"I have never done a single bad thing in my life." Valentine snorted and the laughed hardily at this. He knew she was joking, but that didn't lessen how funny he thought the statement to be. Valentine tried to throw a paw over Cascade's shoulder and pull her into a side hug. Even though he knew she didn't like mushy displays of affection, he'd missed her terribly and couldn't resist. After the sting of Rhythm's absence had faded Valentine had thought that he and Cascade would spend their last years gamboling about Boreas causing trouble and taking names, and to an extent they had. But it had all ended too soon. His mirth faded as he was reminded of the world of the living and his place in it. Valentine pursed his lips and was quiet. He wished he could laugh with her, to flippantly say yes and tell her about the cute little thing that kept him warm on cold nights, but that wasn't how he was spending his retirement. Not that he was complaining. He had - they had, really - reached a point in their lives where they'd all just assumed that those who were gone would stay gone. They'd done what they could to move on and written new futures for themselves. "I haven't. And I suppose there's still time to," he was just going to assume he wasn't dead until proven otherwise, "But Rhythm probably wouldn't like that very much." He shot Cascade a sly look, eager to see 1) if she put two and two together and 2) her reaction to the knowledge that Rhythm was back. |
NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.
