WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — Jacob didn't spend enough time with Harrison. It was a fact that'd bothered him ever since his son's return. He wanted to be around, really, but it felt like he was pulled away every moment for some kind of crisis or project. He just wanted everyone to be safe and happy and healthy but, unfortunately, that meant he'd spend considerably less time with Harrison. So, when he noticed his boy calling for someone to play with, the husky decided that whatever he was doing could wait as he made his way over with a wide smile and his tail swaying gently behind him. "I'd love ta' play with ya', Harry. What'd ya' 'ave in mind for all ah' us?" he asked. He was glad to see Harry out and talking to everyone again. After everything that'd happened with his biological mother, he worried that he'd be frightened to go out and connect with them all again but it seemed all was well. Still, that didn't stop Jacob from checking on him nearly every moment, quietly making sure he knew where Harry was at all times just in case. Just in case. He hated those words. He wanted to live somewhere where he never had to say them again. Where they never had to do anything just in case because there would be no way for anyone to hurt them. But, unfortunately, even here in Snowbound there were dangers he still had to protect his friends and family and himself from. So today there was a 'just in case'.  —A GREAT HONOR TO HOLD YOU UP
