pup development guide says their eyes open anywhere from the 11th day mark to the 15th! :0 all welcome to anyone whose allowed in the den/parents/siblings. <3
Life had been predictable for Rian over the past eleven days of his birth and slowly he'd grown accustomed to it: to the vibrations of when his parents and visitors would speak, to the errant kicks of his siblings, to eating, sleeping and pooping his life away contently in his bubble of darkness. It was not like the world he'd known before — it was different but no longer was it horrible. Routine was easy, instinctual even, but Rian was restless. He shuffled and crawled and blindly poked his nose against whatever he could find. A small yawn left the little king as he stirred awake and stretched leisurely — more than likely jostling one or more of his siblings in the process — before another yawn left him. Sleepily and absently his mouth gaped open and closed like a fishes as he searched for a teat to sate his hunger. He found one and as he began to suckle contentedly, slowly, his eyes peeked open — a sliver of milky blue visible betwixt the rich brown eyelids. They closed as soon as they had parted, but again they opened — a little further than last time — and closed once again. Undisturbed by the discovering of his newest ability Rian kept suckling, more focused on the sweet milk filling his belly than he was anything else. It was only when he blinked again to fully open his eyes did he take note. A strangled yelp left the deaf child's muzzle in a startled cry. Mother, what is this! His cry attempted to communicate. There was ...light and blurry shapes. Not much that was definitive but enough to alert him that there was a major change. Rian's panic began to subside as he blinked rapidly; an attempt to make sense of his newest sense: as weak as it was.
As ruthless as it all may seem the wild cares not for the weaker beings.
