Sephrina Valle
AW! Sephrina is beginning to peak out of the den!
Around noon, overcast, 16C/61F

The sun was at the highest point in the sky, not that you could see it through the clouds, and even if you could, the small child making a major life decision had no way of knowing. Her eyes were recently open and blue, the sign of a newborn, only letting in blurry visions to the child who they belonged to. For now there was no way of knowing that her eyes would not continue developing as normal, for this short time in her life she had the same abilities as her young siblings.

As it was, Sephrina had seen the big white blur that she had come to associate with warmth and milk and safety had up and left their home. So, she was toddling after them, intrigued with where she was going, and frankly a little hungry. How dare the white blurry leave when she was feeling hungry? She was going to go after her and cry until she got her way.

But, even with the sky blocked with clouds, to eyes that had only ever known the dim of the den the bright was overwhelming. Sephrina stumbled backwards a few steps, startled and not knowing what to think or do.

Eros had been seeking his mother, and just missed her. Having never seen his mini-siblings outside of their burrow before, he didn't think to watch out for them as he crossed by the place @Vanadis's scent most permeated. As such, he nearly stepped upon poor Sephrina, and realizing what he'd almost done sent a horrible jolt right through him.

"Ohmyfish!" he gasped, backpedaling a few strides and blinking in shock at his young sister. Was she supposed to be out here? His head twisted to and fro, seeking a real adult to give him some hints. Seeing none immediately available, he focused back onto the child in front of him.

"Hey Sephy, watcha doin'?"

phone post at work...

Isla had also found herself suffering from the biggest crime of all.

Hunger.

So when her sister stirred, undoubtedly also hungry, Isla watched for a few moments. Her sister seemed awfully eager to move. Meanwhile Isla watched from her splayed position on the den floor. Big White wasn't here, but there did seem to be some other kind of Big White at the mouth of the den. Known as light, unknown as such to the child.

She had just finally decided to rise when her sister stumbled back from the opening. Which left Isla reeling back, falling onto her read with an unhappy squeak inside the den.

Betrayal was always a good start.

Nix Valle
Nix was having a nice dream as he sighed in contentment. When he'd fallen. Asleep he'd been sandwiched between his two sisters. Probably his two most favorite aside from the big white blur that supplied him with his food. He of course had no clue that he had a mother and father or even older siblings. His world had been so small for his short life.

When he rolled onto his back he realized that something wasn't quite right. Opening his eyes to the darkness of the den his eyes didn't see much. Poking around with his nose he realized his sister's were gone from where they had been before.

Well that wasn't right.

He started looking around but he couldn't find them. Letting out a small bark hoping that would get them to answer back he then rose to his feet. His blurry blue gaze landed on the den entrance. He'd been curious about it for awhile now so since no was around he decided to take his chance.

Nix toddled up to the entrance until something came falling into him eliciting a squeak. Without hesitation he shoved his nose into the dark fur and realized it was one if his sister's. Immediatly he began licking her hoping to make her better.

Sephrina Valle

A lot of things were happening simultaneously. Sephrina was stumbling backwards few steps because of the bright sun, Eros almost stepped on her, Isla fell, and Nix started to bark. It was way too much for the child to process at once, and so instead she chose to focus on what was in front and ignore what was behind her. Sephrina squealed unhappily about almost being stepped on and reacted in the only way she could think of.

Her brother had backpedaled a few steps so it took some serious effort. Sephrina surged forward on pudgy legs, almost falling down more than once. When she finally reached where Eros stood she reached out with purpose, and swiftly tried to chomp on one of his toes. She was going to show him what happened to people who stepped on her. They would pay, and they would pay with their toes. Her milk teeth were very sharp after all.

Eros heard a muffled cry, and his gaze snapped past Sephrina and onto the dark hole from which she'd been attempting to emerge. Was something wrong, were they okay? He took a step closer, and then felt the sharp slice of his baby sister's teeth upon his paw. Confusion joined the concern, and his face twisted accordingly. Was she, angry with him?

He pulled the assailed extremity up into the air and out of her short reach.

"Hey, that's not nice!"

Eros wasn't sure if she'd understand his words or not, but it was worth saying all the same in his opinion. Doing his best not to trip over her, he tried to maneuver past irate little Sephy so that he could peer into the den and check on the other two.

"Excuse me, Seph."

The world was too much, too fast.

This was being discovered at an alarming rate. Nix tried to soothe her, Sephrina seemed to be doing something beyond and suddenly there was a third looming figure. Perhaps it was for the best she would not remember these early days and the damage it would do to her ego.

Despite the soothing from her brother, she felt the sting of an overwhelmed child. Or maybe she was just extra colicky today. All days, really.

She started a soft, snotted bubble of tears. She deeply wished to return back to sleep alongside the Big White now. Please and thank you.

Nix Valle
There were times when Nix wished he only had one sister that he needed to take care of. Having to was just too much when one was upset in one place and the other was off doing who knew what somewhere away from him. He was still trying to comfort Isla when he heard a voice talking to Seph.

With one last lick that ye hoped would make Isla feel better Nix moved as fast as he could toward his other sister. Admittedly that wasn't really fast at all since he kept tripping over his own paws.

When he finally did reach Seph he found her with a familiar wolf who he hadn't quite figured out yet. Nix let out a little growl in defense of his sister once he was at her side.

Sephrina Valle

The child felt her bite connect successfully upon one of Eros’ toes, before it was ripped prematurely away from her attack. At his exclamation, which Sephrina did not fully understand but got the emotion behind it she grinned. Leaping up as high as she could, she chomped her teeth together comically, like an alligator going after bait out of its grip. Toppling back down to the ground the child was too clumsy to get her paws back under her in time and instead ended up in a heap on the ground.

She wasn’t hurt, but it knocked the wind out of her lungs with one single woosh. A second later the tears welled up in the cloudy eyes and started to slip down her cheeks as her chin quivered. Burying her face into Nix’s fur when he reached her side she declared, OW How could Eros have done this to her? Why wouldn’t he just let her bite him?

Instead of listening, she started leaping after his paw like a shark from one of Dad's ocean tales. Eros was now absolutely bewildered and could only stare at the weird little creature that was his baby sister. Had they been this way when they were babies? He honestly couldn't recall one way or the other.

As if that wasn't enough, Nix appeared in short order and started letting out unhappy little noises that were very clearly directed at him. It was one mistake! Were they going to hate him forever now?!

"Bro, it was an accident!" he scoffed, but the words were interrupted by Sephrina's crocodile tears. Was she really hurt, or was this frustration over not being able to get to his paw? Eros was at a complete loss, and felt himself wishing one of his parents would appear. Even Isla was crying, audible beneath the earth.

Eros stomped his paws in frustration.

"Gaah I don't know what to do! Dad!!"
