sorry for TWO tags in 2 minutes, lmfao

children had a way of obscuring worries from their present. in the back of val's mind he knew he had to get home, but he liked it here. he buried any thought of his parents, along with the guilt of worrying them, deep in the back of his mind.

for now, life was good -- and that was all that mattered to little valravn.

he tottered after @Alyx, having noticed her various cache deposits around the territory that was quickly becoming his second home. by way of casual conversation, the little starling piped up with a question that'd been at the back of his mind for the last few weeks: "how come you have a mom that's a boy?"

val had never known anything different than two mothers. learning of firebirds and their customs, val began to wonder why wolves in different places were so strange in their customs. he smiled, following alyx dutifully as they went to and fro in the copse -- never once thinking about the day this would all end and he would be escorted home. for now, val was in suspended bliss-- and he did not wish to wake up.
