Dragoncrest Cliffs Ocean eyes

Chestnut eyes blinked when Portia admitted that children hadn't been part of the plan. Wildfire felt like they'd discussed this before, though she couldn't quite remember and it still took her by surprise, in any case.

She had been dreaming about this forever, how could she not have names and other plans in mind? "In my family," she continued, "it's traditional to name pups after animals they resemble. It's also a custom to give girls middle names. But not to give them their names until they're about a month old." She paused to wet her lips thoughtfully. "I'd obviously like to balance these with Thur's traditions, although I know I don't plan to honor the latter one; I was never really a fan of that idea..." And there was no way she could wait an entire month to give her babies names!
