he could only dream of how wonderful they must look, he could not even imagine what they could look like, but even if they where what normal people could consider ugly, they would always be beautiful to him. running his paw gently over the three feathers he had cradled in his arms. he could feel the beautie in every brisle. one felt warm, just like Xiang, and while another also felt warm, it seemed to only be gathered in certain spots. and the last, felt rather cold, with hard long bumps running across it. he smiled softly, eyes closed, just taking in everything about his and Xiang's Feathers.

Xiang flew through the darkening sky, it was only late afternoon, but the cold weather lent to shortened days. He had been hunting and in his arms he held some chocolate frogs and a few swedish fish that he had risked to catch, praying had made him feel stonger this last day, he braved the soda river for Renem.
Scanning the ground below he caught sight of his dark night love, he angled his wings and began to dive, he called out "Renem~" and as he grew closer noticed that Re was holding something particluar, it glowed and flickered, but what was it?
Dropping rapidly now for surely Re holding something that was ablaze must mean something, he saw another thing, this to flickered with little flames and when he touched down and he focused and saw three, "Feathers?" disbelief colored his feminine voice, he dropped their dinner at their feet, and then dropped to his knees. Fish flopped beside them but Xi didn't see them, his eyes had filled with happy tears and his vision blurred, he knew what feathers meant. Xiang reached forward and wrapped his arms about Renem as best he could without crushing the gifts from the Swan.
"Re bebbies~"

he looked over, hearing the landing, knowing it was Xiang from the smell, and also the ability to actually see the form of his love. he opened his mouth, smiling to tell Xiang the good news. but was stopped as Xiang flung his arms around him. still smiling Renem wanted to hug him back, but was still holding the feathers. "we just got them" he said, burying his face into Xiang's neck. "they feel so beautiful" tears also came to his eyes, soaking into Xiangs fur. everything was going so perfectly... first he had a brother, not being alone anymore... then Xiang, someone he felt closer to then anyone else, and now... now he was a father... he had a family now. there was nothing more he could ask for.

Xiang sat back, just a little, "Oh Renem, they are," he wiped the tears from his face with one paw, "they are because they're like you and like me but more because of you."

Xiang settled against Re, "Yea," he moves his paw over them and describes them in turn, "this one, the warmest one is patterned like a fire, deep at the base and lighter as it goes to the tip, but there's a dark streak." Next he caresses the black feather, "This one has a spooky feel, very dark but there is life and light to give him hope, and her" his hand falls to the one that has spotty warmth, "This one is most patterned like you dark with spots of light but it's caught flames here and there." He put one finger to a candle spot, it doesn't burn but the fire seems to cringe away.

Still he could not picture then in his mind, all he could make out, was there texture, there warmth, there shape. but thats all he needed. her smiled, lifting the feathers up to hold them close to his face. then leaned into Xiang content. "she heard our prayers then... didn't she" he said softly "she felt our love, and heard our hopes"

"I never doubted that she would hear our wish." He sniffled and rubbed his eyes again, "but I never dreamed it would feel so, wonderful, that they would be so perfect."
Beside them the sweadish fish twitched and the chocolate frogs croaked softly forgotten in a moment of happiness between the two, Xiang nuzzled close to Renem just letting the moment wash over him.

After a moment Renem blinked, and sniffed a couple of times "did you, go fishing Xiang?" he knew that his mate was not very fond of the water, and he was certain that it was sweadish fish and dark chocolate frogs me smelled. he blinked and looked at his glowing love. "you really went fishing?"

"I didn't catch many," Xiang admitted reluctantly, "I was hungry and I figured you were too and I know you like the frogs and I was feeling on top of the world..." He picked up one of the fishes that had stopped moving, its body shined reflecting his own glow, he knew he was still hungry though he didn't feel it, so he bit into it. "Please eat whatever you like."

Renem smiled, holdings his arms out with the feathers, offering Xiang the chance to hold them. following the sense of his favorite food, he felt around till he finally found a dark chocolate frog. then finding his back much more eaily back to his Mates side, he settled himself down, reaching over and strokeing the feathers. "what do you think they will be like...what would we even name them"

Xiang accepted the feathers into his keeping, he looked them over closely and then with his paws he felt them, taking in their softness and texture they were all different but also the same, he thought, he was intrigued by the difference in temperature between the three it was easily noticeable, he wondered at the dark one's coolness but then decided that it was might be normal for feathers to feel that way and he only had the two others to compare it to and they were both sorta flamey like him...
With Re settled against him once again, Xiang contemplated his mates queries, "I'm sure they will be happy and wonderful, they'll get along all the time and grow up and find their own loves." He answered the first part dreamily still high on new feather luv, "As for names." He opened his mouth but was at a loss, "I dunno, you have any names that you like, or any suggestions?" With all the day dreaming that Xiang had done about having pups he'd never really thought about names, he wanted to follow a familiar pattern, but looking at three feathers wasn't the best inspiration for the femme male, "Maybe names will come to us when they're babies, when we can get to know them?"

Renem smiled and nodded. catching himself staring at Xiang, he blushed softly and turned his head back to the frog in his hand. not being able to see it but knowing it was there. "I don't know them yet. once i hear them, I'm sure we can think of wonderful names for them" he turned back to Xiang, chuckled softly and leaned forward dot kiss his lips softly. "I hope, that they sound as beautiful as you do."

Tears were in Xiang's eyes again, he was at a loss for words, overwhelmed as he was. "Renem," he whispered and cuddled closer melting inside, he held the feathers between them. He felt like a child again. "You really think I sound beautiful?"
