Owl's fur bristled, but his nerves calmed at Scarlet's touch. "Nothing is wrong, i'm fine alright?" He snapped. Though Scarlet had calmed him somewhat, his livid demeanor hadn't left.
Ingrid nodded toward the rabbit, signaling Loki to chase it in her direction. She lightly and swiftly maneuvered around the rabbit, finding a hidden spot and waiting for Loki.
OOC: Sorry ive been inactive, school started and its a pain
//IM HERE GUYS IM HERE I WOULDNT LEAVE THIS THREAD I LOVE IT TOO MUCH I JUST GOT CAUGHT UP IN SCHOOL
IC: Owl huffed, and despite knowing very well he was overreacting, this didn't stop his foul mood in the slightest. However Scarlett's presence calmed him, and he pressed his forhead against her furry shoulder, ears pinned back against his head. "I just don't trust him. I just want you to be safe, okay?" He mumbled into her thick fur, pelt flushing in embarrasment. "I could never forgice myself if something happened to you." He added under his breath, so low he was sure she wouldn't catch it.
The rabbit ket out a startled shriek as Ingrid lept from her hiding spot, preparing to make a clean kill. The rabbit, however, was faster and nimbly bolted through her lithe legs. Ingrid, quick to catch up, twisted around and with a powerful leap, she landed square on the rabbit, quick to kill it. She picked up the carcass and padded back over to Loki with a lop sided grin and a goofy expression.
Owl nodded meekly, slightly angry at himself for his previous attitude. His aggression wasn't necessary, but he couldn't keep it down, especially when Scarlet was with another male.
Ingrid grinned. "Tanks! Couldent hab dong it without woo." She said, her voice muffled from the large rabbit it her jaws.
Ingrid huffed with amuesment, "Cheater! You got a head start!" She barked as her feet began propelling her forward. The lithe vixen had to trouble running through the dense forest, and was at Loki's heels in no time.
Owl's head was clogged and foggy, he almost missed Scarlet's voice. "Hmm." He moaned in agreement, not really paying attention. "What are you with Hatchet?" He jumped the gun. He was speaking his mind before they even got to a safe vicinity of prying ears. "Do you like him?"
Owl's ears flattened, oblivious Scarlet's feelings. "Who? Loki? Truth?" He narrowed his eyes, but softended them once he gazed at Scarlet. His heart sped up, but he wasnt sure if it was out of nervousness or fear.
Ingrid lengthened her strides, but she knew Loki had a big enough head start that she wouldn't stand a chance. Not wanting to taste defeat, sje used her momentum to propell herself off the forest floor and onto Loki. She knocked him over, successfully doing so to herself as well. After rolling for a bit, Ingrid began to fear if Loki had gotten hurt. "Are you okay?"
Ingrid's worry grew. "Loki!" She bared, prodding him with her fore-paw. Her heart dropped in fear. "Loki, come on!" She barked again, this time nudging him with her nose.
Owl's heart soared, yet still thundered with anxiety. Of course he loved her too, but finding the words was difficult enough, and they seemed to catch in his throat. He smiled nonetheless. "I-I think i love you too." He murmered, forcing himself to look at her. His mind kept telling him to run away, he didnt want to ruin anything he had with Scarlett, but his heart made him stay.
Ingrid shrieked in suprise, her heart pounding. But when her visiom focused on Loku's form looming above her, she couldn't help but pout. "Loki, you scared me! I thought I hurt you!" However, his grin couldnn't keep her amgry. Her lips formed a smile. "You flea brain!"
Owl licked between Scarlett's ears, a somewhat pleasurefilled rumble forming in his throat. "I couldn't think of anything better. Especially with you, Scarlett." He rested his chin atop her head and closed his eyes in contentment.
"Of course it is, you flea bag. Don't undervalue yourself." She said with an amuesed smirk, prodding him on his furry chest with her fore-paw.
Ingrid shrieked in surprise, pelt fluffing up. Her fur spiked aling her spine, making her appear like a porcupine. She whipped her head in each direction, a frown tugging at her lips. "Risk! Not funny!" She barked, though she still laughed a bit. She shook her pelt clear of the debris Risk's wings had spread.
"You'll be an amazing mother, and i'm sure the pack will be delighted at the thought of pups." He said with a grin. His amber eyes lit up like the sun on a cloudless day at the thought of becoming a father and spending his life by Scarlett's side.
OOC; one marina meets everyone, i think we should time skip a little ways, maybe just enough so Scarlett's belly is noticeably larger 
IC: Ingrid rolled her eyes playfully. "Do you need us?" She inquired, tilting her head to the side. She wondered why Risk had flew in, other than to scare them of course. Her bi colored eyes gleamed with curiosity; she had smelled a forgeign scent, and she thought it may have to do with Risk's arrival.
Owl grinned and nudged her playfully. "Don't be shy." He teased, lowering his front and wriggling his hind quarters in the air playfully. His fluffy tail waved around to match his goofy expression. "You're my mate now, you don't have to be shy around me," Owl said, looking at her with a warm gleam in his amber eyes.
