Northstar Vale A new reason to smile.

Ibis' words cut right through her. Deeper than any fangs ever could. Visibly flinching at the declaration that Ibis had said, Reiko had nothing in return other than an injured expression. Her ears went flat as she slightly pulled back away from the smaller woman as if to try and distance herself from the wounds that tore through her already pained soul. 

It had gone over her head over and over what Ibis was saying - always taking her words as nothing but affection shared between close friends than anything else - perhaps the personal turmoil she has been going through was enough to blind her. It didn't help that she was distracted by the just uttered words either that wounded her deeply. I'm happy to hear it. Now she mostly wanted to walk away and ponder over what had been said by both women, but more had to be said.

You may not like hearing what I have to say... but you might want to think of keeping him as a husband; for the children's sakes. Or any of them, even the woman - because Reiko herself didn't care what genders the parents were in the end. Puppies are better off with two parents, please take that into consideration. If you and Akavir have a connection, see if he can be a father and a King for you and your possible puppies.
