Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vestip hadn't gone far, no. But he was far enough away that he could think. He went a joined a pride he wasn't comfortable in, and knocked up a female when he thought he couldn't have cubs. His year was NOT going his way. The one female he really did want to be with doesn't like him for his ways. Despite wanting to be with her, he wouldn't settle down with her. He didn't even want to join a pride. Yet here he was. Having to learn rules and the 'polite' way to speak to a female. It grated on his nerves. He was constantly ignoring Mawu and her family, wanting to be by himself, avoiding everyone in the pride, really.

His name caught his attention and the odd-eyed Vestip's head snapped up and he sighed. It was time, from the sound of it. So, he went to where he knew Mawu was and peered inside, his heart constricting in pain when he saw the panicked look on her face. Why did he go and do this? He settled inside carefully, laid where he could lick her face and give her soft nuzzles. What else could he do? Hell, he never thought he'd be like this. "Breath Mawu..." he said softly, not knowing what else to say to calm her down.

Vestip was surprised she was even speaking to him with the way he'd been treating her. Ignoring her, leaving before she did, waking up before her, going to bed after her. Almost as if he didn't want to spend time with her. In a way, he didn't. He'd put her in the situation she was in now, and he hated it. Truly, the Firekin colored male didn't want to be a father. At least, not when he knew he was. Still, he promised her he'd take care of her, so here he was. "It's ok, Mawu... ....I think."

Her words stung him straight to his cold heart. He did want to be here, just... he wished it was under different circumstances. Still, the male said nothing and continued to try to console the pained female. When their son came, he blinked. It was the color of his stripes and mane. So.... The little boy was so pretty. He carefully shifted closer, lapping at his head carefully, helping with he process as much as he could.

"Sssh... I'm.... not leaving, Mawu..." he whispered as he pressed their heads together. He felt like a piece of crap for doing this to her. He shouldn't have spent the night with her. It wasn't supposed to happen like this. Still, the deed was done, and it was time to reap what he sewed.

Vestip helped as best as he could, cleaning the cub with his own big tongue, brows furrowing a bit as he saw the wing markings on his bak and the stripes on the tail. That was indeed his son. But where'd his color go on him? It was lost, it seemed. Looking off to the side, he gave a faint smile. Ah, well. He had two sons to teach how to please the ladies. "Why are you sorry?" he whispered, licking her face once the cub was born, nuzzling gently as he moved to sniff her back side. How many more were there? His brows furrowed at the strong stentch of birth and it caused his nose to wrinkle a little, but not noticably.
splitpersonalityumoShe sighed, looking down at her two sons and no longer felt at all sad that so far only boys had been given to her. She smiled, looking to them. One dark and one light. Both so lovely and with wings too. Angels. Simply angelic. She looked to Vestip and sort of gained a sad face. "I am sorry that this is not-what you want." She said. "What you truely-want."
splitpersonalityumoShe paused, her face going tight as another child passed into the world.

CoffeeVestip would have answered her, but then her face contorted with pain as a third child was flushed out into the world. This time, he gathered up the bundle and cleaned her himself, not caring of the taste. This one was white and yellow, a beautiful girl with his leg marks. But that's all she had of his. "She's so bright," he murmured in astonishment. Mawu hardly had yellow on her, so he was wondering where the little girl had come from. She was wingless, and in a way, he felt relieved that she was.
splitpersonalityumoMawu's eyes widened upon seeing the cub and she leaned over to look at her. Tears began to weal in her eyes as she fell back, her apparent happiness flowing. "A girl. A girl of ranking." She cried. She had brought honor to herself in a way that would only make sense to a shikari. "A girl cub... and she is yellow!" She said, looking to Vestip. When the pain came, her face was less tense.

CoffeeHe watched his.... cubs mother as she seemed to cry out in happiness and he couldn't help but chuckle. Nope. He didn't understand any of what she was saying. But as her face contorted again, his brows furrowed and he watched in shock as yet another was born. Just how many? He gathered this one up, and with Mawu's help, they uncovered her and saw her colors. There was his red! His firey red that got him into a lot of trouble. But she was so dark. What would Mawu think of this one? "Another girl, Mawu..."
splitpersonalityumoShe leaned over to look at her and though her cry was not as joyous as before, she was pleased regardless. "A girl... she will be my rank but look at the spirit colors that tried desperately to come through. She has red, a bright and powerful color. She is so close to being high ranked, but I am glad for I will have a girl cub to be with me always!" She said soflty, leaning against Vestip. He did not want to be there in his heart but-she appreciated it in whole. As her body controted again, another girl was born. http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll46/SoA_Stuff/Breedings/May 09/Mawu5.png

CoffeeVestip licked the top of her head and nuzzled her carefully as a fifth cub was born. So many girls! Where there to be any more boys? Helping clean this female off, he noticed her white and beautiful colors. Where the orange came from, he didn't know, but she had many of his markings, including the stockings. With a grin, the male licked Mawu's muzzle and gave her an encouraging purr. Somewhere in his heart, he'd love these cubs. Even if he didn't show it. And Mawu was gaining a place as well.
splitpersonalityumoShe smiled, looking to the pale cub. Also her ranking but, the opposite colors though. A lovely bunch of children, beautiful and ranging. She smiled, though her pain had not stopped. She chuckled, looking to vestip as the pain started to come again. "There are more dear.
splitpersonalityumo She wrenched her face as another child came into the world. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/Catrose/My pets/SoA/BuffytheBloodycustom.png and before she could even take a breath another came almost instantly. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/Catrose/My pets/SoA/kisikusikucub.png
CoffeeVestip blinked and then sighed at that, shaking his head as he nuzzled against her again, wanting to ease any of the pain he could. There were -more- and Vestip thought he wasn't fertile. This was some joke, wasn't it? As the other two were born, his brows furrow and he gathered them both up and helped to clean them. Each of them were dark. He knew Mawu wouldn't be happy by the reaction to the first dark cub. Still, they had wings, and the darkets had many of his markings. There was absolutely no doubt he was their father. "....You ok...?"
splitpersonalityumoShe smiled at her two daughters, so similar in colors and markings that she could not help but chuckle. Twins. She could care less about their colors. more girls to be by her side all her life and keep her company. She wrapped herself around the cubs, her head lowering to her paws. "I am alright." She said softly. "but look at all of them"
CoffeeAnd Vestip was. With his two different colored eyes, he took in the really oddly colored litter and shook his head. "We sure cooked up some interesting things," he muttered, resting his head on her own, tail curling to touch the closest cub he could. Well, fatherhood was something he'd have to get used too, that was for sure.
splitpersonalityumoShe sighed, very tired and sleepy, warm from him and their bodies and their soft cub noises. She leaned against him, her eyes shutting as she sighed, about to fall asleep. "They are beautiful. Thank you vestip." She said softly before her breathing became soft and she drifted into sleep.
CoffeeAt the thanks, he felt something in him soften a bit more as he closed his eyes part of the way, watching his cubs have their first taste of milk from their mother's teets. It was a pretty sight, he supposed. He'd never seen anything like it, that was for sure. With the sound of her breathing, and the warmth he felt spreading through him, it wasn't much longer before Vestip fell asleep with her, keeping close.
