Whitefish River Like a bolt out of the blue

Reiko's eyes shot away from Hiromi as she proclaimed her feelings, unable to look the woman in the eyes without losing her own composure in the moment. Maybe it was the bitter shell that dulled how much those words would have affected the Empress a little more if it was another place, and another time. I love you too. But it was more of a sisterly tone, one that lacked that same romantic kick to it and still Reiko could not look Hiromi in the eyes without shattering.

Thankful that Hiromi changed the subject onto the pups, Reiko's eyes shifted once more but they were softer. Warm once again as they turned to the puppies at her side. Of course. Uncoiling her body, letting the plush tail she used to keep them nice and cozy slip to the side to expose them a little more to the curious Hiromi.

One prince, and two princesses. Haruki, Hotaru and Sumi. She nosed them all in order to introduce them, giving each a loving kiss with a gentle flick of her tongue. They are but hours old.

@Haruki, @Hotaru, and @Sumi if you guys wanna do a puppy post feel free to do so!
