development thread! also a wandering-away-from-den thread. ;P
the warm golden sunlight of the morning as it crests the horizon and peeks invitingly into the birthing den is beguiling; a flame that beckons and whispers to asmoses whom, though draws most of his courage from liliana, is slowly learning not to be afraid of the world beyond this small paradise shared with his twinshine and amma. he peers at his amma's face, unsure. worry creases his brow as she remains ever reclusive and shifts to nibble at his paw before slowly slinks away from the stars of his life; stretching his slumber stiffened limbs as he goes. he squints against the onslaught of sunshine as it peers thru the soft rustling emerald leaves before he yawns wide and pushes even further.
further and further. pressing against the unseen boundaries of where he is allowed to go with a blossoming of giddy bravery that borderlines rebelliousness. that enticement of knowing he isn't supposed to go too far but doing it anyway because he does not know the dangers of the world ( though he is probably pretty safe in the borders ).
he disappears into the brush, curious about what lay beyond the limited gilded cage of his existence; childish and trilling giggle escaping him as he explores.
