Tzila's words hinted at a family history of antisocial tendencies, although down-to-earth Lane would never have deigned to describe such proclivities as "demons." Tatrket's words on the subject were wise, and Lane found herself nodding along.
"Tzila, you said you harbor these "demons" as well, but you've found a way to live peaceably with them, despite a lack of guidance in your formative years. Tatkret's right. As long as we're all on the same page about how we are going to guide Makatza, hopefully we can get her there too." And hopefully they could do it without any more permanent scars or disfigurements among her age-mates. This was the real reason that Lane had stepped forward to lead. She had no desire for the power or responsibility; this was simply the best move she could make to ascertain that her children would be safe. The next time Makatza decided to royally fuck up, Lane would get to decide how it was handled.
Lane nodded again. Tatkret spoke wisely and correctly on both counts. Lane was reassured in her decision to support his ascension to leadership. Of course the pup that assumes the beta position should be one who desires leadership. Lane was vehemently opposed to the idea that any child's future should be predetermined for them. This was why neither of her children carried her Vitale surname; if either ever showed a desire to train as a medic, she would teach them, but such studies would not be required of them as they were for her, when she was a child.
"Yes.. the pups will be made aware that this is a possibility that will be open to them, so they can think it over and prepare, if they wish. A beta will be chosen from those who volunteer, just as our leaders were chosen today." Lane nodded. The consistency appealed to her. Lane already had a pretty good idea of which pups would jump at the chance to lead, but just in case she was wrong, the children would have to option to volunteer themselves for the role.
It appeared that Tatkret would be correct about a third thing: Meerkat still had yet to show up, and it seemed that she might not make it back for whatever Tzila wished to discuss.
"What was it you wanted to talk about?" Lane asked Tzila. "We can fill Meerkat in later, if we need to..." Lane and Issorartuyok would hear Tzila's concerns and/or requests and assist her to their best abilities; this was the first appeal to them as leaders after all, and no doubt they both desired a strong start for their tenure.

Fading here perhaps, with an optional last post from Teo? Mai/Tzila won't be able to post again while on NPC status.
