Redhawk Caldera Betwixt her boners

Shrike's silverish gaze sharpened when Peregrine spoke about having children. It was true- the family had always valued finding a partner in someone and having children, and rejoiced whenever the family got larger. His brothers and sisters had likely already begun having children, and who knew when they would eventually end up poking around this way and bumping into their extended family, the same way he had. Shrike, though, was quite aware that he was the peculiar sort, and that he'd likely have trouble finding a mate. 'Detached' was often a word that was used to describe him, but he didn't mind so much. He was as attached as he needed to be, to the wolves he needed to be attached to. He cared fondly for his family, and now he had found more. Peregrine had just given him a few more cousins, so in his mind, leaving Stellar's Jay Falls and coming here hadn't been detaching himself from his family at all. 

To the question, though, came an immediate nod. "Yes." His answer was curt, but quite genuine. Unless something came up that pulled him away, he would stay here as long as he could. It felt like home already. "All your kids live 'round here?" He asked. "What're their names? Is Osprey still here?" He asked, though he hadn't referred to which one.
