The child's brother and while he could understand the relationship, he didn't care one wit for the two. Adorable, yes. But now was not the time! [color=Olive}"I am something of a guard, I guess you could say. I'm merely here for sake of my own sister. You might know her... Tall, keeps shifting into different animals, perchant for wearing beads and feathers in her hair?"[/color] And right over there, he noted as he noticed his sister stalk from the palor, looking eager almost to rip into any potential enemies. Now what had woken up Ayita's temper? What had riled the woman to embrace the hunt, or was it just that time of the month? Or was the pregnant? Richard stiffened as Tatl and Tael's words became white noise to him. Ayita pregnant was a [i]horrifying[/i] thought. He was too young yet to be an Uncle, let alone her a mother! Surely Damon and her hadn't been so foolish? Allison was with her, so perhaps their local witchy woman might know? Running through a list of all the potential pregnant traits belonging to birds, various mammals and humans Richard stared at the wall ahead of him in slight horror at the possibility. It couldn't be could it? Surely there had to be something wrong? Something that was said? An old nightmare? That was it! That had to be it.

Stunned from her rage and pain for those brief moments. [color=ForestGreen]"You are the only one."[/color] The shifter agreed though the words carried more their own weight as her mind gently brushed against Allison's, it wasn't a invasive thought but one that conveyed the sense of love and affection that Ayita felt towards her. When words failed, the sharing of her meaning was sometimes the best thing to do. Pushing herself up off the couch, Ayita wrapped a long arm about Allison's shoulders to pull her close. Her head rest onto of the woman's blonde hair. [color=ForestGreen]"I will speak to Brother later about this. He will need to know, but not before time has cooled it enough that I will hold back his rage."[/color] For Richard would rage and most likely at the one he held in the greatest disdain which was Marygold. Ayita, as it was currently, was sorely tempted to let him but the team didn't deserve that. Nor did Guin who Richard cared for. Looking towards the sound of a craft, her amber eyes narrowed as she urged Allison toward the door to the palor. [color=ForestGreen]"Someone has come."[/color] There was still an defeated slump to the woman's shoulders and a hurt look in her eyes as she made for the patio outside where she heard the ship. [color=ForestGreen]"We should see who it is who treads on our territory."[/color] Ayita wished she had her bow, and thought she might make like her brother did to have a ranged weapon on her always. But then again, Richard was wise in the ways of gun and she was not so fond of the foolish weaponry human's were constantly debating over.
