"Beat Destruction"

Hunkered down, Beat gave a soft chuckle as the boy rubbed himself all over. He was a cute little thing. He shared coloring with Recluse and so that was why he'd thought the boy was her little brother. The real answer shocked him though. Recluse told himself and the boy of their relationship to one another. The black and white man stilled, two-toned eyes going wide as his heart ceased to beat. This was his son? He was a father? Beat felt as though he might very well pass out, but he managed to keep it together somewhat. His mouth in a hard line, he stared at the woman before him. There were so many thoughts racing through his head but the one that managed to come to his lips was, "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" He could have been there for her and the boy. He could have helped.

Keep him? She wanted Beat to keep and raise a child? "Recluse," he rose from his crouch. "I can't raise a kid." He couldn't. He'd just barely gotten himself together. A few seasons ago he had ben a child himself, drifting through the wilderness, waiting to die. No, surely he couldn't... Ah, but what had put him in that position in the first place? The loss of his family. The man's brow furrowed, scrunching his white eye-spots together. He looked down at the tiny pup and eventually his gaze softened.

"What's his name? Is he weaned? What do I feed him?" A million questions formed, but he asked the important ones first. "Do you want to come see him?" Surely she would want to see her child, right? Gods... their child. What was he going to tell Theory? What was he going to tell Twig?
