Little Inquiries

Quote:

Io was surprised that the queen had noticed her among the many during the pack's meetings, but she would nod, glad that she was a welcome presence despite their lack of previous conversation. Yet the golden woman would pause, her face would shift for just a moment into a pained expression. She knew that the queen had looked like she could have her pups at any moment, but she hadn't expected them to come at that moment! The albino's eyes would widen, before she would forcefully calm herself down and nod, helping best she could in leading Maija to a grassier more shaded area. She wished that she had brought her herbs with her, but she was too far away from them now - if she left, she would leave Maija to have these children alone.


But that would not be the case either - another female, one that was at the last meeting and Io recognized, would step toward the two of them . It seemed that she, unlike Maija, didn't put her face to memory. It was alright - the healer understood, she had no reason to before. "She is doing well for a woman about to give birth." She would answer the russet female before introducing herself. "Io Sovari, a medic. I can help with the birthing should it be something Maija wants." If she was a more solitary, protective mother she would give her space - but she wanted to be there, especially since this seemed to be Maija's first time having kids.
