At That Age

Satira shot down Aslatiel's worries and the girl's words warmed her mother's heart. Asla placed her paw over Tira's paw, giving her head a shake. "What did I do to deserve you?" She couldn't have asked for a more thoughtful, sweet child. There wasn't a single thing about Satira that she would have wished to change. Her lovely daughter was perfect in every way. Aslatiel didn't think that she could ever love anything more than Satira and Arcturus and they reminded her of this every day.

The flop-eared girl had indeed noted the relationship between Aslatiel and Indigo and the woman accepted this with a nod. "It's a relationship that most wouldn't accept or understand." The pair of them had gone through stress and trouble their entire lives because of their love for one another. They'd both made sacrifices that they were still recovering from. "I see nothing wrong with siblings loving one another, but it's not ideal to have children together. There can be complications." Now they were finally getting to the point of this little outing.

As Satira placed her paw upon Asla's, the woman laughed softly and completed their little pyramid of paws by placing hers on top. Sliding her body forward, Asla wrapped a paw around her daughters shoulder and pulled her in close, placing a kiss upon her forehead. "Oh, my sweet girl. I love you so." Pulling back, soft, pink pads rested on Tira's pale cheek. "You're very beautiful, just like your mom," Asla grinned, flashing teeth for a moment. "No doubt males and females will both be begging for your attention. And that's what I need to talk to you about."

Dropping her paw back to the ground, Asla curled it against her chest in a cat-like manner. "Be proud of who you are. Be proud of your skills, including the skills of love. Never let anyone shame you for your choice in partners or your sexual tastes." Asla would rip off anyone's face that ever made Satira or Arcturus feel bad about sex. "Love whoever you want, whenever you want. Just don't get pregnant until you're good and ready. Do you know anything about contraceptive herbs?" Grey ears perked as she opened the floor to her daughter.
