"I hold no quarral with the lights." Malik spoke slowly, watching the female as she nudged the pup. Sensative things. He remembered being a pup and how heavily things seemed to be directed at him. Malik growled softly, not in anger but in frustrated resolution. He quickly snatched up the pup by the scruff and trotted off quickly after the female. I'm losing my mind...taking care of this thing.
This time with his tail slightly lowered, Malik curved around to cut off Astarael from her path and dropped Yuuni infront of her. "She will join." He gently pushed the pup closer to Astarael's large paws with one of his own. He sat, curling his tail around his rump. Now you wouldn't be able to tell at first that he was blind in one eye unless you studied very closely, but he kept his head turned slightly to the left so his right eye was able to watch Astarael for her reaction. Of course if Yuuni joined it was obvious he would follow. He could not hunt for the both of them for long and she would require more food than a hare a day to grow properly.

Yuuni heard t he voices, but they seemed to be drifting from a far away place. She was far too absorbed in her own sudden depression to notice the world around her moving on.
Lights will not accept you... Don't want.. young compaion.. hurt.. Her thoughts were only lightly gathered, picking out a note now and then, but not enough to carry a tune. Yuuni winced at this thought the fae had spoken of. Lights couldn't accept wolves like her. Without a pack, her and Malik wouldn't last long. She knew that much. But yet, without Malik, Yuuni would be done for without a question, and that seemed to be what was happening.
To make it all worse, Malik, whom she loved like he honestly was her father, seemed to be abandoning her. She was a burden to him. He had to focus on protecting Yuuni. Yuuni shut her eyes harder, straining the muscles around her eye as much as the weak pup could. She didn't want to be a burden.
Suddenly, Yuuni felt a soft nudge. She looked up, startled. ...Her...? ...Why...? she thought, not understanding why this fae would show kindness to her. She stared wide eyed, and the tears seemed to pause momentarily. The fae walked off, and at Malik's words of how words affected her, she closed her eyes, dropping hear head and ears, in shame. She thought she shouldn't be so sensitive. Maturity is something Yuuni lacked, and knew she would need to develop. Again, the words being spoken drifted from Yuuni's mind, coming from some distant location. Yuuni hardly noticed as she was taken by the scruff. She didn't dare look at Malik, purely out of shame for her immaturity. She needed to be stronger.
"She will join," the words rang through her head. Was Malik not coming with her? She now had the guts to look at Malik, straight in the eyes, whether he returned her gaze or not. Wide eyed and open mouthed yet again, she just sat staring. Then, as she was pushed towards the fae, she closed her mouth and tried to hold a more serious face.
Don't worry, Yuuni.. Malik has an idea, he knows what he's doing.. Malik knows best for me.

Astarael's cranium tilted slightly to the side. She will join eh? So that made it...what a pack of duo? Oh just great. Now she had the child at her side. Her ears flicked in annoyance but she nodded in acceptance. For the moment she needed all that she could get. "And you?" She mumbled in curiosity before she bent down and picked up the pup. Well, if the young one was her's now she'd take care of it and that was all that mattered she guessed. She wasn't sure how they'd fair against the Lights but at least she could offer the child a place to reside and hopefully some food. And that was about it for her motherly instincts. At least the girl tried?
OOC : Sorry, tad short. Sorry for being gone too. I moved XD

Malik quickly rose, tensing when Astarael picked Yuuni up. What else would she do? Well he didn't expect her to carry the pup, but have her follow and keep up as he had done. His muscles relaxed and once more sat back down with his tail curled around him. He remained in that position, silent as he let the soft breeze play around him. He listened to the branches creaking, leaves rustling, and the rabbits scuttling about in the undergrowth. What he was really listening for was his Self, the true Malik that would guide him to or away from this decision. At long last he answered, "I will stay with the pup...until she no longer needs me."
He slowly uncurled his tail from around him and rose to all fours. "Unless you wish for me to leave, so you two may....bond..?" Malik twisted about slightly, raising one paw as if to leave.
