It was hard to tell immediately if she was offended or amused at his reaction; maybe something else entirely? She'd always seemed entertained by saying things that would surprise him, especially since she was one of the few wolves that could even elicit that kind of startled reaction from him.. but this was something different. But the laugh that escaped her throat told him everything he needed to know before she had to explain: she, too, was terrified of the same ridiculous things as he was, but also excited.

She agreed with his feelings, and he let his own sort of anxious laugh leave his lips.  "I'm just afraid of ending up like my mom, honestly. What if I disappoint them?" Lark knew how petty kids could be in the first place.. and he also knew just how badly his mom had let him down, in more concrete ways, and the thought of having kids who felt that way about him made him feel nauseous with fear.  "I..." Lark almost gulped, pausing as he tried to regain his thoughts.

Telling Sparrow. Holy shit; that made a whole new world of anxiety come crashing down before him. How would she feel about this all? It was obvious she had a disdain toward Lillie, even if he didn't fully understand why. Surely she wouldn't feel the same about their children? Lark really had no idea.  "I can tell her, if you want. I can't imagine you're all that thrilled to break the news to her..." Lark shrugged, feeling oddly uncomfortable. Shouldn't having kids be something that he thought his family would be excited over? He'd envisioned this day being something celebrated, by his dad and siblings, but now only Sparrow was left.. the very wolf he thought would be least excited for.
