faint of heart

Kai was blissfully unaware of most things around him. It was all.. overwhelming, to say the least. In the best possible way. While his life before had been a far more quiet, secure one, life outside was much bigger and grander and louder. Everything around him seemed alive, from the very ground he stepped on to the birds singing in the distance. Even the wind made more noise here, whistling somewhere far off in the distance and echoing to where he stood. He nearly gaped at it all, jaw unhinged slightly as he took his surroundings in. He moved slowly, one oversized paw in front of the other, trying to figure it all out.

Only when someone approached him - he'd hardly even heard them coming, he was so engrossed in a tree that he'd made his way too. It towered high overhead, far higher than he could ever reach, and he wondered if he might ever be able to climb it. He could probably see so much stuff from up there! His hindquarters wiggled as his tail waved wildly behind him, turning to grin at the stranger. Kai had no sense of danger, no sense of fear yet - and he was thrilled to meet someone that wasn't his mom or his dad! "Hi lady!" he greeted her, his voice loud but gentle all the same. He got a better look at her as he turned to face her, noting her coat was pretty different, but she had the same eyes as he did. They'd be friends, he decided. Though bigger than him, she was much smaller than his dad. "No trouble," he told her, though he didn't really grasp what she meant by that word anyway. "Are you doing trouble?"
