Plague was still riding the high of the challenge. It had been the tipping point for his confidence and the nudge he needed to fully throw himself back into the pack and his family. Now that he felt like he could take a step back from the constant training he had been doing to prepare for the fight, it gave him enough space in his mind to think about other things. To think about the future. He had begun planning for the eventual moment when he would get to bring Void home and had started scouting out a place where they could build their den together. It gave him a new project that he worked on between his pack duties and had quickly become his new favorite hobby. That's what he had been doing when he heard his sister's howl from the shrine, causing him to turn his attention away from his planning to listen. The way he viewed the lessons from their father and the beliefs of their family as a whole were... complicated. He wasn't sure if he was in a place to even observe this sort of lesson, but he thought about his sisters and how desperately he wanted to stay in their lives and knew he had to join them. Being able to see the pups again was certainly a driving factor in the decision as well. He had never really considered what it would be like to be an uncle until he began spending time with Venom's children and now it was one of his favorite parts of himself. Loving, protecting, and training these pups was one of his new joys. He found his way to the shrine and he offered Toxicity a small bow of his head before he went to sit next to Venom, leaning gently into her side. Being here with them again brought back so many memories and even though he wasn't certain how he felt about those memories he could put that aside to be here with them. He tried to catch Shuriken's gaze, giving his niece a little grin. He promised that he would never have favorites among his nieces and nephews, but he still secretly did. |
