when you try your best but you don't succeed

For the first time since Ike fled after the fall of Ashen as he laid out the options they had at their disposal his wife had an answer for what she might want to do. She suggested that they go south to the pack that her mother's ex-husband led. He of course could piece together easily that she was speaking about her father though he understood why she didn't refer to him as such. He had been around her family long enough now to have heard or picked up on the pieces of their history. From what he had gathered it didn't seem like the way her father left had left them with a very favorable view of him so he was slightly surprised to hear Ike suggest that they go to Tojo-kai, but he didn't have any reason not to either.

"I will go with you wherever you wish to go," he reiterated with a smile. "I do prefer the idea of living with a pack rather than on own own in the long run. I only have your opinions of these wolves to go on since I've never met them myself, but if you think it could be a good place for us to live then I will be happy to do so." He leaned closer to nuzzle her cheek as he added, "As long as I get to live my life with you, my wife, I am content."
