dare you to move [birth]

Despite how much work and effort giving birth to her puppies was, both parents were now relaxing and giggling together in the aftermath of welcoming their new family members. Venom was most happy about the eviction notice going through. Despite an easy pregnancy she had been very excited to get them out. They chuckled along together at the thought of naming the puppies all after him, but the more the idea settled in the more they both liked it. As Maverick would go on to proclaim. Their first born would be Renegade, followed by little Rogue.

"They’re perfect,” She mused, about both names and the puppies themselves. Using his beginners luck the proud father went on, mentioning Rebel for the next, but changed his mind as the name rolled off his tongue. No, that would be for their youngest pup and only daughter. His verbal train of thought made her giggle, and further endeared him to her. It seemed like every day, and every life changing event they experienced together, only made her love him more. "Our little Bel.” Venom said quietly, trying not to think of her own mother’s nickname.

Maverick was hesitant to name their last boy Ruffian, and Venom had to agree. She wanted to keep that one for the little troublemaker’s father. His thought process was laid open for her to hear, and despite the exhaustion settling over her, Venom continued to offer little giggles and chuckles as he worked his way through naming their pups. "Rampage over Ruffian, certainly.” She agreed as he caught himself cursing in front of them, over and over again. Venom didn’t chastise him, only continued to giggle. "You’re fine. You have maybe a week to get out of the habit before their little ears even really develop. Right now they don’t know much more than food and love.” She cooed as she nuzzled their soft little bodies while feeling another wave of tiredness pull at her.

"I’m so happy, Maverick.” She muttered sleepily as she lowered her head back over his paws, sighing softly as she let herself finally relax against him. She could sleep easy knowing that he was watching over her and their brand new babies.
