Lets have a talk

The woman lay outside. She didn't like to be in a den when the weather was clear. Besides, her 'den' hadn't been built yet. The little wolf was in the process of building a stone cottage in their permanent home. She and Ila transported rocks and stones daily. The foundation was laid, but the walls would take some help. She was rather short, after all. Iolaire knew that Sirius would help her when the time came. And speaking of Sirius...

Heavy breathing forced one green and gold eye to crack. It swiveled towards his den and she watched as he removed himself from it. She kept herself close just in case he needed her. With each session, she moved closer and closer into the heart of the common area. He called her name and she responded with, "Here." She then watched as he went to wet his throat before he deposited himself on the ground beside her. She sighed as he licked her fur in the wrong direction and was straightening it with one foreleg as he told her of his progress.

Obsidian ears flicked forward as she listened to each and every word. She had seen the progress for a while, but it was good that he was finally feeling it. "I'm glad to hear. Never a doubt in my mind, big brother." She leaned her small frame against him. "Would you like to talk about it?"
