Towhee and I have three kids now. A set of twin girls and a son. Thinking of them made his chest hurt. 

I had journeyed to the coast to visit my parents, to tell them of the changes in my life and see if they would want to meet their grandchildren someday. When I got back I... I couldn't find the kids. Then my boy Caracal came out of nowhere, and... I reacted.

I grabbed him before I knew what was happening. Towhee was angry. I tried to apologize and she wouldn't hear it. he missed the irony of that statement. So I'm out. It paints me in a bad light, I know that. If it makes you feel more comfortable I will stay away from any children within your claim.

He didn't know what else to say. But he sighed, wearied by the retelling. I'll keep myself separated and focused on work. Whatever you need me to do.
