Taking It In

Faria assured him that Caia would come around, and he dearly hoped she was right. He didn't want the girls to grow up without knowing their aunt! Also he knew she'd do anything to protect them, even more so in his absence. He just wanted to talk to her like they used to, back when they were both a little more numb to the world. He sighed and looked skyward. "Oh well, we'll see!" Mithras blew out a breath, as if winded by worrying about his sister. Only a moment passed before he began to feel awkward, and he hurried to fill the silence. "Wanna play a game?" He didn't bother waiting for her reply. "What kind of mates do you think the girls will find?" He was curious to find out what she thought (and worried as any dad might be). Well, that train of thought led him to keeping potential suitors far, far away. He wondered absently if he'd be able to train a bear. Oh, or a passel of boar to guard his borders? Wouldn't that be cool!

He pulled himself out of his thoughts so that he'd actually be able to hear her if and when she replied. He imagined the odds of her finding a vibrant mate her slim, but what else would that leave them? Browns and greys and blacks? Hmpf. They might have to find something to do about that. Mithras wasn't much to care for bloodline, but what would they look like? It was certainly food for thought!
