The Sentinels More than a lot

Mind if we double up and use this for rank things? :D If you want it to happen in timeline though we can start a new (or simply behind the scenes assume <3) and I can edit this

Dante had heard tell of Saena's visit, just by dint of being closely aligned with all who had met her, but was not sorry to have missed the encounter.  It may have been nice to see her after so long had passed, but their last parting had hardly been amicable (from what Dante remembered), and it was probably for the best he had been tied up elsewhere.

In speaking with @Lasher, however, other subjects had come up.  One that involved his mate rather directly, in fact.  This was why he sought her out, though he wasn't positive how she'd react to the offer he was going to make.  In this Osprey could be a pretty closed book - her views on rank and responsibility were one of those unpredictable things he had never really needed to sort out.

That was about to change, wasn't it?

She was sprawled out when he found her, and he approached slowly.  "Lazybones," he teased in greeting, grinning and coming in to bump his muzzle lightly against her side.  Her pregnancy had made her moods unpredictable at times, and they had argued a few times as a result.  But right now this matter was too important to worry about disturbing her, at least to his mind.
