Unlike the other members within her pack she was willing to help the boy understand what was going on around him. He had mentioned before he wanted to understand, to be like others, and she made a promise to help him achieve that goal. He would not be perfect, but if he could understand even the most smallest or trivial things then she could at least consider it a success. This was just a simple game something they could do together and in the meantime perhaps she could at least get him familiar with some letters and numbers. It was a good start. With an encouraging smile she leaned her shoulder into his own for a moment, attempting to keep him settled down as he huffed and muttered. Feeling an unfamiliar soft pressure on her shoulder the woman flinched, unexpectedly looking to her left and seeing the older woman lean towards her. Shifting herself closer to the woman she listened to the murmured praise and Raven couldn't help, but give the woman a sad small smile.

Never before had she thought of the possibility of having a family of her own. The ability to have a mate, let alone children, seemed entirely impossible when she lived within her old pack. There was not a time when she imagined what her ideal male companion would be. She couldn't hear the church bells ringing or what type of wedding dress she would wear. Let alone imagine what her future children would look like. Would they have her untamable hair, would they have his nose, would she have to prepare for the possibility that one would turn out to be like her and go feral at any time? She couldn't see her life like that. In the back of her mind she recalled Tobias uttering a promise that one day he would ask her to marry him and she would accept it without hesitation. But the idea of including children was impossible.

They wouldn't be capable of having their own children. Although they were Weres they were not of the same species and so they could not have children. Of course, Raven had no idea that the possibility was absolutely real, and so she truly believed that they would not have children. Tobias already had children and Nadya sent them away. If Raven did have any children, unlike Nadya, Raven would trust that their children would be taken well care of in the pack. She was sure Tobias would have been a very good Father. Unable to tell Maureen that the possibility was not there, finding it unnecessary to explain, she simply offered her a sad smile and nodded her head. Hearing Tobias' demand that she should tell the announcer which letter and number to call out caused her to grin, politely explaining that she could do no such thing.

"I can't tell him which one to call, you see that wheel with the white balls, when he winds the wheel a white ball comes out with the letter and number to call...it is random."

It was the sound of another woman hollering 'Bingo' that caused the smile on Raven's face to disappear. In its place was a frown, the girl all to aware that her companion was not good with dealing a loss. Quickly she put her hand over his, coiling it around as her eyes searched through his mangy dark locks to find his own dark eyes. Worried she muttered softly hoping to delight him in knowing that not all was truly lost...they could have another chance.

"Tobi, it is okay if we didn't win we can always try again, please stay."

However, it was no use. Already he began to stand and she quickly unraveled her hand from his own not really wanting to be dragged around. As he uttered his opinion on the game she gave a worried look to Maureen and George muttering her apologies as she politely excused herself from the table. As Tobias made a beeline towards her she held her ground and when he got close her hands quickly snatched his wrists and she leaned her head into his chest, keeping her grip on his wrists firm. As the other people began to laugh finding the display humorous there was no friendly grin on her face when she looked up at him speaking gently, and yet with a firm tone.

"Tobi you cannot steal the prize just because you didn't win. Please return the prize to the waitress behind you and say you are sorry. We can always play Bingo again and try to win or we could leave and go somewhere else?"

With the chance to play the game again she grinned up at him hoping he would follow what she asked. It would be difficult for him to return the gift in his hand and apologize, but she trusted him he would at least try. Releasing her hold on him she would allow him to make his own decision. Would he attempt her request or ignore her completely. Either way she did not want him to steal the prize.
