Soon everyone was safely inside... and an extra feathered friend.

*gets down from Uri* Thanks for the ride, man

Huh? *shaking his feathers out* Yeah, don't mention it. You should be more careful, when those storm tides hit, the shore is not where you want to be.

I was trying to catch lunch.... The lunch tried to catch me....

Maybe leave food gathering to the Boys huh sis?

*pouts* Fiiiineee.....

You should learn some respect for your sister young one. Most of our best hunters are female.

*Just sitting nearby holding the baby*

She's not exactly a bird or experienced.. ugh it's a shame we didn't get to go to Asani's enough to learn more and tap further into our wild instincts.

21:05

Only one here i can think knows more than we do is Laika. And she can't hunt in her condition. (edited)

Mom said we're glorified puppies.... I'm not a puppy! I'm a wolf!

I'd say your sister's ahead of you then huh? She's already caught her breakfast and was wrestling with lunch. What have you eaten today?

1

Sis baby canines are call puppies. Anyway, I was busy doing manly work and building a shelter for all of us.

Seems that makes you the homemaker yeah?

1

*Grumbles under his breath* And who invited you in again? (edited)

*birds hearing* You did....

Did not. You showed yourself in and manhandled my sister at that..

I like being manhandled....

*Snaps at Onyx* Enough. We don't need conflict. Especially not here and now

21:10

He's helped us more than he could have.

*caught her remarks and shudders a bit*

We should be grateful he was willing to do what he's done at all..

Yes Mother.....

Uri. Please.. Make yourself comfortable. You're more than welcome here. We are in your land after all. *Ignoring sable*

No that's okay, No rain has ever hurt these feathers... Besides. I should be heading back to Nakurutu Village. I've been gone long enough.

If you're certain.. Please be safe..

21:15

We really appreciate your help...

Yeah, it's nothing, besides, I am the fastest one here, not even the rain can catch me.

*from the hut next door, they happened to build close to his, yells back to them* Second fastest!

*just looks in the general direction of the sound* Nobody asked you!

Because they already know brotha!

*Sitting sulking in a corner*

Annnyway.. i'm going to head out.

See ya...

Hey Dante?...

Yeah?

*steps outside, getting soaked but still manages to take off and dart away towards the village*

I'd.. Like to talk to you about something.

What's up?

*going to lay down for a bit*

*looking down at the baby.* So.. I um.. I was taught the bird people's Language. at least.. most of the basic words and a few special ones... And i was told that.. sometimes. Parents will choose to hold public naming Ceremonies for their baby... And i.. Was thinking maybe we could do that for her... Cause i think.. i've found her name...

I think that's a great idea. You totally should!

You really think so? Do you think the Tribe would be willing to go through with it?...

Doesn't hurt to ask I guess. The ones here seem to be a lot more accepting. Maybe it's worth a shot. Let me know how it goes and when it is, and i'll be sitting in the front row.

O-Oh yeah... But.. Um.. I was thinking more... You be there beside me... As.... Her Father?... Maybe?... Just.. Present as her Father at least?...

You're just saying that because I helped you, you don't mean that.

*She looks him straight in the eyes* She only exists because I had to give Aza what I wanted with you... She... She could have been yours...

21:34

I mean it... I.. I'd love for you to be there with us.

21:35

Even if you don't want her to be yours.. or even love her as yours.. i don't... want her to be fatherless... Do it for her at least if not for anyone else...

Mine? What do you mean you wanted her to be mine? What are you saying Laika... *takes her hands and leads her to the floor to sit with him*

*Realizing what she said. She looked away from him* N-Nothing Dante it's.. It's fine.. You can take the front row... I'd... Be happy if you did.. *She said. pulling her hands away from his and standing back up to go over to the bedded area and lay the baby down. covering her up with some of the feathers and leaves before laying next to her to make sure she's warm.*

*gets up, following her over, a hand on her shoulder* What are you not telling me?

2

I thought you knew... You heard what Aza had said.. before... *She shudders. tucking her tail between her legs* Before it happened...

*being quiet but listening to the conversation*

*also listening in quietly*

I thought you were just telling him what he wanted to hear so he'd get it over with.

I didn't have to say anything to him... I just.. Did what i wanted.. I used my body to say it.. And he.. he knew..

But... but you were faking it right? All an act?

*her eyes started to water* No... It was never an Act.. Dante... None of it... What he asked me to do... And what i did... It was real....

21:49

I gave him what he wanted... And he wanted... what i was willing to give you... to do for you.. with you... what i Wanted to..

