Jaxxon hadn't been able to sleep and he'd hoped the children had, so he crept away towards the borders to do a Midnight check for his Wife. Maybe she had decided to come home under the guise of Midnight, so he traipsed along them trying to pick up a new scent from her. He didn't find any, but quickly caught the scent of Magnolia rushing past him and into the night across the borders.

He blinked for a second before he took chase and raced after her. She didn't get too far away when he called out to her with a sharp bark, Mag! He would cry, his eyes worried and bloodshot from lack of sleep. Jaxxon felt legs pump quickly below him as he attempted to try and get his daughter to slow to a stop. He hated running.

He watched as she slowed and he did too, he trotted to catch up to her walking form and came to walk beside her. He aimed to catch his breath as she snarled a Papa, under her breath, a sound that was almost lost in Mythris' winds. He skewed up his face as her words but let them slide as he sighed and looked at her tall form. Damn she'd really grown, tall like himself and growing heavier and stockier by the day. If he weren't so concerned for her right now he might have been proud.

Watchya runnin' for? He questioned her, tilted his head to the side as the male blinked in curiosity. He had a feeling it was coming, the question of where mom went and why, he wasn't ready for it though. He smiled a little, hoping to lighten her mood with playing out a mask of his own.

He was hoping she wouldn't ask though, and he could avoid the situation and those questions entirely, but he knew better, he knew Magnolia better than that. Come'on, stop. He'd tell her, stopping his own steps as he would wait for her to pause her own and answer his question. He wouldn't frown yet, wouldn't scowl just yet, he'd wait for that. Too early and he might scare her off.

She did stop when he told her to, he was thankful for that, but suddenly, in the silence that hung between them, she reeled on him. Whirling around to face him as she snarled in his face, her teeth bared and her eyes narrowed at him in anger.

She growled out that someone had to look for her mother and Jaxxon's face dropped. If he could have gone as pale as a ghost he would have, his eyes fell from hers to his paws and he felt his shoulders fall.

Jaxxon sighed, a heavy exhale as he turned away from her rage, he wasn't trying to shield himself from it, merely hide from it. The male let silence hang for a moment more before he spoke, his tones low and dismayed. That's not your job. Jaxx stated lowly, he turned back to face her.

She had really fucking grown, and he could see that in the way she was able to stand face to face with him and not be on her toes. He wanted to shake his head, tell her he was proud of her, gush over the size of her now and her growth in skills… But he knew now was not the time.

I’m going to go, I just hadn't told you yet, she left because of me, I have to go, I have to find her. The Einvald explained vaguely, leaving things open to interpretation for the young one. She really was too young to know what happened, not to mention the details might turn her away. He really hoped he didn't have to divulge anything to anybody about it honestly.
