Stone Circle take a stab

Phox guffawed at Reverie's joke, amused by their easy back-and-forth. It was nice to chat with somebody so likable. When he asked about Fig, however, Phox felt like all the light suddenly drained out of the sky. Still, the other wolf had offered to take him to see Figment, so maybe it wasn't all bad. Er, is something wrong? he asked, falling into step beside the stranger. He's okay, isn't he? And the kids? Towhee said I was a grand-dad again this year.
