@Mahler <3 part 4 of ingram's "be a good father" task

he knew little of the grim-faced gargoyle that had first met him upon the borders, but ingram knew him to be a man invested in caretaking -- or at the very least, invested in the care of diaspora's whelps. for that reason, ingram sought mahler today, on a day that seemed as cheerless as the kapitan.

he was nervous as he approached. mahler was a man of high command and good standing within the pack, and his reticence daunted the eyjolfur. it was only his sheer investment in being a good father that ingram forced himself into mahler's company, giving the man a timid smile and a wave of his tail as he caught the man swinging for the borders.
