* ShukuWolf returns her attention to the Alpha's, lowering herself before them... may I have a moment of your time with a request?
* Hunter^ nodsn
* SilverWlf perks his ears to ShukuWolf and nods
* NevaPaws sits beside her mate, watching her home protectively
* ShukuWolf remains low awaiting Silver's attention and permission as well
<SilverWlf> * SilverWlf perks his ears to ShukuWolf and nods
* ShukuWolf rises but not higher then the Alpha's and begins
* NevaPaws perks an ear as she lays her head on her paws
<ShukuWolf> Long ago, while Neva was Alpha of the SweetMystics, we conversed muchly and we developed mutual respect for each other as Alpha's. 
<ShukuWolf> Tho for a while, I was still here periodically after both of yourselves became the Alpha's of the pack, and again after Silver was by 
himself during Hunter's recovery, it has been a long time since I have spent any real time here. 
* SilverWlf listens
<ShukuWolf> Given this, I do not feel it is justified that I should have the privillage of Status as a Respected Honored Visitor and humbly request to 
no longer be given the sign of such with either an @ or a + as I feel that needs to be earned with both of you as well. 
<ShukuWolf> I understand that the decision has been made to + all Alpha's, however, for me, I prefer to earn that thru action, not just because I hold 
the rank and title of Alpha of another pack.
* Hunter^ nods
<ShukuWolf> Nor for the fact that I am the mother of an Elder of your pack.
<ShukuWolf> Respect has to be earned, and I prefer to earn mine. As I have not shown that here in some time, I feel it is best for all if I 'step down'
 from what I was previously given by NevaPaws. A rank or privillage should be earned, and once earned, continued and when that can not be done, for the 
betterment of the Pack as a whole, please grant me my request.
* ShukuWolf again drops down awaiting the Alpha's decisions.
* Sosha falls asleep
* Hunter^ nods to Shuku, we respect your request
* ShukuWolf smiles knowing pups sleep alot and is not surprised to see him do so
* SilverWlf looks to Hunter and nods....
* Hunter^ nuzzles Sosha, goodnight
* ShukuWolf moves forward and nuzzles each of the Alpha's for their understanding and concurance with her request
* Hunter^ nuzzles back
* SilverWlf noses and licks Shuku
*** ShukuWolf sets mode: -o ShukuWolf
* NevaPaws twitches her nose slightly, a very noble act in her eyes.
* ShukuWolf moves back to settle beside her daughter and son
* NevaPaws nuzzles her mother softly, understanding
