Bearclaw Valley Arms raised to the stars, begging them to listen.

GOSH missed this D: so sorry

merrick was in a fine mettle; he had spent the day near avicus and aventus, watching over the growing leggy things he had finally claimed as his. he was not the only father in ursus, but he felt his were best suited for whatever bloodstained lineage he might pass down.
this opinion was confirmed by how he did not think revui nor the silent woman were much visible when it came to putting together a vision of their own family. the greystone wolf had been devoted to his hunts and his rovings; he had not seen her in a time. and merrick saw no reason to force any sort of kinship.
he had that in revui; a gentle growl of welcome vibrated in his throat as he caught sight of the warrior and approached at a brisk step. "what is on your mind?" merrick purled, single eye drifting briefly toward the darkening skyline.
