Today's Another Day

If Glacier was as big as Ren remembered, Ren could believe every word Voltage said. The man was massive... and to be honest he had to giggle at the picture of him sitting on Glacier's back. He wasn't quite sure he was that tiny anymore. He remembered wanting to reach Glacier's size; he knew he wouldn't - he was smaller than his sister, who he didn't think was anywhere near Voltage's brother's height. Nevermind the fact that the boy was shorter than his sister, and Zephyra at that. Of course, Kait and Nixie were... munchkins compared to him and Zeph; they could walk right under them.

And he got side-tracked. Oops. Still, he heard all of the man's words - including the unspoken message of my business that was so gently delivered, simply by not touching on the subject. The boy would let it slide, of course; he did not know the king as well he did his won mother, and he certainly wasn't going to pry into the mind of the neighboring pack's ruler. Well, not most of the time.

He nodded again to Voltage's singing, chuckling softly. Yes, he was turning one... yes, Voltage was quite a bit older than him. "Fish? I've never had fish..." he confessed, head tilting at the yellow king. Okay, maybe he'll pick the brain just little bit... because who'd like fish? How would one even catch a fish? They were so fast in the water, after all... It seemed a bit odd. "Also, why a party in spring? Because it's your birthday, or is it because it's the start of new life?" He had once been told both - he remembered, vaguely, his mother being slightly religious, and she said spring was when the dead things in winter grew back, when they lived again. Trees would come back, and flowers too, and a lot more than he remembered seeing. It was all very exciting, and it would have Ren shifting on his paws in anticipation.
