Bearclaw Valley fix you

Cicero felt little for Kove. He remembered that Kove had once been a part of his life, but in his time in Bearclaw Valley the male had not really sought him out, and Cicero had not sought Kove out. He decided that it would be okay that way, as the sentiment seemed mutual. Perhaps fate would put them on each other's paths again some day. It was almost time for them to go home now, so Cicero did not think that fate would choose this particular visit.

When he heard Damien approach, Cicero greeted his brother with an affectionate, rough nibble on the shoulder. Damien then asked him about the plants he was gathering. "No," Cicero said. "They are for wounds. Good herbs grow better in light places, some of them, so I wanted to bring some home." It wasn't like they were able to kill Grimnir here, anyway; Besides, even though a construction would be possible, Cicero preferred not to carry any poisonous herbs home, lest he or his siblings might get poisoned.

Scarlett soon joined them. She looked much different now that she had had her pups. Cicero nodded in greeting. She asked if they were ready to see the pups, and Cicero nodded in silent agreement. He smiled to indicate that he was glad they would see them before their departure.
