Diving off the deep end

Casso let her take as long as she wanted to think over his question. He would never rush her though anything - especially not something as life altering as this. He wasn't really sure what he hoped her answer would be. If she didn't want to have a family then that would solve his moral quandary for him. He wouldn't have to debate whether his own selfish desires were worth risking the futures of his children. If she did want to have pups... well, then he would have to decide what was more important for them. Was it more important to fulfill their desire to have a family or is it more important to stop the cycle that his ancestors began? He still didn't have an answer for himself when Yurei spoke and gave her answer. It didn't have the finality that he had hoped for and it seemed like she was just as unsure as he was on the subject. It wasn't something that they needed to decide on today, but it was something that was going to linger on his mind for a while.

"I'm not sure yet," he admitted with a soft sigh after a beat of silence. He didn't want to burden her with his own worries and concerns, but he supposed that was part of being in a relationship. "I would love to have a family with you, but I just don't know if I could live with myself if I saw our children struggle like I have. My issues are something that can be passed through the generations so if I ended up passing along my issues to our sons..." His voice trailed off and he glanced away from her to look out over the railing of the ship with a sigh. "I don't want to hold us back from doing anything we want to do together. I just have to be aware of the consequences."

After a moment of thoughtful silence he brought his eyes back to hers and he pulled a small smile onto his lips. His paw lifted to her cheek, gently brushing her soft, pale fur. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring down our happy moment, my love. It's just something that was lingering on my mind and I wanted to see what you thought." He placed another gentle kiss at the end of her muzzle and the affection made his smile widen a bit more genuinely, the corner of his mouth even pulling up into a daring smirk. "I just wondered... If I wanted to have all of you... would we be ready for what could come of it?" He had never been with anyone in that way, but now that he had someone to call his own he was incredibly tempted to do just that. It was a battle of all is different desires and insecurities and wants and doubts that made him hesitate even though he wanted nothing more than to just completely cover her from head to toe with every ounce of love he could muster.
