Inner Wishes.
 Ever since the idea occurred to him, Xiang wanted to have pups with Renem, Re's bebbies was how he referred to them, he wanted to be as good a parent as his own parents were, kind and to know just what to say when his little ones needed to hear it.
Sometimes he would daydream, nothing highly specific, but maybe, if they had a little girl - would she be a calm pup, or would she be hyperactive and always into something? If they had more than one - would the siblings get along, he'd always gotten along with his litter when they were together. He liked to think far into the future, their babies would grow up, he wished happiness to them, whoever they were and to their future mates.
When he woke up the dreams would linger with him and he was happy to have Re and his other friends, so close to his heart.
Tonight though he didn't have a space in his mind for anyone but Renem, they went together, silent, solemn, not needing words between them, to pray to the swan. It was the eve before Valentines; you could feel the emotions in the air - running high. He kneeled at the base of the tree and with all of his heart and mind prayed. What the words were, afterwards he couldn't quite remember, it wasn't how he said them that was important, he thought, the prayer was pure emotion, inner wishes.
As they left the island tears formed in Xiang's eyes, there was never the thought in his mind that their prayers would not make it to the swan, it was all just a matter of time, the right time, and their prayer would be answered.

I am THE Kitsune Zenith: *seeing his sister, starts flicking sticky lemon drops at her so they stick in her fur* Kittyintheraiyn *Smiles sweetly at Zenith and concentrates on burning the lemon drops completely from her fur, leaving ash that she wipes away*
"Zenith..." Fiara just flits near her flamey brother with a grin on her face. I am THE Kitsune Zenith: *unaffected by her closeness he gins in feigned excitement* DEAR sister! *he grabs her into a hug, putting a sticky marshmallow note in her back that says "I'm pretentious"* He does this to her because he loves her of course. Kittyintheraiyn Fiara snorts, dissolving into giggles, unable to hold a straight face for too long. She hugs him back unaware that there is more candy stuck in her fur, "Hey Ze," she ruffles his hair and tweaks an ear, still flitting airborne, "what are you up to? Causin' trouble~" Skyefenyx Ashe: -waves to Fiara- Fiara! <3 I ssee you've kweh grown asss well!
-pointedly ignores Zenith- I am THE Kitsune Zenith: As usual, sweet sister of mine! *he smiles genuinely back, only really showing his sweet side to his family members, so far* Am I ever not causing trouble? What are you up to, flitting out and about here? *doesn't notice Ashe* Kittyintheraiyn "Ashe~ Hullo there, indeed." She grins at the green femme and crosses her legs sitting midair.
"Ze the day you behave is the day I go swimming." She rolls her eyes, "I'm up to nothing in particular, but it's such a nice day today, don't you think?" Skyefenyx Ashe: -grins- I sssee you have figured kweh flying out. -takes off and floats next to her- What do you kweh think? -laughs-
Coatl: D: -clings to Ashe for life- I am THE Kitsune Zenith: Yes, it is a nice day, which is why I'm in the nice shade. *he smiled, she was one of the few that knew about his condition. The light was too strong for his sensitive eyes and often caused him much pain, however at night he could see very clearly* However, I'm tempted to behave simply to see you go swimming, which honestly would be a paradox because I would do it to cause trouble, therefore it wouldn't truly be behaving... but would you know that? Kittyintheraiyn
"Wonderful Ashe~ Hullo Coatl. Yes I figure I was not strong enough to hold myself aloft before, but now," wink, "Can't bring me down~"
"Your logic is truly mind boggling Ze, see I'm boggled." She makes a face and him and wiggles her pale eyes, indeed the three pups of Night and Fire had photo-sensitive eyes, but enhanced night vision. "Though, if I went swimming of my own free will, would you have to be good?"
Wonders why Ashe and Ze do not greet eachother, "Maybe I should introduce you two? Ashe, this is my brother Zenith. Zenith, Ashe and Coatl."I am THE Kitsune Zenith: Ah yes. We have met. Hello, honorable[/] sweetcheeks. *he smiles in the way only a smartass like him could pull off without being a COMPLETE jerk... just mostly a jerk.* My dear sister, though I love you dearly, it is not difficult to boggle one of your intelligence level *he joked and kissed her on the cheek lovingly*Skyefenyx Ashe: -smiles- Ah, that would kweh explain it, no? -smile widens- Coatl isss kweh not happy about thisss new kwehdevelopment, sssadly. -wraps him around her neck and chest as it is a safer anchor-
-looks sideways at Zenith- We've....kweh....met. -eyes narrow- Do not kweh insssult my friend, flame-tail. Ssshe kweh may be your ssisster. But I will kweh not tolerate sssuch. -eyes him- Kittyintheraiyn
"Ah... You're dodging the question, lovely brother~" She nipped at him before he moved away from the kiss, and grinned showing her teeth.
