Surprise?

Glacier laughed softly at her easily anticipated words. Yes, he expected that of Anias. She was an independent, free spirited creature even if she was also an adorably shy one. “Well, I suppose I can compromise” he teased her, his eyes began to shimmer and glint with a mischief Anais should well know and be able to prepare for by now. “I mean, Perhaps I could let you catch your every tenth meal” he said, his voice was serious, and contemplating, even if his expression told another story. Still lying on the ground, head on her lap, he wiggled until he could move his paw and gently 'boop' her nose with a very soft pat.

Every few moments his thoughts would run full circle and he would remember afresh the awe and amazement of the knowledge he was to be a father. He shook his head, almost bewildered, and clearly over the moon. Anais would make such an amazing, such a beautiful Mother even if he still wasn't certain what kind of father he would make. “Take things at whatever pace you want to, just be prepared to be pampered” he said, his soft words humming with love.
