Suppers On

Killian did enjoy having a large family. It was a good way to have others to spend time with and rely on. But, there were the downsides. Drama and bad apples. The Kleins were not known for their overly positive morals but they did walk the line of neutrality for the most part. It seemed his cousin Deathbelle had a good level head but he knew Hannibal had quite a past. Some chose to walk that same line and others chose to go every which way. Though they could all agree on their love for one another and the pride for their kin. Since coming to Boreas he hadn't manny issues with integrating into the family and expected he never would now.

Odette's comment about litters made him laugh ever so slightly. The male shrugged gently, "Quite a few. I doubt they are done expanding the line or will be anytime soon." Killian did not blame anyone for wishing to reproduce. Pups were the future and the future looked bright for Ashen. He looked to Odette and raised a brow, "Do you aspire to mother any litters?" It was a curious question. As a hand maiden was she even able to have pups? What would happen if she did? Killian hated to think Odette would be unable to do so due to her social class. His eyes roamed her facial features and sussed out that such beautiful genes shouldn't be wasted on unyielding servitude.

The babe made the brute laugh once again. Falling asleep in defense class was rather humorous to him. He'd never be able to sleep when battle was in the air. Herbs though? For sure. He shook his head playfully, "We will have to fix that, if you desire that is." A toothy grin. "I am sure we can figure out a way to make fighting fun so you can learn how to protect yourself." Being at the will of another due to a lack of fighting comprehension was never a good thing. "Maybe on days we aren't working on the hen house we can train." Perhaps she wasn't interested at all...

Odette agreed with Killian's statement about Sirius and added on with the size of his brood. The slate male nodded in his own agreement. They were massive children and littered with mutations. Fangs, wings, claws, spikes, and whatever else. Killian was sure soon they could conquer Boreas and then Auester after a snack break. "It is a wonder Zee managed the litter." A shake of his head with a look of disbelief came into view.

Cheeks burned as the male figured out he leapt to conclusions. Killian truly thought they would share a den. He wouldn't have slept with her and kept distance but he really did think that was the invitation. Her hesitant words made him shift slightly and look at his own two front paws in mild shame. Killian didn't know why he felt like a pup in those moments but he did. Usually he'd be trying to snake his way into her heart by now but he was so horribly hesitant to make her uncomfortable. With an uneasy flick of his tail the male slowly moved his eyes back to her own. "Ah, yes. Of course. I totally didn't just... jump to conclusions or anything." The male laughed away his embarrassment and sat up straight again. He offered a cheeky grin, "I can deal with Dash if I don't have to walk all the way home."

Killian was glad to think about hunting in those moments. The flush in his cheeks dissipated as he listened to her words. "Huntress Odette sounds great in my opinion." He listened to her next words with a raised brow. "Yes, we should go on a hunt one day. Perhaps I can request that you can cross the border under my watch so we can get proper game?"
