Maybe one more post from you and we can call this good? <3

Gone Tomorrow


Corinna's words did not go unnoticed, their subtle meaning not lost on Ice. That was certainly a good thing. Last year they had beat around that particular bush until they finally decided that it was simply not worth it. Corinna's heart had still belonged to Indru at that point, and no matter the desperation she had felt, she would not allow herself to give in to unfaithfulness. But since Indru had decided to give up on his family, all ties of love had been severed. It was not Indru's feelings and pride she was thinking of now, but rather her own needs. And those of her three remaining children. It seemed they were also on Ice's mind, and as he spoke up, she found herself smiling knowingly to herself. Maybe younger siblings would help cheer up her two daughters, and Fenru, well, he was ready to prove himself to the world.

Yes, we do still live and we do still love. That was absolutely true, no matter what the world through at them. It was not always easy, but that made no difference. "We'll make it. No matter what," she confirmed, the bite of determination in her voice distinctive, only to be replaced by giggles as Ice brought up the inevitable fact that if she became pregnant, her stomach would swell. Her black lips pulling back, she bared her teeth at him in a smile, tail thumping the ground. "And no matter how fat I will become, I will still be smaller than you. Do you think you'll be able to keep up?"

Pulling her legs back, towards her stomach, Cori rolled back onto her stomach. Pushing off the ground, she hoisted herself up. Bounding backwards she looked at him a coy smile on her lips, falling into a mock bow and beating at the snow with her forepaws. With a woof she shuffled backwards a few steps, prepared to lead him on a merry chase. There was no doubt in her mind he would follow, and the words and body posture made it clear that there was no doubt what lay at the end of this chase.

you do not know who is your friend

or who is your enemy

until the ICE breaks.
He didn't know what he'd expected, honestly - of course, he'd been hoping for her agreement, that she would feel the way he did.. that her need for a family, to keep going, would drive her; it had been the one thing almost making it happen last year, and perhaps, it would be the one thing saving Swift River this year. With some kind of fierce conviction she replied, agreeing with him, and he felt his grin break out in full bloom across his pale face, pointed fangs sticking out from behind dark lips as his white tail beat the snow thoroughly. If he stopped to think about it, it would terrify him - everything from the act to the complete responsibility, but despite his penchant for brooding, he was remarkably talented at not thinking sometimes. And in this case, it certainly was for the better.


A bark of laughter escaped him at her words, his ears falling out to each side of his head while he squinted at her, his mouth drawn into the same large wolf-grin. "Why, you'll seem a mountain goat next to me!" he responded merrily, bouncing up on all four with startling agility as she did the same. Behind him his tail wagged ferociously, and for a moment he sunk into the same bow, the thick fur of his chest and elbows almost brushing across the snow before he sprung forward a few steps, ready to follow her in the dance, light of heart and light of mind.


And then there were puppies. :B The end!
