Ragnarok wasn’t sure what had taken them on. The winter fever perhaps? He knew many couples often romped together but the thought that they would have pups didn’t occur to him. He wasn’t sure why, after their fervor it was very much possible, but Ragnarok never thought of himself as father material with his purpose. Of course it had been made substantially easier now that Church was with him. With her he never was plagued by the demons as if she exorcised them from his very soul with her presence. She was his light after all, his earth and he her Moon and Rock the thing that anchored here. She looked so happy, more happy than usually if that was possible. So bright as she danced around the den all the while prancing up towards him her fur flicking about in the air as light splotched through the den, dust flowing about refracting the light that went in.

She was so excited and while he was certainly happy to see her so gleeful he still didn’t know what had her so bright today. Not that he cared, whatever it was it made him warm inside just at the site of her gleaming smile and happy wagging tail. He returned her nuzzling, pressing into her and giving her a soft lick on the cheek. Such a greeting he never could have dreamed for himself, a beautiful imprint smiling at him happy to see him. He didn’t even know he could imprint but to have Church just made his life exponentially better. She stiffened, sniffing about seemingly catching the scent of his early morning kills. He gave a soft sound of affirmative nodding his head a small smile set on his maw before she answered his own question. He blinked at her confused though it certainly made since. The den had been left for, well he didn’t even know how long, he would have to agree, while he knew he had little sisters he was fairly certain they had been brought up as loners not of the mountain as he had. Not that he cared… he didn’t even know most of his immediate family anymore. Church was his family now and he was content in that. Sure the den needed a bit more sprucing up since they were choosing to reside in Spirane even if it was just for the winter rather than roam.

You’re probably right.” He said a bit hesitantly though he was still somewhat confused he wasn’t going to question it. After all the pelts were dusty and were due for some proper cleaning and if she was right about the birthing thing that was sort of gross, but what did it matter? He arched an eye brow at her then she was up to something that little look her fox-like face had certainly told him all he needed to know, especially as she poked and prodded at him.

She stepped back then looking at him as if she was calculating something though he couldn’t for the life of him say way. She was acting so peculiar today and her announcement that they might need more room in spring really did have him baffled. ”It is just the two of us will we be having guests?” He asked. Ragnarok didn’t have friends, not in the normal sense at least. Perhas she meant someone from Asteraia coming to visit? But then she nosed her stomach and it was as if something struck him over the head.

”Wait.” He blinked at her icy blue eyes going to her stomach to which he only perceived as thickening fur before now. ”You don’t mean.” It was then that a huge smile crept across his maw eyes widening and brightening as he leaped forward as if a child placing his head under her chest and lifting her front end off the floor as if he was picking the small female up before setting her back down.

”Really?! Us?” He said excitedly pulling away from her and looking into her bright beautiful aquamarine eyes. Well it certainly explained the ‘glowing’ feeling at least, but he wanted to hear her say it, they were going to be parents, puppies were coming this spring and they would be his.
