week one in the books!
there wasn't much for an amorphous blob to do in their first week earthside; valravn mostly nursed and slept.
as far as puppies went, he was an easy child. he only moved when he had to, only nursed when he felt hungry, and his favorite hobby was sleeping.
he didn't wander far, if at all -- he had found a favorite spot between the crook of his mother's elbows, and it was there he remained unless repositioned. even then, it took a fair bit of convincing to get the little sprite to move -- he would much prefer to ignore the pokes and prods of his caretaker[s] and continue sleeping.
in sleep, valravn's worlds were transformed. he was no longer in a dark subterranean cave lit by eerie blue. in some dreams he was alone in a vast expanse of lightless ocean -- in others, he was a strange sun-striding quadriped. valravn recognized none of the forms his body took in these dreams, but he understood they were implicitly him -- maybe in another time or another world, but him all the same.
these worlds vanished like the collapse of a star any time he woke. jostled awake by the roaming of his sister, valravn yawned with the bright pink of his tongue curling, smacked his lips, and then promptly fell back to sleep to explore more distant and long-forgotten worlds.