Owl grinned and buried his face in her fur, taking a deep, content breath. Her scent filled his nostrils amd he felt himself grinning even more. "I love you," he murmered, his voice somewhat muffled.
Ingrid blinked at the thought of this so called Marina and Truth. "Little Truth babies, hmm? What do you think about that, Loki?" She asked with amuesment, giving his shoulder a playful nudge.
(I cant wait for the pups! They'll be so cute!)
Owl was near Scarlett, keeping a watchful eye on her growing belly. It seemed he was more concerned about the pregnancy and everything working smoothly more than Scarlett. He was constantly nagging her to rest and relax, no matter her protests. His orangey fur was sparkling in the sunlight, and he felt his tensed muscles relax slightly. Soon there would be pups tugging all over his ears amd tail.
Ingrid was sprawled out in the sunlight, sighing in happiness as the warm rays heated her silvery and white pelt. Her bi colored eyes were closed, and in a light doze, she felt the serene peace of being surrounded by her friends.
Ingrid's ears moved to wherever sound was coming from, and though her eyes were closed, she managed to pick up on the conversations. "Just think, in a very short time from now, there'll be little Owls and Scarletts jumping about," Ingrid hummed with a grin, her eyes still closed.
"I'm not worrying, I'm just- making sure nothing happens and keeping you under extreme supervision,"
He subsituted, a small grin forming on his maw. "I can't let anything happen to you, or the pups."
OOC: Should we determine the sex and how many pups there'll be? And maybe who might want to rp them?
Ingrid rolled over on her back, humming in satisfaction as the sun warmed her belly. Maybe I'll have pups one day, she thought, but for now, she was happy in the pack with Scarlett's bundles of joy on the way.
Owl lay down beside Scarlett, occasionaly brushing his pelt against hers in a way to reassure him that she was stoll there, and safe. "What do you think they'll look like? How many will here be?" His mind kept wandering, eyes filled with hope and joy.
Ingrid had fallen back into her doze, completely oblivious and unaware of her surroundings. Had Ingrid been alone or with any other foxes, she felt sleeping so casually and freely would have been out of the question. However she trusted her friends with her life, and wasn't afraid to lean on them for support.
Owl smiled, "Thanks Risk, but I still cant help but worry. Its like I'm the one carrying pups," Owl said with a haldhearted, lopsided smile. He scooted closed to his mate and wrapped his bushy tail around hers.
Owl's ears pinned back against his head in alarm. "Ingrid!" He snapped, eyes blazing with both fear and determination. He bent his head low, next to Scarlett's. "Hey, we're gonna be parents!" He whispered gleefully, hoping to take her mind off the pain. He licked between her ears in rhythmic strokes, neck fur bristled in anticipation.
Ingrid's eyes shot open at a howl of pain, ad Owl's call only confirmed her suspicions. The pups were coming. She rose to her paws in a fit of hurry and rushed over to the birthing vixen. "Loki, go get the others and find me a decent sized stick that wont snap under a lot of pressure!" She commanded, eyes narrowing in concentration. She used a fore-paw to feel Scarlett's belly, the contractions rippling Scarlett's muscles under her grasp.
OOC: how many pups should they have? I know i want to rp one, anyone else?
Ingrid took the stick and placed it between Scarlett's jaws. "Bite down, it's only going to get worse," She mumbled. Her paws poked and prodded at the vixen's belly. "Three, I think," she growled lowly in concentration.
Owl hesitated with the lavender, but ate it nontheless. His heart swelled at Ingrid's words. "Three?"
Owl's heart wrenched in suffering for his mate's pain. "It'll be over soon, I promise, just hold on." He spoke softly, continuously licking her between her ears to soothe her.
Ingrid growled in concentration. "Scarlett, I need you to push, but don't wear yourself out just yet. The first one is on its way."
OOC: ill take a male pup, what about the rest of you? And I'd like for mine to have a disability in his hind leg and maybe be the runt
Ingrid felt Scarlett's belly once more with a confused expression. "Four," she murmured, "four pups, not three." She said louder, her eyes flickering over to Owl. "Youre halfway, Scarlett, you can do this." Ingrid let out a satisfied hum as the third pup was born, and placed it beside its siblings after giving it a few quick licks until a small cry sounded from its puny body. "One more."
Owl smiled, "Four pups, Scarlett," he nuzzled into her neck fur and whispered sweet nothings, hoping to calm her down. He licked her muzzle in a soothing, rhythmic pattern.
OOC: my pup will be male, what about yours?
INgrid breathed a sigh of relief, shoulders hunched over in exhaustion. Though she hadnt been the one birthing any kits, the stress of a vixen birthing was enough to drive her to the edge. "I'll let the new family settle down. I'll be back soon to check up on you and the babies." Ingrid smiled and padded off to sit below and shaded tree. She plopped down and rested her head on her paws.
Owl couldnt keep the grin from his face. "Four beautiful kits." He whispered, curling his body around hers and resting his head on her shoulder. His eyes shown with admiration for both his mate and kits.
