OW! Is what she had inwardly thought while eating breakfast this morning. A sudden jab of pain had been sent through her gums... Eating this morning had been difficult, she had to ensure she chewed with her back teeth and not the front. It made from ripping meat from it's body difficult... but with some gnawing and maneuvering of her neck she managed.
Yet after her meal, while she was exploring the outskirts of camp, casually she was wiggling her tongue about in her mouth. It's when she pushed against her bottom canine tooth that she realized something... It's moving...!
Instantly the child freaks out, why was her tooth moving? It didn't do that before! Was it going to fall out? Was she going to lose it forever?!
Figkit doesn't understand losing one's baby teeth is a normal part of growing up, she's never witnessed another kit lose any before... or even an adult! If any of her den-mates had she hadn't been there for the fun.
Tears well up in her eyes, she didn't want to lose a tooth! She didn't want to be like Squirrelspring (npc elder), he didn't have much for teeth at all!
She could already hear it, her litter-mates teasing on her.
Nervously she approaches the first adult (or at least, decently aged) cat she could find. Before she even opens her maw it's quite clear there is something wrong... "Um..." quietly she starts, "my tooth... my tooth is moving..." her voice is filled with a mixture of fear and shame. Genuinely believing this situation to be something awful... something had to be wrong with her mouth. Maybe she was sick? "...Do I go to Dawnglare...?" Shuffling her paws she looks up at the feline with wide, dialated eyes.