21:49

it took all i had not to break down for it too... Because he wasn't you... and... because i knew... it may never be...

So it was real? What he asked of you, it was real? Laika, I... I mean I know we've messed around, and.. I know i've not always been the nicest to you. Why me? Why would you want to be with me? I'm horrible... Yeah, I hide it behind brovado, but, honestly, sometimes I don't even like me... You have so many better options.

21:56

Besides, if you weren't free before, you are now, you can have anyone you want!

I know.... But i don't want better... and i don't want... just anyone. Dante... I want you... *She said. her voice breaking* Even if you don't want me. even if i never get that attention from you... even if... Even if you find another. if you keep being you.. i'd want you... I'll fight every day until you see it... See me..

I DO SEE YOU LAIKA!!!. *his voice raised a little, not out of anger, but out of the pain of the truth coming to bare* You don't think I notice? I was bred to notice, I was bred to exploit it too. And you know what I see? I see someone too good to be with someone like me. You deserve better Laika... you always have. And if it's the last thing I do in this world i'll make sure you get it... And as for her, i'll be every bit the father HE chose not to be. But Laika... you don't need me, you never did. You need what comes next...

2

*She just sat up. Gently enough to set the baby down but then just hugged him tightly. on her knees. face buried in his neck* You deserve more than your life there lead you to believe, Dante... I just hope you realize it someday.. and.. I Hope whatever comes next... You're part of it...

22:05

You're free too.. Free to.. To do whatever you want. with whoever you want.... But... I'm always going to be here... for you.

22:05

The way you've been here for me.. Despite everything.

1

*his head lowers, facing the ground now just beyond her shoulder* I just want to do something right for once... I've done plenty of wrongs... you're the one thing I did right... I don't want to mess that up.

1

You won't... And if in the end you don't choose me. if you.. If you still Find another or... more others.. if you want to still be that part of you... I'll support you... Just. Don't push me away.. *She said softly.*

1

It's... it's not tlike I haven't thought about it.. *he pulls away to take her hands and look at her* But I was never allowed to before, so it wouldn't have mattered, but now that i'm free.... we're... free.... Does it still change anything? You're better than me. You have opertunities, I... don't know how to.... I don't know how to love someone okay... I'd just be dragging you down, I'd just hurt you... I don't want to do that.

2

Then... Just let me love you.. until you figure it out.. *she smiled softly. and kisses his cheek tenderly* But for now... Maybe.. Lay with me?... It'd... Help keep us warm...

But... what if I get this wrong? What if I mess this up? I... I can't lose you okay....

2

You'll never lose me... I'm too stubborn to leave you alone...

22:21

In case you've forgotten already..

Laika! I'm serious! What if I mess this up? I'm going to make mistakes, i'm going to fuck things up. I always fuck things up. I don't want you getting hurt.

Then we fix it together, like we have been doing, since... since you stood up for me the first time, and every moment since, you've been there, fixing my problems. I know together we can fix anything else that comes our way.

But what... but what if we ca...

*grabs his faceial fur and pulls him in for a kiss*

*his eyes go wide as he just throws his arms around her, holding her tight, closing his eyes, and for the first time, in a long time, begins to forget. Forget who he was, forget where they are, forget even what's going on around them.. For the first time, it's just them. In a moment he never thought he'd have, and one he doesn't deserve. But he wants to be... And so he makes a vow, he will become the person she deserves. Or die trying*

2

*She melts against him as the kiss lingers. Continuing to embrace him. The sounds of the rain falling outside becoming Muffled as everything else melts away. it's just them...*

*pulls away, hesitating a moment, looking around as if for permission, but only for a moment before pulls her in for a kiss himself this time, leaning her onto her side as he lays on his, facing her, still in his embrace*

2

*Was caught by surprise as he did. But Lets him. though gently guides him a little bit more away from where the baby was laying to make sure they didn't lay on her.*

So... Should we...? *Looking to his sister*

Leave the room? Yes

But... It's still raining...

*drags him out to the porch since it's covered*

*Has to help by moving himself since she can't just move him herself*

Mh..~

*sits down on the porch with him*

*lays there stroking her cheek, a gentleness he's never been known to show before*

1

*Lets him. Leaning into it. Before slowly. she breaks the kiss to look at him and taking a moment to breathe*

Soo... Are we sure that's ACTUALLY our dad?

*looking at her, his thumb grazing her brow*

Will you be quiet?!

