Small Steps

Plague watched a gamut of emotions flicker across Rava's delicate features and he fully expected her to deny his request. It was a massive thing to ask of someone that wasn't without its risks and most certainly wouldn't be an easy thing to do. There would be a lot of pain and discomfort ahead of her if she agreed on top of however she might feel about actually making these children with them so no matter how close she was to them he wouldn't have been surprised or even disappointed if she had said no. What he hadn't been expecting was for her to look at him with a sweet, softened expression and for the first words out of her mouth to not be a denial.

He listened with his ears perked forward, hanging on her nervous words as she explained how she was frightened, but that she had been thinking about it since he first mentioned it and how someone like him deserved a family. Maybe she didn't know exactly how much that comment meant to him, but it made emotion swell in his chest and tears begin to well up in his eyes. For so long he thought that his decision to love Void had made him unfit for the family and children he craved. He thought that perhaps he had forfeited that chance by marrying the love of his life. It was one thing to hear Venom say these kinds of things. She was his sister, of course she would want to see him as a father and wanted him to be happy. For Rava to only know him through their daily interactions and from him being his true self in saving her... It meant a lot.

Then Rava gave him the greatest gift she could have possibly offered him. With tears spilling from her pretty silver eyes she committed to bearing his children and for a moment his mind reeled as he tried to process the words she just told him. I will bear your children, Plague. It was words he had resigned himself to never hearing, but here she was, this sweet, golden hearted woman that was allowing him to live out his dream. He and Void could be fathers and it was all thanks to this gem of a wolf. As his mind caught up with the present a huge, overjoyed smile pulled across his lips and a giddy laugh escaped him as tears of his own spilled over onto his cheeks. He was typically pretty reserved when it came to physical affections with Rava, but he just couldn't help himself. He reached a foreleg forward and pulled Rava into a tight embrace, tears of joy in his eyes as pressed his face into her cloak. "Thank you, Rava... Thank you, thank you, thank you! This... I'll never be able to repay you for this. This means more to me than you'll ever know."
