Learning Pains

She smiled and chuckled lightly at his impatient outburst to why she was bullied.
"I wish I knew, Lovey." She said between breaths in her story. She could tell a lot of her story was sparking his questions! Good! It'll give him ideas about what he could find out for himself! She hopefully brushed passed the bullying enough to somewhat satisfy him.

He prompted her to continue. She laid a dainty paw over his bear-life mitts, nearly a hair bigger than hers already, yes, he was going to be a big boy.

"Well, then I met your father." She smiled, "It wasn't anything magical though. He was looking for someone to help him with his new status as leader of the Armada. He liked the way I was organizing the things I found. He claimed me as his slave to work for the Armada." Should she tell him his father was the one that marred her? Maybe another time, when he was older. She didn't want him going about and trying to re-enact anything and scarring his siblings.

"He brought me to a cave at first while he dealt with the change in leadership. When he came back to get me..." Oh, would he have wanted his son to know his aunt had nearly killed him?... no, probably not, "He came back to get me when it was safe. I was working for the Armada for a while before we really started feeling like we loved each other. We worked well together. He thought so too. I worked hard to prove myself and earn my own rank! I was the Steward for a while before your Daddy loved me so so much that he helped me make you five!" That was probably vague and sufficient enough for such a young mind, right?
