Elli's belly had started to swell and she was starting to notice it more. It wasn't to the point where the loner woman would need to stay contained to one small area. In fact, there were many things she could still do at that point. Technically she could fight and hunt and heal still, for a few more weeks at the very least. Her eyes narrowed in concentration as she walked. She felt butterflies in her stomach or perhaps those were her future children swirling around in there, developing. She was confident that herself and Ritsuka would be magnificent parents to whatever children they raised.

You and I, we were born to die

Tiger stripes trudged through the lands with fierce look in her eyes. She loved wandering about and that particular day she had taken a habit to looking for something to do. She had a full stomach and Raas didn't want to find a wolf to spar for fear of something else coming from it. She had not found a pack that had caught her interest either. These facts concerned her a bit as she looked about. She noticed a wolf with a slightly swollen stomach walking around as well. A warm smile formed on her face. "Hello there!" The wolf called out these greetings as she closed the distance between them.

Elli turned, focusing on a figure in the distance which had made a sound. A greeting emerged and the pregnant lady turned with a smile. "Hello!" The words were called back to the other woman with a wide grin. This left her to wonder what this other lassie was like. The woman had strange markings along her tail and ears and legs. Were these by birth or something else? She would take some time in order to ponder what it was about as she approached. "I'm Elli. What is your name?" The question was simple enough in the pregnant woman's mind.
