(A little Recap without pretty Character Templates, then my reply when I finish the table <3. Just a little insight of what happened behind the scenes to get Gullveig.)
Fhaoli had been a little bit apprehensive about taking Faded near his home; when he first met her he could see that she was a nice enough fae, and he didn't want an introduction to his family to serve as very blunt aversion therapy. Nevertheless, she seemed determined to dive into an adventure and sure enough this trip was to be one. The journey towards his home was not entirely perilous per se, but finding a dwelling carved into the heart of a mountain did have it's down sides. The much needed cover of trees was replaced by cold stone, the warmth of the sun clogged by high cliffs so that all below was washed in a steely grey light. Home was where the heart was though, and it was all Fhaoli had ever known to speak of. As far as the pair had covered ground for the time being, the wealth of nature was still very much at their disposal and white blanketed green lay before, behind and around them. He was riding abreast to the petite fae through a swatch of trees and brush, pondering what would make a fine enough meal for them to keep their energies up.
Faded kept by Fhaoli's rump as he moved towards the pack of his birthing. She was an arctic, and in the end her body would be warmer then his as his grey wolf fur was to take to his spring sheading sooner or later and her arctic one, not so much. Even though it was highly knowledged that Faded was at least part something else. Blind to the misknowledge of her parents however, Fhaoli would probably just see her as a arctic/grey halfer like her father and not the triple threat she really was. She could feel the edge of the forests to the north under her paws and then it happened. Her heating struck and she began to become a little weaker. "If we don't.. go hunting for something my body may start making me spot on the snow.." She admitted and shied a little from his rump-area.
Fhaoli knew the most direct route home well enough, it was staring them in the fact after all - the mountain straight before them, seemingly looming closer with every step they took. They had a trek ahead of them before they were anywhere near it's shadow though, but even now he could feel the urgent tug towards it. The welcome of his wolves, both warm and cold. Familiarity and purpose is what he returned to, and that is largely all that mattered to him. He made his peace with what service his life would provide a long time ago, and he would never stray from what his heart and mind dictated. Musing on all of this, his eyes purposefully on the task ahead, it took him a while to wake to Faded's words and he turned to her and blinked as he slowed ever so. "Oh, of course. It was ill thought of me, I had never considered your current predicament. Are you feeling quite alright, or would you like to rest awhile whilst I find us something to eat?" his earnest brown eyes blinked to her, the male perfectly willing to take a short moment in the trees to allow her to feel more comfortable and fetch a rabbit or some easy game.
Faded huffed a little. "I have never been one for land game and hunting.. Would you mind just knabbing it?" She had to settle under a brush for a moment. Her body beginning to ooze the scent but she tried her best to conceal it. She was feelign a little sick as well and hadn't had the time to eat the night prior before they left. She looked behind them at the paw prints that lead them back to Earthensong. She hadn't been this far north ever and was silently happy that this first time would be with Fhaoli. Her eyes glimmered up to him and she chuckled a little. "I can't wait till Spring comes and it dies down a little." She said in a softer vocal.
Fhaoli nodded kindly and smiled to her, bowing his head and gesturing to wherever she might have taken to lay and rest for a time. "Of course, I will only be a short while. Take all the time you need", he told her. As he was preparing to leave, snuffling through the weaker snow to try and find out what had been where and when, his ears twitched to her words and he lifted his head to look at her. "I have never known what a hinderance it can be, but the females in my own home are often irritated by it", he chuckled lightly and then cleared his throat, nodding himself out and slipping away. All the while he was searching for something to slaughter - and quickly - he pondered on whether she may have come because she felt she needed to, or because her desire was so great. It was only a fleeting consideration, but he didn't want her to feel forced to do anything she needn't... From the way she acted though, he thought he was a decent enough judge to conclude which was the right answer. True to his word, he returned in half an hour or so. "I would have come back sooner, but I had to scout a short way to find the blasted thing", he informed her before dropping the limp rabbit ceremoniously in front of her. It was neither overly plump nor desperately thin; it would suffice, he thought. For her, at least. Smiling, he stood before her.