Dante... Before... Before this goes any further... I want you to know that... I can't give myself to you fully... Until... You've shown you can give up what you once had for me... *She takes his hands in hers now* I... I want to mate for life... I don't... I don't just want to Breed with anybody because of my instincts. Yeah... I love the feral life but... i'm.. still me above all else and... I want that...

22:49

If you can't.. If you still want the freedom to.. Do what you want with any girl you want. I won't hold you back for it. and i won't stop caring for you but.. I couldn't... Be with you as more than a friend.. or just.. Someone you know.

*takes and cups her face.* Listen. I don't knowwhat love means. Sex was just a thing I had to do. But laika.... there is one thing I do know.... and that is.... you're the first thing I've ever wanted for myself. Even before I knew I was even allowed to want. Sure I might not understand love. Or... what you should, or shouldn't do. But I do know I don't want anything else. And if I only get one wish one thing that I can want and it be mine...... I'm glad it's you.

2

*She sniffles a bit. and nuzzles him.* Alright... We'll... We'll start tomorrow... Talking to some of the people here... Maybe not this tribe specifically but.. Maybe one that.. could help us learn... together.

22:59

But first.... I... Want to tell you the Baby's Name...

alright? What is it?

Makana Kapu... Forbidden Gift... But just call her Makana.

Heh... yeah.. I guess that does work doesn't it... Alright... Makana it is... Whatever makes you happy...

1

*She smiles a bit. and kissed his muzzle softly. before turning to check on Makana. and once sure she's alright. turns back around to lay down and cradle her in her arms*

*since the moment's over and she's now giving the attention to Makana, stands up and walks outside* You can stop spying now... show's over... *and starts walking into the village to see when the feast is going to be*

....fuck

*watching him walk off. That small smile on her lips taking shape again. feeling better than she had before. and curls up with Makana to keep them both warm until dinner. thankfully. the rain is about over*

Noooo idea what you're talking about..

*Following the sound of the bell and smell of the food*

*figured she may as well follow him*

*Watching everyone else leave while she lays and waits for Dante to return with information on what's being made and going on currently*

*Started to doze off a bit in the hut. that was until the baby started crying. which she responded to by turning her over and letting her nurse for a bit*

*comes back in, seeing thrm* they won't say anything other than soon. So I'll check every half hour.

*She nodded. relieved to see him* Alright... It smells good whatever it is... So... How.. Are you feeling?.

I don't know... I'm not sure.... Happy, afraid, nervous, terrified? Confused... Everything?

Then.. Maybe.. come lay with us for a little bit for now?...

I really should keep an eye out for when it's ready, wouldn't want to miss it.

Then I'll come sit out front with you.. *She said. Getting up and taking The baby out with her. And then sitting down right on the porch*

So.... what do we do now?

*Hands Makana over to him. Just setting her down in his lap and then leaning against his shoulder.* we wait.. together.

Okay, but if we're going to wait, why not do it by the fire? It would be warmer.

I don't know... after the last tribe I'm... a bit nervous.. there's already so many over there..

Yeah, but, this is different. The bonfire's at the beach, we're on the beach, we can just walk back home. There's a word i'd never thought i'd use... Home...

You never thought of the resort as your home?.

Not my home... Kinda hard when you're the housepet.

Well... you're not a housepet anymore... and home is wherever we want it to be.

Then... then I guess... I guess my home is with you... *he says as he places his hand on hers and his head against hers, looking off at the bonfire waiting for whatever sign he's supposed to be looking for*

2

*She smiles softly. And closes her eyes as their heads rest against eachother*

*sees the huge fire go off* I guess that's our sign... Laika... *he looks down, seeing her eyes closed and just rubs his head against hers nudgingly before closing his own eyes to wait for her*

Mm... Hm? Oh.. *Sits up abruptly. Blushing* Seems so... alright.. we should bring her too.. I don't like the idea of her being here by herself..

Of course we should, *stands up* come on.. *reaches his hand down to her, smiling again since this all started* I know you're hungry...

You're far more hungry than I am.. all you've had was a mango since we got here.... *Standing carefully and grabbing the baby to hold her close.*

Hey, from what I hear there'll be plenty for all of us...

*Arrived back with Dante and went to the bedding area to put the baby down to sleep.*

04:06

*Laying down close to her. Softly humming the same Lullaby her mom used to sing to her. And her grandma used to sing them and her aunt and uncle*

*finds a spot on the floor near them and lays down to go to bed himself*

*Looks at him* Dante?...

04:13

*Seeing that he's fallen asleep already. She moves herself and The baby more towards him. Interlocking her arms with his with the baby in between. Watching them both quietly. Before her eyelids became heavy and she drifted off to sleep herself*
