Matters of the Heart

Her family bantered, Azalea instantly starting trouble with Gael. To begin with she let it slide, pretending to ignore them. Then Collision broke in, calling Azalea the dumb dumb before scolding their daughter about not hunting. She shot Collision a look as she turned away from her son, "She's not quite grown yet, let her be." Soleil remembered being young and obedient. She knew nothing else but to be obedient, it was born into her.

Eyes followed her beautiful daughter, idly wondering what it might be like to have grown up with the outgoing nature that Azalea possessed. Her eyes found Collision again and she shook the thoughts away. Things come and gone were hardly worth wondering over when her life was already filled with so many joys.

Her tail rose, waving happily as Guinevere came forth to join them. The pup questioned if she could eat the food, then realized she had company in the form of elder siblings. Jumping from one thing to the next little Guin found herself at her father's feet attempting to sneak back to sleep. Soleil "woofed" to Guin. She didn't need to nap. "Eat up, we'll take you all down to the waters today," Soleil's heart dropped and her eyes flit to Collision. She knew there was no harm in it but all she could imagine was one of two gals falling into the water.

"Look look! Im gonna make a great hunter!" Soleil beamed at her, "The pack can always use more hunters!" She really did hope that Guinevere so easily decided what she wanted to do and pursued it passionately.

"You can' hunt it if its already dead," She had seated herself again, continuing to grin at her latest achievements. Solaine had a point and Soleil was aware that Guinevere's "hunting" needed practice but it was her place as a mother to encourage her children. They both had plenty of time to learn, what they needed right now was the support to be creative and to dream.

Her moment of peace was ruined when Guinevere took off, tagging Gael as she went. "No, no, no!" Soleil ran after Guin, herding her back. "Everyone must eat, be patient my dear."
