the door. "Congratulations on the new pack. I can do the rite for anyone who'd like it tomorrow night in the Heart. Thanks for the..." She looks around the shack with a wary eye. "...hospitality." She casts a look over to her pack and turns to leave.

*Nods and gestures to everyone inside to follow Artemis' lead.*

Asya's ears perk up at Artemis' pronouncement and she bows her head to state that she understands. She speaks in the high tongue, "Thank you. Artemis-rhya. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow." She leaves with the others.
