Heron Lake Plateau missing you

Sorry for the lengthy wait! Was on vacation with limited/no access online.

Are you working toward a midwife mastery for Eljay? If so, I'd be happy to do another thread with you where they discuss the birth and stuff. I intended to include you in the birthing thread but then we decided to have the puppies arrive early and things happened really fast from there. :)

Raven grinned, glad that her words heartened him, and accepted his hug with affection. As he pressed into her, she wrapped an arm around his shoulder and pulled him tightly to her, feeling a sense of peace and satisfaction settle over her that she hadn't realized she'd been missing in the absence of her friend. He was perhaps the oldest friend she had — excepting Wildfire, of course [/mdash] and things just weren't the same without his sweet, affable presence in her life. As they parted, she nosed his cheek gently and flashed him another warm smile. "Either I or Quixote will call to you when it's time, okay?" she commented, not realizing at that moment that things would happen very differently when that time came a few days too early.
