Four young Skrekrill fledglings play-fight for fun while a slightly older Tanq watches from the background. Valcaur is at the bottom of the pile, but he doesn't seem to mind; his peers are lightweights. Briggen has pounced and has a hold of his ear; Blight is about to join the pile from the left, and he appears a little more gentle about the rough play than Amini, who is taking an all-out leap for the top of the heap! I don't think any of them can fly yet--except Tanq. Don't break any blood feathers guys!

Valcaur [link] is my character.

HUGE HUGE d'awwwww moment! They're all so small and floofy and adorable! I want to grab them all and squeeze them to death! Their expressions are just to die for.

Briggen's adorable little front foot, there... I love it. <3 Owl feet! You did such a fabulous job with him- I'm honored!

This painting is just too precious for this world. Truly. Or too precious for Skrekrill, at the very least. It's almost a shame that they have to grow up.

I need to think of something for young Kiya and her Grandesque friends to play... what do baby Grandesque gryphons do? They probably playfight too, but I can't see Kiya playfighting--she's too much of a pacifist/scaredy-cat even for pretend violence.

Well, this is probably influenced too much by Titania, but how about a tea party? Idk, do gryphons even drink tea?? Lol, I've always thought of Grandesque as slightly British, and it'd be fun seeing the little gryfflets trashing a tea party XD

Haha, I can see little Grandesque gryphlets (particularly the offspring of the aristocracy) playing at hosting and attending little "parties," in imitation of the adults' feasts and dinner events. I'm not sure if they would drink what we know as tea... maybe some sort of spiced bone/meat stock would be more suitable to gryphonish tastes? I can imagine a gryphon boiling choice parts of their leftovers and adding a blend of natural flavors. Squirrel Grey tea XD!

Lol, that'd be so fun :] makes me jealous of their lifestyle. I guess the little ones could gather the stock while the older ones deal with the meat... hope they don't steal any of the leftovers though xD Would they have a small bonfire as well, similar to the Balodius event? I'm curious, tho they may be a bit young to handle fire yet. Skrekrill probably thinks the Grandesque are all prim and snooty from too many celebrations!

Ok, now I have to draw this for little Kiya! I am too amused by this idea. Would young Bernyll like to play? Bateleur chicks are adorable :D
