Bright, friendly, full of love and life and all too often he felt the exact opposite in all of that. He tended to the darker, morbid things in life, so for this vibrant doe to come into his life and sweep him away had been a strange feeling, and it left him unsettled in some of the best ways.

When he found out that they were going to be parents, he wondered a little if perhaps the Swamp had been wrong, because he felt like he was flying in the sky with the eagles and other birds with this news. In fact he was so happy, he promised the pretty, feathery acha he'd travel to secure a blessing for their offspring. He'd seen one once, in passing. So he knew they were around it was just a matter of finding one. He promised to come back, because he wanted to see what their children looked like, and to help her out while they grew.

Once he made sure Fat Chicken was settled with food he left in search of a legendary, hoping it wouldn't take long.

Image Guardian of Life felt the determined pull and it was surprisingly close to where she had been already, having gone on a small excursion to help find a few things for the tribe. Abandoning her search she instead went towards the pull eyeing the dragon like kimeti stalking through the swamp with a fierce look on his face. She knew some might be intimidated by him, but she instead stepped into his path, staring down at him. "I can sense you're looking for someone like me. I take it you're going to be a parent?"

Looking up at the mare he was surprised by her tall stature, and how unafraid of him he seemed. That had been another thing that had drawn him to the acha waiting for his return. Her lack of fear around him, or due to him. Giving a surprised nod, he finally found his voice. "That's right, I am. Fat Chicken is waiting for me to come back and see our child, or children and help out for a time." he wouldn't just leave. Nor would he stay long term. Just long enough.

There was an understanding nod, and Guardian began to walk alongside him, quietly urging him to walk along with her. "Your sense of need was strong, determined. I'm going to guess you know what it is you're wanting for a blessing for your offspring?" she would be surprised if he didn't in the end. But, it did happen that way at times she was aware.

---

"I know exactly what I would like to ask for, but if you feel it's not fitting then I don't mind too much if you adjust it to be more proper." at least he was willing to concede if needed. "I'd like to ask that our offspring is as determined in their life as I am, but as open, caring and wonderful as their mother. She gives much of herself, and I not as much as I would like. I hope for them to be a mix..."

---

"Then, may the MotherFather bless your offspring to be able to find a wonderful balance in their lives. To know when to be sweet and giving, or strong and determined as needed, and to always care for those they feel strongly about no matter which way they need to act at the time."

---

"Thank you, I can't wait to get back and tell her." the buck smiled brightly, feeling more relaxed, and with a nod of his head he turned back the way he'd come, anxious to return to the vibrant chicken waiting for him.
