Redhawk Caldera Fully symbolic creatures.

"Oh, uh.." 

Ruenna was still reeling a bit from embarrassment, and so it took her a moment to wrap her mind around Towhee's question. 

"Uh.. Like.. settled, I guess. You know, nearby." Rue had just gotten to the Caldera, and she really didn't want to have to move again. With her chronic back pain, life on the road was out of the question, and a long-distance relationship would be a strain. 

Rue realized she had described a situation, but not really a person. What would her ideal mate be like? 

"Um.. Reliable. Thoughtful. Even-tempered. Understanding.." she continued. It would take such a person to see past Rue's physical limitations, after all. 

"And.. someone who'd make a good father, I guess." Welp, here came the embarrassment again. Rue's gaze shifted away. This was the first time Rue had mentioned to Towhee that she hoped to be a mother someday. Was there even a place in this pack for pups who weren't Redhawks? Would Rue be forced to relocate if she wanted to chase this particular dream? This was Rue's way of asking without actually asking.
