ROSEMARY ROUX

Rosemary, from a matriarchal coven, always supported the thought that children should remain with their mother whenever possible. Even so, she felt wary about Aphra if only because she never really interacted with the other female and relied on reading Pincher's angry reaction to get a feel as to the cat's capacity as a mother. She eyed the new mother with some degree of annoyance, as though the debate as to custody was beneath all of them. Indeed, the ocelot thought all of these hostile feelings were irrational, given the obvious solution of joint custody. Besides, the kids weren't even old enough to start getting influenced from their parental figures, so this argument seemed a little too early in the making.

"Given how rare it is for the father to even want to look at their offspring, I suggest you let him and the rest of the Roux family help with raising them," Rosemary spoke, her words enhanced by her usual deadpan for once. Her tone and words hardly ever seemed to jive properly, but this occasion marked one of the few times where she found having an icy undertone to her voice helped matters.
