chew on this

A lot of the ropes found around Tojo were ceremonial, or at least were too culturally important to chew on. But one of the adults had found an old fraying piece for Kaizen to sink his teeth into and what a grand time he was having. It was heavy, his teeth gritted as he dragged it along, pretending he'd caught some gigantic beast and he was hauling it back to his family to show off his prowess. He arched his back, dragging it in short bursts at a time, because as strong as he wanted to be, it was heavy. If he had someone else to help him tug at the other end it wouldn't be so bad, but it was his rope and he had too many siblings to share with.