"No no don't worry about it Ashe." she spreads her hands wide in a gesture of calm, "we're just teasing."Skyefenyx Ashe: -raises an eyebrow- Asss you kweh wisssh, Fiara. -eyes Zenith with disdain- ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Skyefenyx Ashe: -smiles at Fiara- Thank you. -nibbles one- Aha! kweh, Fiara, love, we are kweh not ssupposssed to acknowledge that we are kweh pretty. I kweh do not know why though. -giggles-

Fiara had flown as fast as she could with every intention of returning to Ashe with the promised medicine. High above the trees the with all of Numa land spread out under her was usually a sight that made her pause to take it all in but not this night. Spotting easily the area that she called home with her fathers Fiara angled her wings and dove, Xiang was outside and cooking as she grew closer she could see him at the campfire, prepping that huge black pot in the fading light.
Landing with a loud exhalation of breath formed into a question Fiara's expression was clearly distressed, "Daddy, where is that vera plant, that we use for burns?"
Xiang answered automatically, "There are some fresh leaves in with the other medicines-" and was cut short when Fiara rushed away and into the cave. Xi followed after if a little less swiftly and found Fiara rummaging through the cabinet where the first aid box was kept. "Are you hurt?" His expression was unsure as he addressed the back of his daughter's head, she had found the box and already fished out the leaves when she turned, stood and answered.
"I'm not burned today, Da. If that's what you're worried about-" The hurt in her tone was not easy to ignore and Xiang didn't try, but he also didn't comment on it and so once again Fiara didn't push. She's wanted to brush past her father and head straight back to the waiting Ashe, but then the chance to talk with her fiery father was possibly appealing, he had let her down in the past but trying again, always again, hoping that this time, his knowledge or experience or something might be gifted, maybe he could shed some light for Fiara, maybe. She walked back out into the night heading towards the small fire and sitting against the rocks there, where Xiang did his prep and cooking.
In the kitchen Xiang had replaced the box into the cupboard and then gathered onto a tray the three bowls of ingredients for a second try at his latest recipe. Upon returning outside he was mildly surprised to find that Fiara was still there, he didn't know what to say, he'd thought that she'd be gone again, off trying to understand her fire or whatever it was that she had been doing in the forest. Xiang couldn't quiet grasp himself what it was she wanted to learn, her paw was aflame, as her feather had been, it was a part of who she was, how she would be. Her flame lit brother didn't have any questions as to why his own tail was lit, thought Xiang though he tried to put it out of his mind the fact that he had not seen hair nor spark of his youngest since his puppyhood days, he had heard that the boy had grown up and had grown in a lovely set of wings with color and size to rival even his own so he figured that he was okay and would return someday, maybe with a family of his own, maybe that was what kept him away... Xiang had continued with his actions of prepping the foodstuffs, peeling the stems from the flowers and berries as he was lost in thought.
Fiara interrupted her fathers thinking without apology nor even an inkling of his worried wonderment. "I met up with an old friends of mine today, out in the forest," Fiara knew that he father didn't think much of her actions deep in the woods, so she didn't go into unwanted details with him, "we were catching up, just talking and then," Fiara tried to meet her father's eye but even if he was splitting his attention between his task and her, he didn't quite seem to look her way when she wanted him to. "Then when she took my hand to help me up," Fiara extended her right paw, palm to the dark sky, "I burned her Da, that's never happened before, not with you, not with Re-daddy, not with Jayce or even Zenith." Her words came tumbling out full of emotion but she wasn't reduced to tears, having much more to say, she didn't stop to let her father talk. "I burn things that I don't want to, I don't care if I burn myself, that I've gotten used to, but this, this is just to much. She said it was her choice, she said that she was okay, but I saw the pain in her face. I want to be her friend, I want to be close to her, but I can't accept burning anyone that I want to be close to." Fiara had summed it all up as best she could, "And that's the way it is, Da." She closed her mouth and looked expectantly at her father but he didn't give her much of an answer and disappointed she murmured a 'bye', she'd been gone for longer than she'd wanted to and felt that the time was a waste, she realized to late that she should have returned swiftly like she had promised, for when she returned, Ashe's house was dark and still.
