Sweets's and my son, Tesla
He's exhibited a strange characteristic, though. Here’s the story:
Right after he was born, cleaned up and dried, he started to nurse, as we all know is normal. Sweets was laying on some blankets we laid out on the floor for Tesla and her, letting him suckle. Jeena and I were close by, gently stroking Tesla's balahibo and talking to him. All was calm and peaceful. For a few minutes, anyway.
He suddenly pulled away, and growled "All of you! Get away from me! NOW!" His balahibo started standing up all over, and we all did what he said. He stood up on his shaky little legs and wobbled over to a bare spot on the floor, away from the blankets. We gathered around him, since we were obviously worried. Then there was a crackling sound coming from him, faint at first, then louder and louder. Then there was a blue glow all around him, brighter and brighter, until we couldn't madala to look at him. And then, there was a loud "ZZZZAAAPPP!" and the feeling like lightning had struck really close by.
When we looked at him again, Tesla was standing at the center of a blackened area on the floor, probably about 3 feet in diameter. And if you think THAT'S weird, then get this: he'd seemingly instantly grown to the size of a pup of about 2 months or so. After we'd recovered from the shock (pun intended), we went to him and looked him over. He seemed fine, if a bit tired. He laid down where he was, and growled "DAMN all this stress from the last few days!" Sweets asked him "Do you need madami milk, baby boy?" He grinned, ipinapakita a full set of tuta teeth "With teeth like this, what do you think, Mom?" I sinabi "Get that boy a hamburger!" I actually DID make a quick run to town once I knew everyone would be all right while I was gone, and got us all 'burgers for dinner, since I hadn't had time to fix anything.
We held back on announcing Tesla’s birth so that we could get him to Colby to be checked over to make sure he was all right, and so we could get things set up, including this article. His early arrival has had us scrambling here at home.
He seems to be a normal 2-month-old pup, if a little advanced even for that age. And a quick heads-up to everyone who might be talking with him - he’s got a definite Alpha personality. This includes his use of some of the “colorful” words in the English language, but nothing extreme. Also, if you touch him, he might give you a bit of a shock, kind of like a static “zap”, but nothing madami than that, unless he’s upset, startled, or angry. We’re (understandably, I hope) unwilling to test how much of a shock he’s able to give, so we don’t know if he can repeat his “lightning power” thing or not. Now that he’s out in the world, though, we know he won’t hurt anyone purposely unless he’s provoked. He’s eager to meet everyone in our pack here, so we’ll probably be putting him on either Sweets’s account or mine, so he can talk for a while later on today.
