He felt hurt when she pushed him back a little, it did hurt, but he didn't say anything, only let his ears fall back, his eyes watch her as he stayed silent, he wasn't sure what to do, what to do, what could he say that would make her feel better? She lost her father to the brink of a war perhaps, he never knew his father, never heard anything about him. He was too young to remember losing his mother, he only knew she hid him in a bush and ran off, and he could hear the cackles and snarls in the distance.
He was too young to know, to understand the concept of death.
Perhaps she had been to.
"You can be that strong, you are that strong," he said softly in his rough voice, standing up and getting closer to her, sitting back down curling himself about her, but not touching her, not just yet. He wanted her to feel safe before anything else. "You mother's strength and father's courage is in you, you trusted me, a stranger, and came here, somewhere you never knew...you are that strong Ruffian you are..."
He got a bit closer to her now, his head behind hers as he leaned over her neck, a purr in his throat trying to cal her, keep her from crying, "Past's are not the best, and a lot of the time are hard to cope with, but the future can be different Ruffian it can..." he said giving her gentle nuzzle.
"I swear Ruffian, on my life and heart, no matter what, I'll always be here, I'll aways be here for you when you need me.."

Ruffian didn't know what to say, so for a while she didn't say anything at all. She laid there with Daemon by her side, doing her best to compose herself so she didn't look like such a mess. She really hated when her emotions got over her like this, and when she had little control over what she was doing.
"Daemon..." her voice was quiet, near a whisper. She still couldn't think of anything to say, so instead she shifted around so she could look up at him. Her sat there for a moment, just staring....and then she set her head on his forelegs, feeling the bits of comfort that he was trying to give her. It felt good...and a bit more...right.

His ears perked forward as a smile came upon his features, as she turned he stayed still as to not get in the way for once. As she looked at him, he looked at her and gently touched his cheek to hers, a low rumble in his throat. "Shh its alright," he said with a smile and kept his head up as to not put pressure on her neck, his mane did ad a bit of extra weight he had to admit.
Daemon believed things were alright now, to think a simple question about cubs would bring about such emotions in them both, but they had gotten through it, and there was no doubt in his mind that they could not get through anything together. They get through everything, he'd make sure of it.
He'd try to think things through a bit more carefully, and he'd never pressure her into anything of course. Never, only if she was ready.
He aways wanted a family, he dreamed of it, but he wanted it to be a dream that they would both share at the same time.

Ruffian's eyes opened, though she only looked in fron of her, not back up at her mate, her friend. She felt that moving would ruin the bit of comfort she felt, and so she stayed where she was, hoping that Daemon would understand what she meant without her moving much.
"Just give me a little time, Daemon," she said quietly, though with a bit more confidence behind it. Her tail unwrapped from her side to flop next to Daemon's again, a sign that indeed, she was feeling much better. "Just a bit of time, and we can see about this little dream of yours."
She felt like such a burden for him, but if he was willing to carry it, she wouldn't abandon him for his own courage in that.

"Of course," he said smiling, letting his tail slide a bit closer to hers, so that their tails touched only slightly, "In time, I want it to be our dream, we both will be ready in time," he said it again only to reiterate the fact that he would not rush her, and he hoped she got that from his words, he'd never rush her into such a thing, n-ever.
He stayed silent then, and let his eyes look out to the sun, it was nearly risen to its fullest over the horizon line, the divider between earth and sky, he only wished that he had wings so he could carry her there.
Though dreams and wishes are intriguing things, are they not?

She settled in a bit closer to him, curling up near his side. She was thankful that he was being so patient and understanding with her, and that indeed they would do things, but now that they were together, they would need to do these things together. A struggle in itself, but something that could bring great benefits to them, as well.
"Alright, Daemon," she said warmly, letting her smile grow as she kept her head on his forelimbs. It was comfortable here, even if his mane tickled her when he wiggled around a lot. Something she would just have to get used to!
