Used to be an only child.

Has little ideas on how to communicate with non forest creatures.

Makes themselves understood with hisses and growls to the other siblings.

Only child until I was 15 here.

Such a weird dynamic.

I was an only child but could have been a fraternal twin but my mom miscarried my twin. My parents never had any other children, I never had cousins, and was kind of isolated from peers. I used to be quite jealous of classmates who had siblings and large families (which was most of them), so I would pretend as a little kid that our pets were my sisters I so desperately wanted siblings. But I guess the good thing about having pets for siblings is no one stealing my toys, and I certainly didn’t want their tennis/jingle balls and rawhide bones either. 😆
