Asher Loves Shifting. If You Were To Ask Him What His Three Favorite Things Were, It Would Be His Baaaaaaabe,

Asher loves shifting. If you were to ask him what his three favorite things were, it would be his Baaaaaaabe, shifting, and wings/pizza (the third is actually the pack, he says the wings/pizza combinations right there with them though)

When Asher shifts he feels like he's finally able to shake off the restriction of being human. He can run as fast as he wants (outside at least...baaabe was upset last time he got zoomies in the apartment)

When he gets excited its almost like he's a puppy who hasn't grown into its paws yet. He wiggles, he rubs up against people in the pack, he gnaws on Baaabe and a few other people, he tries to hit other shifters heads with his paws, he runs into David and Milo all the time, he and Christian will vocalize together (like when actual wolves chatter and whine at eachother?), sometimes Ash will actually just make a noise that sounds like screaming, he carries the pack kids, he teaches the younger wolves in the pack how to wrestle sagely, and he lays on top of anyone close that will stay still long enough for him to. (Sam and Darlin are his favorite targets, Christian and Milo are close seconds)

Ashers wolf is also very large, and as Beta of the pack, he has the authority to make that size power. There are very few times he's needed to, though. One of the only times the other pack members have seen him like that was shortly after Darlin' came back to the pack. He and Tank had gone on a run together, on their way back, a set of vampires sent by Quinn tried to attack them. The vampires didn't last long, barely able to get a hit on either of them. Tank did take a hit though. They always do when there's a fight. What wasn't expected was how Asher reacted to them taking said hit. He had no hesitation ripping the head off of the leech trying to hurt his family, and he didn't move from his protective stance in front of them even after they shifted back. Going as far as to wrap himself around them while they waited for their mates and David to arrive, nuzzling into their uninjured side licking and nibbling at them in an attempt to sooth the pain since healing magic still isn't his strongsuit. The injuries weren't bad, just a few cuts and a solid bruise spreading up their right side, but still enough that he got scared. He only moved when his Baaabe and David made him so that Sam could have access to heal Darlin. That was what permanently cemented in everyone's mind that Asher was truly the best choice for pack Beta.

Asher let's younger members of the pack climb and ride on him when he's in both forms. When he's in wolf form and a pack meetings running late, he'll curl up near the main table and let the youngsters sleep on him. Plus, he's still close enough that he can listen to the discussion going on and give an occasional huff/snort to agree/disagree with David or whoever else is speaking

Ashers favorite thing to do is shift and lay with his mate. He loves when he can sprawl out and they just lay against him. He tucks their head under his chin and curls his legs and tail around them. Sometimes, he'll just lay between their legs with his head on their stomach or chest. His tail thumping so hard it's reverberating through the bed, or the floor, or their couch, whatever surface they're on you'll probably be able to hear the telltale thumping of a happy wolf's tail
