Practice, McCloud. It's just practice. Even though you weren't even sure when you were gonna ask her and this is a totally different-- Practice. Come on.

... [a slight huff, above a sudden noise of what seems to be a combination of puppy noises and children's squealing]

Anyone else get two of 'em?

T-Two?! [pauses] I wish you the best of luck then.

[wolfisdumb]

Yep, twins. Thanks, Emil.

How're you doing?

[eightpacts]

Mm. You're welcome, Fox.

Ah, well...I got a toddler too, though I'm not paired up with anyone. She's more than a handful by herself, so I couldn't imagine having to take care and watch over two.

[wolfisdumb]

[Jokingly] Want one of these?

["Daddy!!" "Not nice, Daddy!"]

I was kidding, kidding! Gah-- d-don't pull on that-- yow!

[eightpacts]

W-Well, I'd rather...

[Stops when he hears the commotion at the other end and quietly chuckles. Lana, Emil's little girl, decides to comment on those noises, "Daddy, Daddy! What's happenin'?"]

N-Nothing. ...I hope.

F-Fox?! Are you okay?

[wolfisdumb]

NO tail pulling! Especially Dad's! [some more childish giggling here as the twins tumble off of him..]

Yeah, I'm fine. ...They're pretty hyperactive, I gotta say.

[eightpacts]

Heh...

I guess kids aren't really kids if they're not, right?

["A tail?" A squeal. "Is it a fluffy tail?"]

[wolfisdumb]

Right... [a laugh] If I ever settle down, though, I'm hoping I end up with a quiet one...

[More squealing on this end- maybe some yipping-- "Daddy's tail!" "My other daddy- he don't have a fuffy tail, but his hair... is fuffy!" Oh, toddler talk...]

[eightpacts]

Wouldn't having a quiet baby ruin the..er..experience of raising a child?

[chuckle]

But I understand.

As for me...I think it's still too early for me to be thinking about things like that.

["Boo. My daddy don't have a fluffy tail too. But his kitty does!" Girly giggles follow.]
