Redhawk Caldera AQUACULTURE

Final post/round. Thanks for participating! :)

After enjoying a few more dunks, Raven took to doggy paddling around in the shallow water. Peregrine stayed with her, sloshing his legs in the cool caldera as he kept a close eye on her. He glanced at the other swimmers every so often, tossing smiles in random directions. He even watched Pan for a long moment, admiring the way he mastered himself in the aquatic environment. Mostly, though, Peregrine's eyes stayed fixed on his youngest.

When Raven looked like she might be flagging, Peregrine said, "All right, let's hop out and get you dried off, little fish." Whether she came along willingly or not, he coaxed her out of the water. "Do this," he instructed her, bracing his legs on the ground and giving his entire body a steady shake. "Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, yeah!" he chanted. "Give Aunt Fin a much-needed shower. That's what you get for showing up late to the party," Peregrine said to the Beta, leering playfully.

Because not everyone was quite done yet, the Alpha male reclined on the shore near the snoozing Wildfire's head. "If you're cold, c'mere and cuddle," he said to Raven, then folded himself onto the ground to enjoy the final stretch of the pool party.
