She'd hoped that the kids would settle down for Bronco, and simply curl up and go to sleep, making it easy for him to babysit...But she'd learned by this point that her son had absolutely no intentions of taking the easy route and letting his younger siblings settle down and go to sleep. Shaking her head, she let them be- and simply shrugged as they left the densite amid the loud sounds of a brawl. "Well...They'll sleep good tonight after he's done with them at least," She commented to @Phox. She kissed his cheek and, knowing that the stars were beginning to appear amidst the deep violet of the skies, she took off into a sprint, luring her mate away from her as the sounds of shreiking children faded into silence.
The squeals and barks of her usual daytime soundtrack faded into the chirrupping sound of crickets and the peeping sound of frogs from the marsh. She slowed when the trees parted and revealed the sky, having chosen this place knowing how much the stars and constellations meant to Phox. Still panting somewhat, she smiled, and sat down, turning her gaze for a moment to the sky. There was still a faint hint of light toward the West, but with every moment, the light trickled away, and the stars began to twinkle. "Hey," She breathed, and gave him a smile. "Maybe the 'Rora Borealis will be out," She said, recalling the night they'd seen them last, which was, for three obvious reasons, a very important night in their relationship. Of course, Niamh was horrible with names and failed to properly recall the name he'd given the dancing lights in the sky- but came close enough. "Where's the bear one again?" she asked, looking back up toward the stars. For some reason, she'd always struggled with finding the constellations that Phox seemed to pick out so easily, but he had a talent for picking out the concrete from the abstract, and the potential from the mess.
