Jack thought about it for a moment and then shrugged, chuckling, "You know I'm not sure really, but he has shaggy fur all over himself, I figure he'll know best how to take care of one when it all comes down to it. He does have a short haired pup, he told me about her, and I think he'll do well." She thought about Bors for a moment and smiled, he was a big, good guy, and she knew he would appreciate if she managed to get a pup that would work best for him at this point she knew with a laugh.
Phantom pranced about and smiled with her mouth open at the two people as Jack started to move down the hallway. She was ready to get this done and over with, if only so she could have more pups. It seemed her Houluh were as interested in doing this as she was, she thought.

Briar blinked. He didn't know what he expected, but the notion of getting a shaggy pup for a shaggy person hadn't really occurred to him. He tried, briefly, to imagine it, but he had too poor an understanding of what an Uthax looked like. He could identify one if he saw one, if only because their appearance was so distinct, but to conjure one up from memory was beyond him.
He ought to say something, he thought, but nothing came to him. He didn't know enough about the other party or Houluh in general to make some useful comment, and empty pleasantries felt cheap coming from someone like himself. -Which room are we in?- he said instead. They may as well move to the room itself now that the paperwork was done. Better that Joker made a nuisance of himself in a contained space than having him bolting around the halls much longer.

Glancing over at him, she saw his expression and winced a little, was this poor thought of hers? There was no guarantee they were going to get what she wanted out of this breeding as well, she might end up with a pup instead of Bors, and that was fine as well, though it was kind of... not what she was expecting and hoping for. Giving a little sigh, trying to keep it quiet enough for Briar not to hear and then smiled and motioned to the door Phantom was sitting beside, "I believe that's the room, though I think that's where she and I were last time as well."
It was interesting to see that they were going to be in the same room, though she had been in about every room in the Breeding Center over the years of being here and having this as a hobby, she figured with a small wince.

Jack smiled at Briar as she pointed out the room, though she winced not long afterward, so Briar peered into it with some trepidation, wondering if there was something wrong with it. Had it not been cleaned after its last use...? But no, as far as he could see, it seemed just as clean as any of the rooms he had used in the handful of occasions where he had come here with one or another of his Houluh. He hesitated a moment longer, but seeing as she hadn't said anything, he supposed there was nothing for it but to bring his own Houluh in.
Joker liked to romp about like an untrained thing, but he still came when Briar gave him the signal, and once Briar himself stepped into the room, it wasn't difficult at all to get him to come in. He trotted around the perimeter, sniffing around and exploring the new space.

She didn't expect people to notice her expressions, though she should when it came to certain people she believed now. Briar seemed to be one of those people who watched everything, and she couldn't necessarily blame him, it was a frightening place in the Labs sometimes, you had to watch your back sometimes and she didn't know if that was what was going on in his head too or not. Smiling, she reached out to gently pat his shoulder if he let her, though she wouldn't be surprised if he dodged out of the way. "Alright! Well I guess we just wait now, huh?" she offered with a kind smile.
Phantom bolted into the room as well after Joker and dashed around as best as she could, wondering if there was anything new in the room or not. This was the best part, she figured with a low woof, and she hoped that they would have some good pups.

Briar tensed when Jack reached over to touch him, though he let it happen, and willed himself to relax as much as he could. Old habits were hard to shake, and even if he knew consciously that there was probably no ill intent behind it... Well. At least they were almost done here.
He was admittedly a little curious as to how the pups would come out. He hadn't seen that many Houluh litters come and go yet, but the results often surprised him, especially if he tried to predict what might come out based on looking at just the parents. By this point he had stopped trying to guess, but it was certainly a curious process all the same.
At least it was Joker's second breeding, so he ought to have a better idea of what he was doing by now. Briar sure hoped that was the case, anyway.
