Though it's only been a mere couple months since their birth, he still mourned the still-birthed siblings of the ones he was guarding this morning while @Ira could go stretch her legs for a bit. Their little bodies not drinking in the air to breathe life into them, now perhaps not even bones could be left with how small and fragile they were...
In all honesty he wasn't curious enough to check.
Even if they weren't his children, or Ira's (which somehow made it worse than it being his kids, it was the fact they were Ira's that hurt him far worse). Still he hadn't been able to come around to talk to her about it all. Nor was he certain if he could, forget wondering if Ira even wanted to talk about it.
Though he mourned them, Hieronymous wouldn't waste their newest litter's youngest years mourning. There was a fragile balance he could manage, and somehow, he made it work. Today he thought about them, while babysitting for the living remaining ones. Katja between his forearms while he gave her a little bath. Her siblings to the side to keep his peripherals trained on them all the while doing his fatherly duties.
“Hold still little one,” He'd be annoyed if it wasn't so damn cute.
