These days that never end

Talon was used to things changing, but this would be a huge change. His nose trailed along her belly, a purely innocent gesture, wanting to feel her children writhing inside her. She'd never really been around a pregnant woman, and it was interesting to him. His silver eyes grew wide as he thought he felt one of the children kick, a grin growing on his face. Euphrosyne said they they would be like siblings to him. It was a pleasant thought, and behind his lanky frame his tail began to wag furiously. And yet it was scary, too -- he'd had siblings who had abandoned him. What if he was just a bad brother? A bad son? He stifled a whimper from escaping his throat at the prospect of being unwanted by Euph's own children. "I hope I can be a good brother," he said seriously, considering the prospect. It would be exciting, but he couldn't help but feel wary. But his surrogate mother seemed adept at knowing exactly what to say to ease his worries, and he would lean into her happily, sighing. "Thanks Euph," he said softly. "You're the best." |
