Walk | Talk | Think
The proud mother smiled at the thought of her daughter taking after her as far as her techniques regarding hunting went, eager to see another fisher in their family. It was unconventional, something that seemed unique and valued because of it, and she could only hope that one of her children might be able to prove themselves invaluable in some way to their pack mates, particularly when they became of an age where they could move up in the ranks and start breaking out on their own. It was still early, and the colder weather right on the horizon, but already she was eager for the spring, hoping to see if what her husband said might be true.
As she felt the paw lift and curl around her neck, drawing her closer, Tahlia was relieved to hear Bane agree to being there for the time when she would show their children to the pack. Her tail wagged demurely at her side as she licked his muzzle where it pressed against her own, grateful to finally have a chance to right things now. It was better late than never, and perhaps with it some sense of recovered reputation might be able to be taken from it as well, a proper introduction being what should have been expected and approved of now that Anais and Jakart were no longer mere wiggly, defenseless babes. It would be a slow start to getting things back on track, but a start nonetheless, and for that Tahlia was eager with anticipation.
With a sigh her dark golden eyes closed when her husband settled his chin upon her head, comfortably seated within his embrace when he spoke up again and suggested what they might do now. Lazing about did sound wonderful, but not nearly as wonderful as did his offer of hunting for her. He was right; taking care of the pups, even if it was just the pair that she nursed, was tiring work and she sure felt it. But as she felt his teeth gently glide along her fur and then heard his playful yip, she suspected he was unaffected by the same tiredness that she felt. With a relaxed smile she opened her eyes again and peered across at him in his playful stance, chuckling gently as she answered, "That hunt sounds perfect. Perhaps I could join and observe? You have gotten to see me fish already; I would love a chance to see you in your element."
