Romeo, Romeo, where art thou?
Romeo, this fall-furred male from lands of yonder, is a wolf who yearns deeply for love but has no understanding of it. For moons he was taught as a pup that love comes slow, and wins over all. But he wants it now, dammit! And he’ll fall asleep each night to the idea of it, imagining some doe-eyed lady or a strong, confident brute to whisk (or be whisked) away by yours truly.
It does not help that everyone in this pack seemed to have something going on but him. Spice and Pumpkin? Together. Jay and Bellona? Together! Even the pups have plans laid for them!
In spite of these odds, he remains hopeful. He has to!
Enough about that. Romeo came from a moor, born to a rather impressively large pack of wolves. His mother and father were forbidden love-birds, his mother the leader of a neighboring pack and his father the non-breeding male of his own. Because his father felt rather ashamed of him, there was a long time before they ever met. But when his mother finally brushed him over the border separating them, he was greeted lovingly, and given a choice: stay with his mother, and grow further into privilege, or be invited into his father’s pack as a stranger?
Being the fool that he is, Romeo chose the father that he never knew. He expected to get to know this male more, but was instead pushed aside, ignored, made to be shameful. He could never be like the other pups and proclaim his love, never tell him stories about his mother, or ask the same of him. Still, Romeo held out hope and stayed for moons. Until, eventually, he grew sick of it, and outted his father in a fit of frustration.
His father was promptly chased out by his pack leader, and Romeo was called a mistake and threatened with the same fate. Naturally he ran away with his tail tucked between his legs, and kept going until his paws grew rough and battered and his breath escaped him. Romeo’s first meeting with Spice and Pumpkin was through Robbie, tripping head-over-heels onto their figurative doorstep.
Unlike his former friends and family, he feels safe here. Accepted. He has no secrets to hide, and can talk as openly as he wishes to. And while he wishes for love, he has no desire to father pups of his own, too heavily scarred by the treatment his own gave to him. So instead, he has become more of a friend to the pups of his friends rather than a viable role model. They love his stories, too!
Romeo is closest to his best friend Robbie, who he thinks of as an older brother. As for his leaders, Spice and Pumpkin, he is on amiable terms with them; and does desperately long for their approval, for some odd, unknown reason.
