Time comes to a stop while her sister is gone, ears cupped forward to listen to the sounds happening outside the den. Her body starts to relax and if she weren’t so wound up, she’d easily fall asleep. She knew it would take a lot out of her but nothing prepared her for how it really feels. The few minutes she has alone begins to ease some of the tension. Her sister’s presence and aid is comforting but at the same time part of her wants to shy away from everything.
Maybe Siarut’s right. Is this a mistake?
Shivali takes a breath as Tahani comes back and she scoots closer, touching the closest thing she can reach. Before long, another wave rolls through her. She groans, shifts her weight. A quiet prayer repeats over in her mind, pushing until her third-born is welcomed into the world. She repeats the same as before, breaking away the tissue to another son, gently licking him all over until he makes the most beautiful sound. The new mother whines, pulling unnamed @Sos to her to finish cleaning him off and similarly aligns him next to his brother.
“Will you call for Takiyok?” she asks, quietly, and after a moment of consideration, “and Siarut."

i opened my mouth in the night and the night poured in
the night fit against the ridges behind my teeth
the night packed itself under my tongue and settled in, as if to sleep
