Who Deserves What Now?

The pale man walked through the darkened plains, enjoying the moments of silence. He rarely got them now, with the children getting older and louder. So he often slipped out while the pups fell asleep to enjoy the lapse of silence. It was broken only when he nearly tripped over something, and when he looked down he saw that it was rather someone than something. Alvin. Chuckling softly, he dropped down beside him, flopping down beside the boy. "Did you need a break too?" he asked, placing his head on his pale paws. He felt a large need to protect these pups, after having both parents lost here. He hadn't seen them too much since Esper died, but they had been staying with Darrah last he heard. Having also lost his parents, he took the kids under his wing. He was proud if Darrah, of taking them in when he couldn't.

Letting out a soft sigh, his golden gaze shifted towards the darker boy. He felt bad, like it was his responsibility to keep them safe. But he hadn't been doing that as of late, being busy with his own large brood of pups. Maybe he should take him and his litter out for a little adventure, exploring was always fun.
