The kids didn't ask any further questions about what it meant to be deaf, which Fin wasn't foolish enough think meant they understood. They probably had come to some random conclusions about it, which would one day come out and she'd have to unravel and try to re-teach them the facts. Finley had raised enough pups to know how it went.
Satisfied that they had learned "hello", she went on to teach them a few more words. They did seem interested in picking signs for their own names, but Fin decided to leave that lesson up to Towhee, who knew the language better than anyone and thus would know what signs already meant something else. At the end of it, she let them know she'd be signing in ptero whenever she spoke aloud so they could start learning more. She'd also try to get them to do the same when they could.
I can tell you already, Pox isn't gonna do it. But there was hope for the girls.
