Surprise?

As always, her concern for his family's opinion of what the two of them shared was addressed with easy confidence, and further assurances were offered to her that the news would be received well, even eagerly looked forward to. A timid smile crept back upon Anais's lips as she entertained the notion that Glacier's siblings might actually be waiting for this moment, a thought that had not once crossed her mind. Could she really have missed how tolerant and accepting they were of her, how they had grown to accept her as a part of their brother's life and, by extension, a part of theirs? And that they looked forward to the future generations they would produce? It stunned her, but at the same time relaxed some of her nerves.

The smile on her lips grew easier and more content again the longer she thought about this new revelation, but the question Glacier posed piqued at her curiosity. "Traditions?" The word was echoed with complete perplexity, having not the slightest clue what he meant. She knew of his family's tendency to sport exotic colorations, knew too that each had a defining trait about themselves that related them in some way to an element or natural feature of some sort, and that each was named according to that trait. But as for traditions? She was clueless. "No, I don't," Anais admitted softly, staring at her mate expectantly waiting for him to elaborate.
