They were miniature adults, with their various colorations. Rio's coat was a mixture of grays and browns with some darker parts over her head and a few places along her back. Lucia was a sandy brown with a cream colored belly. Harlowe looked much the same except for his darker muzzle, and Caprica was the darkest black she'd seen. Naniko was trying something that she had never tried before with these children, raising them bilingually. She spoke equal amounts of English and Itallian to them so that they would be able to communicate with either side of the family. If there were any around who knew French, she would have tried throwing some of that in as well...but even Naniko was beginning to forget it a little bit, from months of not using the language. Ehno was returning to the cabin--his scent got stronger with each second until he arrived. He seemed to be in a good mood--a successful hunt, perhaps? Or some other reason. She had been wondering about when he would be returning back to Crimson Dreams, having been in Phoenix Valley for nearly two months, but chose not to ask about it. These lazy, happy days had passed by so quickly with him here. What would she say to the children when he left? "Papà! Papà! Siete casa!" The chorus of small voices came in Itallian as they greeted their father and the pups crowded around him, jumping up. She smiled as well, nudging Harlowe forward a little to join the group. He seemed interested but did not speak, as usual, keeping quiet and just observing what was going on. "Sono fare grande" She said, grinning. The nudge made her a little confused--but he was just in a good mood, that was all. She gave him a light nudge in return. "Ogni volta che ritornate pensano you' la VE ha portato loro qualcosa" |
