Swiftcurrent Creek (ʘ‿ʘ✿)

The young boy was becoming bolder—to an extent. He acted like he was tough shit each and every time he marched his little tush right out of the den but, the second he couldn’t see it anymore, panic usually followed. He was getting better about managing himself, though, and even manged to venture farther from the den than usu— oh no, where’d it go?! Frowning, he spun around multiple times before realising that he could still smell his familial space, which automatically made things just dandy. Why, he even decided to trek a bit farther from home! Farther and farther and farther...

...until something suddenly stopped him from taking another step and a jolt of pain shot through his muzzle.

Having not been paying attention, Kubo hadn’t noticed that he wasn’t alone—or that he’d run right into @Rhakios, until it was too late. Reversing, he was sent into a major sneezing fit, with each breath between sneezes being filled by incoherent mumbling.
