Kaliska nodded. "Okay. Ready?" She asked.
[rule]
Barrett looked disgusted. "That's disgusting." He growled. "I really like you Myrna, and I can't believe they would do a thing like that to you!" He exclaimed, growling.

Braxton strapped himself into the double harness, and gave a mighty heave. The plow started to move quickly.
"Yes my love." He kissed her then held her hand as they walked to the teleport boosting area, which were sporadiacally placed throughout each settlement on the planet.

Myrna blinked at him. "That is sweet of you to think so... but I never expected anyone to be that angry about it... You may be grieving, but you act like a grouchy Shandor." Myrna furrowed her brow. "There were almost 20,000 of us on that list." She sat opposite him. "It wasn't just me... and it is over now." She gently touched his arm. "Are you okay Barrett?"

"That's better." Ferris threw his weight into it. Digging his hooves in. After they had gone a ways. Ferris let out a grunt as he spoke. "Jaz is fortunate to have you as her father."
Kaliska smiled, looking up happily at her husband.
[rule]
Barrett instantly blushed. "Oh.. yeah. I'm.. I'm fine." he gave a sheepish smile, looking down.
[rule]
Braxton kept his eyes ahead. "Glad you think so. I have a different point of view though." he grunted, shaking his head.
He kissed her lips then holding her had teleported just outside town. A few minutes walk to Myrna's.

"Though I am not quite used to that.. I am flattered that you think that much of me." She leaned her head to look at him, folding her hands in her lap.

"I can think of worse stallions. I grew up in the first Branch under Kraken. A lot of aggressive Nordic descendants there. I refuse to accept the trait it passes down. I disclaim my fathers heritage." He felt the plow catch on a rock or something but kept pulling.
Kaliska picked up pace, eager to see Myrna. She walked to the door. "C'mon slowpoke!" She teased Brenk then knocked on the door.
[rule]
Barrett smiled, then turned to look at the door when someone knocked.
[rule]
"Connor...... Right?" Braxton asked tentatively. He slacked off the straps, then shoved against them to keep the plow moving.
Brenk trotted up behind her and gave her a lve smack on the rear while laughing.
Myrna got up. "I will be ight back." She grinned then opened the door. "Hey Kaliska!" She squeezed her. "Hello my brother."
Brenk nodded with a smile. "You look beautiful in that dress sis."
Myrna hoped Kaliska would not freak out on her one he saw who was there. "Geuss what.. someone is taking me to the festivities." She bit her lower lip with an excited smile. Se gestured towards the living room.

"Yes.... can't forget his name either since he etched it into me.. I was 12 when he did that... got out of there by 15... at the cost of 2 other lives." Ferris lost his footing but regained then tucked his haunches under for a good shove into the harness.
