Redhawk Caldera In a hospital

It hadn't occurred to Shrike that there were things he could do to keep the female from getting away, without repeatedly having to knock her out. He was surprised, though, when these things were mentioned- breaking legs and such, given his grandfather's history. Osprey himself had been taken hostage, and in an attempt to keep him from getting away, his feet had been maimed and, until the rescue party had showed up, it had worked. He licked his lips at the thought of doing something similar to the wolf, even though he did feel guilty as well. He knew doing such a thing would have been frowned upon by his entire family- but here was another family member who was asking the same thing of him. And this time, they were the good guys- right? "Gotcha." came his smart reply, and he nodded firmly. He would do whatever he could to bring her back. 

When Peregrine spoke about Finley's pups, his ears shifted in surprise. Three pups? They'd have their hands full. And when the time came to teach them to hunt, they'd all be busy. Coming so soon after a famine, he wondered about the health of the pups, but Peregrine didn't seem to sound too worried, though no doubt the same thoughts had crossed his mind as well. 

Yet again, he was surprised by his alpha who then proceeded to flatter him quite a bit. He hadn't really thought of Peregrine as what he would have defined as family. True, they were related by blood, and this did make them family at least in part, in Shrike's mind, he was surprised to see that the alpha liked him so much. You're always so slow to get attached, Shrike, Came the voice of one of his sisters. People like you. Don't you like them? It wasn't an unusual occurrance for Shrike to find out that others either doubted that he liked them, nor was it common for him to feel just how much he was liked- though he was rarely phased either way. Needless to say, he took this as quite a compliment, and dutifully accepted the alpha's gracious invitation. "Our family done it before," He said, quite sure Peregrine would get the reference. "Shrike Redhawk. I like it. Thank you, Peregrine."
