Have you ever seen a baby fox? 🦊

mayhap it will. I don't have to worry if I laugh too loudly in my own home, after all. my sister judges me not. but everyone else will see it as a failure.

ohhh no no 𝑛𝑜. bargain not your life on it, for i'm oft quite foolish just of my own accord & at no fault of anyone else's. but i appreciate the effort. ( mischief's well-met, his eyes crinkled & nose scrunched )
