"yea, he's as good looking as any selkie pup could be." Max beamed with the pride of being a new father. He admired and awed at the tiny pup, stroking his back while the pup got ready to take his first meal - only to be startled by Irvin pushing the pup away. He held the pup's back to hold it, taking his bum and now the 'mother' and pup was no longer touching. "Why is that... oh, is the contractions building up again?" Max looked at Irvin with mild confusion. To him all babies were like that and it never occurred to him there could be difficulty for the human to accept a pup not looking like a human baby. "I'll take him out Irvin... will return to you in a second." Max 'thoughtfully' removed the pup, which was still whimpering hard, and placed him in a small bucket he'd found that would fit the pup but shallow enough it wouldn't drawn the new born.
Sometimes used as an alternative, Max provided the pup with some shells - he'd cracked them open before, the pup would be able to nibble on the soft meat within and seep whatever juice there was.
"Irvin... " with the pup settled, he reutrned to the human and stroked his back. "you holding up alright? Can i feel your belly?" he asked, now cuatious on how to handle the human.
