Heron Lake Plateau could you el a little less oh el.

just an FYI for @Towhee and @Phox--Fig's going to be a little dick about being weaned :D ilukthx

Fig was screaming. Again.

The removal of Camilla from his life did not have the profound effect on him that losing a parent so often did on a child. He was shielded from that devastation by his very young age. He would likely lose her from his memory entirely as he grew, which would've been unfortunate had he not been blessed to have Towhee and Phox to fill in the gap. As nice as that was, however, it also brought on one major flaw - he was still young enough to want his mother's milk and to stubbornly reject the regurgitated meat soup they were trying to force upon him. Which was a problem seeing as there was no milk to give anymore.

Not that Fig understood that, of course. He didn't realize that by screaming his head off whenever they tried to feed him this new crap, he was slowly starving himself to death. He also didn't realize that by starving himself to death, he was making himself infuriatingly hungry, which gave him a second reason to scream his head off. He's quite the little moron, you see.

But, that's being a kid for you. So anyway, as I mentioned: Fig was screaming.
