Moonspear once more, with feeling

private is fine! <3 and i love the thread title!

Moonspear was full of children. He wasn't far away when Sialuk's summons came, and as he approached, his eyes flitted briefly upon each small face before resting on hers.

Many of them could be his. None of them could be his. It didn't matter, though, because as long as the possibility existed—and it did—he would be here.

Hi, Sialuk, Killdeer said warmly, dipping his head. Thank you again for welcoming me back. What's up?

He might always be nervous around her, beautiful and self-possessed as she was. But he thought it would fade somewhat with time and acquaintance.
