Redhawk Caldera sunshine on your toes

Fox wanted to go instead, leaving him here to look after their three remaining children. Peregrine's eyes teared as he looked at her. "I want to go with you," he murmured. "I want to be there." He looked sadly down at the little body wrapped in his arms. He placed a last lick on "Derp's" head, then rose. His legs felt like jelly and the rest of him just felt hollow, all except for his chest, which was tight.

"Is there anyone you trust to look after them for a few minutes so I can go with you?" He tried to keep his voice even, yet it shook. He didn't want her to have to do it alone. He also didn't want to leave their tiny offspring under anyone else's care. But he desperately wanted to be there to lay their son to rest too.
