Release The Kraken(s)!

The days since the gray couple’s children entered the world have been filled with firsts. Like, the first time they opened their eyes. Or the first stumbling steps each one took. Fern smiles happily at the playing pups, the fireplace bathing the room in warmth and light as they tumble around. Today is going to be another day of firsts and the gray woman gives Rudy a tender kiss on his cheek before asking softly, “Ready?” She knows he is on high alert, ready to jump in and prevent any injuries that might come from puppy curiosity.

Once Rudyard gives his acknowledgement, Fern stands, offering him a reassuring grin before clearing her throat and looking to their pups, “Alright little ones. Who is ready to go out and explore?” Eyes sparkle with delight as she looks them over, stopping any who try to bolt for the door and giving them soft tuts. “Wait, wait, wait. There are a few rules. Don’t leave our sight, no touching anything sharp, and no killing each other.”

A chuckle bubbles out as she looks to Rudy, allowing him to add on any rules she missed and, once he is done, Fern trots to the door that, until now, has remained closed. Swiftly, the gray woman opens the door and says, “Alright, let’s go greet the Hallows!” The sound of four sets of puppy paws scrambling for the door fills the hallway as Rudyard and Fern’s puppies race out into the world.
