Sleeping Dragon Music sounds better with you

He'd need his time to digest this and fully -- absolutely -- wrap his head around it that he'd just agreed to sire her pups. Not really what he'd intended to do here somewhere in the coming months, but better than anything else. Wildfire practically overflowed with thanks at this, which he couldn't quite keep up with if he'd tried. His tail gave some slow waves, pleased, somehow almost flattered, but happy that she was happy with it too. It was going to be a big change for her, if she did mother a litter, so knowing that she seemed really keen to this definitely helped ease him and he had to admit, an element of her delight was contagious. "You're welcome," he slipped in somewhere after her voice seemed to run out, his tail then waving harder.

Dio flicked an ear at the mention of the commander, and truthfully, she'd been on his mind almost this entire time. "Sure, we can go," he said, nodding. Together. Although he was suddenly a little nervous about it? Even better to get it done sooner. Wildfire had probably a better idea of her trail, so he'd follow if she went. He was poised to go but there was something else on his mind too, and he might as well get right to the point.

"Portia -- she and I, there's something, and while it's not quite like that," he made a face that alluded to the fact that there was a lot he could say. If he intended to be in their lives, and have Portia close to him in his, there was going to be some overlap here beyond just being a part of the same pack. But this was just part of it. How protective of this information did Wildfire wish to be until it was actually happening? Giamalva wolves had been plenty secretive, if they could help it, so courtesy their conditioning and not remembering specific protocol on the subject well before Gyda's had been born, he'd naturally default to that. "I would like to have her know about this ahead of time if you're alright with that? It doesn't have to be right away.. you know, just to save her some questions in the long run in case it does get like that and, well, they end up looking like me," he smirked with the exaggeration, but simply put, he did intend to be up front with the both of them in all the ways he could.
