a whole new world

The realm of sleep held Amée in its clutches and seemed reluctant to let the small pup go. He was comfy, however, curled up in the den with his mother, sister, and the last of his brothers as he nestled against Avalon’s belly. Getting up early was not something the pup did often, especially since his parents were hesitant about any of them going far, and so he kept golden eyes closed as his form rose and fell with each breath he took. It was hard to want to wake up, especially since he was warm and comfortable, but eventually Amée stirred, shifting his head to the side away from his mother, and sleepily opened his eyes.

It took him a moment to realize anyone was missing from the den at all. Amée stretched, mouth falling open in a huge yawn, before he looked around and saw that his father, Océan, and Astor were already up for the day. The pup frowned and rose to his paws before creeping to the entrance of the den with hopes they had not gone far. He wanted to go on an adventure if they did!

They were close, thankfully, and the tiny male scrambled out of the den eagerly, tail wagging behind him as he came over to the tree to see what they were up to. He came up between Astor and their sire, voice curious when he spoke up. “Morning~ What is everyone looking at?” He sat down beside Astor, who was almost twice as big as he was and grinned at his brown and tan sibling as his tail thumped the ground.
