From Time to Time

He was growing more comfortable with the idea by the minute, though he wasn't sure if his comfort was because he was getting used to the idea of being near her or if it was because of the wonderful scent that drifted off of her. Either way, the former King wasn't as concerned with being found out - as they had already established plans to not be seen. Although, there wasn't going to be much they could do about their scents - which were bound to build up over time as they resided in such close quarters. That detail would be easy to pass of though, as they could blame it upon working together so frequently, for they both had the same title and duty now. He weaved around the trees, interested in just where they might find an abandoned fox den that they could renovate. She spoke up, saying that the idea sounded good and that he would be taking up most of the space. Gerhardt chuckled, sideswiping his amethyst gaze to note - quite possibly for the first time - how small she was. It had never occurred to him that he stood nearly a foot taller than the woman. How intriguing. So it would seem, he remarked with unfeigned surprise. Apparently looks didn't matter too much to him at all, or he would have noticed that detail sooner.

He watched as she hopped up onto a lone rock, rising in height to one that was closer to his own stature. She urged him to follow her in a particular direction and he followed immediately - relishing in not having to lead for once in his life. It was a nice change of pace, being directed instead of directing. At least this way if their search came up empty he wouldn't be to blame. A smirk crossed his lips at this thought. As if he'd ever blame Loccian for not finding a den. His earlier thought of herb storage crossed his mind again, and he decided to speak on it this time. Probably not tonight, but perhaps tomorrow we could dig a second chamber of the den where you can store your healing ingredients. It seems like it would be more convenient to have them close by in case you're called on out of the blue. He knew she probably would be called on soon enough, for his grandchildren would be on their way sometime this season. He would have to remember to check in on the new King and Queen and be sure that they were doing alright and were prepared for parenthood. Already he could feel his mood lifting as they paced, examining the terrain for signs of a den. Maybe life wouldn't be so bad after all.
