Shiny things - Seff - May 30, 2016

@Vuk or @Reek ?
The den had been his world for what seemed like ages, but the little pup had already explored every nook and cranny of the rocky whelping den. Now, as his mother slept, his tiny blue eyes fixed on the cave entrance, and the many colours that presented themselves there. The sun was setting, and a myriad of colours painted the sky. Low bird calls met his ears, Seff did not yet know what they were, but didn't care. He had one sole mission in mind.

Creeping away from his mothers side, he made with great haste for the entrance of the den, and, to his joy, made it outside all by himself. Caught up in his excitment, he babbled to himself as he slowly made his way...well somewhere. Seff made it only a few meters before he stopped, intruiged by a small beetle crawling toward his paw. He gave a little 'oooh' and yipped excitedly when it touched his paw.

the weight of knowing she must depart the grotto's den where seff had lived these past weeks did not sit well upon vuk's shoulders. she found she was wounded by reek's decision -- he had not even consulted her. and yet she had no right to ask such of him -- his word was law, and she would obey.

she woke with a start, eyes widening as she felt around for seff's warm little body. he was not immediately found; vuk rolled to her side and then her feet, stepping quickly along his trail. it was a sigh of relief that took the girl when she found her babe out-of-doors, unharmed and cooing.

on a whim, vuk swept her son into her jaws and set off at a trot across the larksong woodland. she knew not where she would go to find a suitable den, only that she would not return to the little grotto where she had been.

the girl was both surprised and not so to find that her heart ached to leave reek behind, but he had chosen the reddish woman and her teachings. let him. she would focus upon terich and his affection for her.

While instinct dictated that he should lay limp in his mother's grip, that lasted only a few minutes. He was flying! He could see, and smell, and hear, and there was far to much to do. With a sqwuak, his little legs began churning as he sought for the ground, wanting to explore. 

But all this wiggling was hard work, and beside, Seff had noticed a brightly coloured thing zipping through the air. He 'oooh'ed, laying limp once more as his blue eyes tracked the thing. Seff was easily distracted by almost anything at this age, and could hardly remain in any one task for long.

her jaws tightened, though not too harshly, around the squirming form of her babe. in silence she continued to carry him, eyes searching for any sign of a den that would be well-suited for their needs. she paused along the stream to let seff down, to nurse him, and to drink water, but within a few moments she girl set off holding him again.

it was a small, bare cave she discovered, devoid of the usual green cover. dead leaves lay at its mouth; vuk sniffed at the air, and found it stale. slowly she entered, hackles bristled to flee if there was movement.


RE: Shiny things - Seff - May 30, 2016

One of Seff's paws dragged along the leaves, causing them to stir against each other, creating a sound he had never heard before. Excited, he let out a steady happy babble, punctuated by many 'ooh's...his favorite word, it seemed. He barely had time to look at the cave before his mother pulled him inside, where he was temporarily blinded by the sudden darkness. He gave a concerned coo before hanging limp once more.
Sorry for the short posts, on my phone!

she set him down in the darkness for another nursing session, then began to peer around. it was small, but not so small that she, seff, and terich would not fit. a smile tugged at the edges of her mouth; she nipped playfully at seff and led him into the sunlight outside, kissing his downy ears before tilting back her crown and calling for @Terich-mir.


RE: Shiny things - Seff - June 08, 2016

Seff adored the attention of his mother, and as she kissed his ears he made a happy humming noise. He snuggled closer to her for a moment, feeling her chest rumble as she howled into the sky. Seff's eyes gleamed. He could do that! He tilted back his head a let out what, in his mind, was a magnificent and haunting call of the wild, but what in reality was a lighter, softer imitation of his mothers soulful howl. He knew not for what purpose he howled, only that he, Seff, would help his mother in her howling mission.


RE: Shiny things - Terich-mir - June 08, 2016

Terich heard Vuk's call and hastened to her voice, ears perked forward to listen to the bittersweet song. He had vaguely heard of the red woman, of the ways in which she was changing their home, but Terich was so focused on Vuk and Seff that he had little time to ponder other things. So when Vuk called, he answered her with his presence. Seff's smaller voice broke the air, too, and Terich smiled as he loped toward them. He found them by a barren cave, and nuzzled each affectionately before he stepped back to speak. What have you found?


RE: Shiny things - Relmyna - June 11, 2016

so engrossed was she by seff and his little antics, his tiny, warm body, that she did not immediately see terich's approach. the demonte's gentle voice roused her, however; she moved to his side, granting a lick to his cheek. "a n-new ... d-den," she stammered, gesturing expansively to the small shelter.

her expression soon grew somber. "r-reek ... h-he let ... a ne...w w-woman live i-n the g-grot..to. a...str-ang...er." this was the extent of her ability; vuk fell silent and waited for her mate to speak.


RE: Shiny things - Seff - June 11, 2016

Seff was ignorant to the conversation the two being where having, however, a few words no longer sliped through his grasp. What. You. Reek. He was beginning to understand the meaning of these words. Reek was a word that appeared when the dark male appeared, however, looking around in confusion, Seff could neither smell nor see him. You, was him, or another entity. "uooooo" he said, drawing out the sounds softly. One day, they would make a word. What. It was a word that asked the other of his intentions, or actions, or something along those lines. "waaaaa" he said in the same soft tone, looking at the male. His...father? He had been with him as long as the fuzzy potato could remember, the same as his mother.


RE: Shiny things - Terich-mir - June 19, 2016

Terich's bright countenance darkened at her words, her explanation about their move. It wasn't that he didn't want to stay with her, or share a den as a family; rather, it was the unceremonial way in which Reek had evicted them. Do you know her name? he asked softly, trying to erase the darkness from his face as he turned to Seff with a smile.

Talking already, little one? Terich grinned and licked the boy's head. Can you say 'mamma'? Maaaaaahhhhh-maa He laughed at himself, settling down beside the child and Vuk, distracting the little one from his mother's distress with play.


RE: Shiny things - Relmyna - June 21, 2016

vuk too reached to kiss seff, attempting to reassure him, but shook her head at her mate. she had not caught the woman's name, only that she must be very important to enter the very heart of larksong on reek's good word. and so she had left, in pain and anger at the leader of the grotto. vuk was sure he had his reasons, of course.


RE: Shiny things - Seff - June 29, 2016

Seff smiled proudly, he must have done something very good to earn all of these kisses! Beaming at both his mother and father, oblivious to the distress that went over his head, he tried to copy the noises his father was making, unknowing that one day, they would be his first words. He furrowed his brow in concentration, focusing on the sounds his father made. "Mmmm. Mmeh. Meh!" He was quite proud of the sounds he had produced, and his tiny tail wagged eagerly and excitedly.
