Don't tell me what to do [Garth]

Garth had spent the morning spending some time with his mother before he had to go home the next day. She wanted to hear about his life and what he had been up to while he was away. She also wanted to give him more and more crap about the fact that he was getting older and he needed to find a wife and settle down. When he had enough of that conversation he left his mother and went to see some of his old friends in the area. He really didn't have many, he had been a quite person and very much different from most men his age. They liked to sleep around and use women in ways he just never had been able to do. Maybe it was the respect he had for his mother and sister that kept him from being that way and talking that way about women, but he just couldn't do it. He had no desire to make a women, or really anyone at all feel badly, or used. Garth saw it as wrong and disrespectful to the person you were doing it to.

Once he was done seeing his friends he went to the market area and looked for something that he could take home with him. Maybe a gift for Iliana, or one for his friends. After looking for a while, he found some jewels that someone was selling for a decent price. They were different then ones he saw Iliana use, so maybe they were something just from his home? He didn't really know anything at all about this kind of thing. So he bought some of them, and would give them to her to make something with. He just hoped whatever she made, she would keep for herself. Maybe he would try to make her something with it instead. Like a neckless, or something. Garth was sure he would be horrible at it too, but he had time to think about what he would do with them. He owned them now after all. When he was done at the market area, he figured it as time to head back to Yrsa's house and see what she wanted to do with the rest of the day. He wouldn't see her again until she came to do her task, so he wanted to spend some time with her.

Walking into the house he was greeted with an interesting sight. There was the normal two puppies on the ground whining and barking at him in greeting, and then there was a new one. It was on the table, and he knew right away that it was not a dog and it was a wolf pup. “Garth, look!” Yrsa said to him in excitement. “She was stuck and starving and I helped her and fed her and she followed me home. I’ve named her Anja.” she said to him next and he just looked at her for a moment. Trying to figure out the right words to say to her without making her mad at him. "That is a wolf...you know that right?" he decides to say to her first as he looks to the pup on the table."A wolf that could grow up and eat you..." he says to her next before he raises an eyebrow at her. "You are really going to keep it aren't you?" he says last before shaking his head at her. No matter what he said to her, Garth knew her mind was set on doing what she wanted to do."I don't like this...but I know you..." he adds.

Garth never really took his eyes off the wolf as he waited for his sisters answers. Even if he already knew the answers to what he had said to her without her even speaking to him. He had grown up with her and her insane love for animals. This however was a little over the top and very dangerous if you asked him. A wolf was a wild animal, and he remembered that people had been killed by them before in the past as well. He would hate if his sister was one of them. “Yes, Garth, I know she’s a wolf. And she won’t eat me! Why would she eat me after I feed her and take care of her?” was the first thing his sister said to him. Garth crossing his arms over his chest and looks at the wolf for a moment longer before he looks at his sister. “Wolves are pack animals, Garth. She didn’t have a pack, but now she does.” she says to him next and he lets out a long huff of air before nodding his head at her. "Yes I know that about them, I grew up learning about them just as you did. It doesn't make me like this anymore." he says her first.

Yrsa keeps going and keeps answering the things he is saying to her. “Of course I am,” she says when he asks if she was going to keep it. He had no idea why he asked, she named it, so the animal was now apart of his family. Weather he liked it or not. He just prayed to the gods the animal was well behaved and didn't hurt her. He would kill it if it did without a second thought. "Of course you are keeping it, I don't know why I even asked." he says to her shaking his head as he walked in closer to them all. “I didn’t really think you’d like it, to be honest. You’re a bit overprotective. I’m not sure if you’re aware,” she says to him next and he glares at her for a moment before rolling his eyes."Yeah, well thats my job as the big bad older brother. To protect, and spoil." he says with a small smirk toward her.

She tired to change the subject and it makes him smile, before he shakes his head again and looks at the wolf. “What’ve you been up to today?” she ask him. "I saw a friend and then went shopping, nothing super exciting. Not as exciting as finding a wolf and bringing it home like you did." he says to her before she speaks again. “Do you want to pet her?” she asks him next and he bits his lip for a moment before nodding his head. If it tired to attack him he could prove he was right, if not he would feel a little bit better about all this madness. "Yes I want to pet her." he says to her before walking closer and holding his hand out toward the wolf to smell. "do I just touch her, or wait until she lets me?" he asks her next as he watches the dog smell his hand.
