we'll party to the end of the world

Now even Mum was sick too. Undeniably, a bit of a mummas-boy, Kuroki couldn't say he was pleased to hear the news, let alone see her all oozy and tired as he padded his way onto the scene after heading her call. The silver lining was that she didn't look as bad as she could, the sickness hadn't had time to settle in deep and with any luck it wouldn't but- sheesh. Was no wolf off limits? How come he'd managed to escape completely unscathed so far?

Stepping in close, he wagged his tail in a casual greeting, only to falter at the last minute. Instead of settling close by his family, like he felt the tug to in his chest he paced back and forth. Expression pinched, in a pretty good Hattori mock up.

"You sure this a good idea Mum? You should be resting." And then he took a proper moment to look at Kit and-oh wow, she had it bad too huh? All mushroomy and gross, like she was something rotten you'd find in the forest. "And you Kit. Look at you.What's happening to us?" He asked, though he doubted anyone knew the answer.
