She could feel the tide. It was inching closer and closer, darkening the sand and then-- receding. Each time it came, it left, over and over again. Clockwork. And each time it came, it brought something with it. Each time it left, it took something away. She could feel the water tugging at her as the conversation shifted, pulling her into a new direction, taking her into the water, submerged. Lannen spoke, his words acting as the waves and his voice the undertow, pulling her with him. She smiled in reply, pausing, allowing the shift in the waters and the conversation. The puppies had moved farther away from Tayui and Lennen and closer to a large oak tree. It towered above them and the four of them were staring up at it at the moment. She chuckled when she saw one fall backwards, rolling into one of her siblings with a pronounced oomph. The puppy stood up, unharmed, giggling madly. Tayui sighed. Noir was alright.
Since they were so young, they were still trying to figure out the concept of a strange thing called 'walking.' Since they were luperci children, they developed a few weeks faster than most wolves did, but they were still puppies nonetheless. They couldn't talk yet and still hobbled around on their short, stout puppy legs -- some better than others -- but they had already become interested in the world around them.
Tayui turned to Lannen, her smile still evident. She chuckled, glancing one last time from the puppies and back to the male. "Just over a week old," she replied. "But it feels like a lot longer. They're already managing to walk, some better than others," she noted with a chuckle.
