Ragnar smiled affectionately at Junior as the child rushed towards him, peppering his chin with licks and nips, feeling Tveir lean against one of his forelegs as Junior paid him attention allowing Ragnar's attention to go to fully to Peregrine when the Readleaf-DiSarinno spoke to him. “I did what any father would have done,” Ragnar spoke to Peregrine lowering his already soft voice just in case the children happened to be paying more attention than they let on though he doubted it. At Peregrine's question regarding Tveir, Ragnar's gaze went to the child that resembled Thistle the most though none of the three children resembled him, which was, of course, expected considering the children were not his by blood. “That is Tveir,” Ragnar introduced the second born to Peregrine wondering if the other man could see Crete in the child. A confirmation soon followed when Peregrine spoke quietly that they were cousins and Ragnar spoke a redundant, “Yes,” despite that it had not been a question.
It was lucky that Ragnar did not have to ask Peregrine to specify which wife he meant because it was obvious enough to Ragnar considering Thistle was the only wife Junior and Peregrine knew of. “Yes, she is still healing from the cougar,” And she wasn't very happy with him currently but he did not confide that to Peregrine. He would call for her if her presence was insisted upon but for the moment Ragnar suspected she did not want much to do with him and in that was avoiding him. He couldn't know for sure but he had a suspicion at the very least.
