Thinking about Dewdrop who is dead silent when he cries

In the pits he was the runt of his litter, an easy target. making any noise would just draw attention to him.

He's always felt the need to overcompensate, to make himself bigger than he is, stronger and tougher. He's small and can be quiet, but he's still a creature of gnashing fangs and anger.

Being vulnerable scares the hell out of him. He'd rather fight than let someone take care of him.

He keeps it to himself, only letting himself let go when he feels like nobody is watching. Sometimes though, it just gets to be too much.

So when he's in Aethers bed, next to the sleeping quint, his mind flying too quickly for him to handle, he starts to panic.

Tears run down his face in silent waves, a seemingly neverending stream - a souvenir from his past element. He's well practiced in keeping his breathing level, although his body won't untense and he absolutely reeks of distress.

Its the scent of him that rouses Aether, immediately worried dew is having a nightmare or something.

When a kit is born, they are presented to a papa after about three weeks. There, they receive blessings, gifts, and their name is officially announced. The same is done with human babies of the congregation.

Kits love being as close as possible to their parents, so baby wearing is common

They’re adorable when they’re newborns. They’re adorable when they take on their humanoid appearance. They’re…interesting looking during the in between.

Growing kits will sometimes mimic the behaviors of their parents with one another (grooming, scruffing, scenting, etc..)

Like human babies, teething is a nightmare. Horn growth is an additional hell on its own.

All babies need enrichment, but kits more so. They’re not meant to be creatures of the world, so they need constant exposure to all it has to offer, as well as their elemental type(s).

Fire kits sometimes have issues regulating their temperature, and will occasionally ignite, causing mini fires if not handled properly

Earth kits loooooove napping. Unfortunately, they love napping in hidden areas (under tables, in cabinets, under lifted tree roots, etc..)

Tantrums are rough enough as it is. Add on the supernatural element, and it’s 10x worse.

For those that are carnivores or omnivores, their hunting instincts tend to kick in around 3 years old. It’s not uncommon to see a toddler kit attempting to stray from their parents because they heard small prey nearby.

Kit is more of a general term to describe young ghouls. Each element has additional names that are sometimes used. Air- whisps, puffs. Fire- puffs, flicks. Water- squirts, squeaks. Earth- buds, whelps. Quint: spots, clings. Multi: patches, blips.

To my friends who live in big cities: you know how kindergartens will take the kids on walks with those leash-harness things? Yeah imagine siblings of sin doing that with the kits.

They’re clumsy, especially earth kits who have antlers and/or hooves
