CALL ME HERE AND I WILL APPEAR
LIKE THE LIGHT OF DAY
Rambunctious may be a somewhat light word for the child, though indeed applicable within his situation. Short the time whiled away on shores dusted with particles bearing soft golden hue, unbeknownst to many the halfway mark was left behind, yet teachings may only stretch a certain length. Into the fold had he been brought, tended and adored as though child of some was he rather than abandoned nuisance — too many mouths, useless and thus unwelcome. Beneath skin still was it there, the imprint biological connection wrote along muscle and sinew, a lesson within his life as of yet only begun.
Was nature or nurture the stronger.
Baseless such trivial line of questioning and so disregarded, within moment lingering mind that whirled and tried to make some sense of that which lay before him. Broken line of vision with the intrusion of a paw, attention drawn towards the other, grown family more than leader. Slight the cant shifting perspective slightly, scrunched bridge of nose, shallow yet apparent crease adorning brow. Progression of days brought along with it chance to learn, expanding always mind, slowed progress for more tantalising acts forbidden.

Once more Foam prodded at the odd amalgamation when directed to it once more, away drawn as though burnt paw tightly pressed to chest, the faint whirring the thing made startling to say the least of it. For a moment he merely watched it begin to move along the course, sand kicked up in his wake as he bounced after it, enticed into chase as it looped about various obstacles more for the fact it was capable of locomotion rather than the adornment overtop.
Outward reached paws, slight the graze against faux fur before the diversion of attention proved an issue, a loose tangle of seaweed wrapping about a misplaced paw. Wasted a few precious seconds as teeth and claws alike worked at the vegetation, clinging still fragments as he arose, undeterred if at least more careful to watch the placement of his paws.
