Description
"There are only two Brutalities in life, Rictus. Sickness and Starvation. The kind of defeat you don't take on your feet."
"But the blood... it screamed."
"Life screams when it is taken. But it's taken for the purpose of our own hungry, screaming life. A cause. A beauty. There is nothing to grieve in the blood."
"... I'm not grieving.
"Just... sad."
In the winter following the sickness and the harrowing family separation, a rift had begun to grow between father and son. But what could fix that better than a hunting trip? And so they take to the valley west of the Ithunnwood. Mar hadn't learned gullshit from his father, but that didn't mean he couldn't try to teach Rictus the ways of being a provider, and a protector... and the soft-pawed young he-wolf is sobered by the violence, and his first act of taking a life.
Winter Activity check for Mar and Rictus!

Oh noooo Rictus is so pure. And that Mar actually explains the whole thing to him in a pretty non-judgemental way instead of just being like 'nut up son' or sth. So sweet.

Ahhh honestly this is simultaneously tragic yet sweet. I know my bby boy Rictus is really struggling here with the idea of taking life to survive, but It also warms my heart seeing Mar stepping up to help his son come to terms with it. It might not be in the kindest of words, but he's doing his best for his boy with what he has. I just... *clutches chest*
