flowers for algernon

Azure was a good cheerleader, he didn’t give up until he could bring a smile to his brother’s jaws. Indy was a little disappointed that he wouldn’t ever have his impressive fangs like his father, but he could be happy with his sharp claws. Azure went a step further, he told him that he’d be able to climb trees to get his flowers, and the thought excited the boy. There weren’t many trees in the tall grass plains, but now he was eager to find some trees to ascend. Knowing that his brother felt envy for his ability made Indy feel bittersweet. He wanted to share the experience with his brother.

”Your claws are so much bigger than mine though. Maybe you can climb too.” He switched positions with his sibling, now Indy was trying to build Az up. They didn’t linger on their physical attributes much longer, now it was time to figure out how to get momma her flowers. Since he associated his own bright colors with the flowers Azure’s words gave Indigo quite the idea.

”What if I’m part of the bouquet?” He asked excitedly, if Az tied the flowers to him, he could be a flower as well. Indigo would love to give himself to his mom, surely the gift would mean even more. He’d get a huge smile from his momma! ”Will you tie them?” He asked with ears perked and grin playing on his dark features. There had to be some long grass around here somewhere so his brother could tie the stems to his neck. He’d put the valerian at his throat and the sunflower on top of his massive head.
