Therian Diary REVAMPED!~ Entry 1

Instructions

Authors Note: pings are open!! This is the diary of a red fox therian but its loosely based off my real life. most entries will be completely made up, with fictional elements. Amber had been working on her science project ever since she got home, so she was feeling pretty depressed. "Its past due and all I can think of is gear.." she thought. Amber slumped down onto the counter and sobbed quietly. A few minutes later... "Pull it together Amber!" she told herself. she typed boring paragraphs about Biology while not even caring because she would get a bad grade anyways. Amber stumbled to bed tiredly, before realizing she forgot something. "Inigo!" she called out. "He's right here" said her sister, with Inigo cradled in her arms like a baby. "Come here you little fluff ball!" Amber said, grabbing Inigo and walking to her room. Amber set Inigo down and sighed. She imagined what it would be like if she had gear or a forest nearby to make a den in. Then she cried, as she always did when she thought about all the therians with cool masks and gear. "All I have is a broken, badly designed marble fox mask" Amber muttered to herself. She layed down on her bed and fell asleep right away. Amber opened her eyes. looking around she saw.. a forest! A real forest! In a clearing, there was a decently sized den with a person inside! "H-hello?" Amber said hesitantly. "GRAH!" the person growled "OH! Im so sorry, you scared me for a second there.. I'm usually alone." She noticed something fluffy behind them. "Whats that fluffy thing behind you?" I asked, hoping they wouldn't mind the question. "Uhhhh.. do you know what a therian is?" the person started hesitantly. "Yeah, I am one" I responded "Mind if I come in?" Amber asked, looking at their large den, which now looked very inviting. "Yeah no problem! Im Nyx by the way, Coyote and barn owl therian, what about you?" "Red fox, and the name's Amber" Amber responded. Amber got onto all fours to fit through the entryway then was amazed at what she saw inside. There were rooms, separated by sticks buried in the ground, with fake moss placed on top of them. There was a fairly deep hollow in the ground in a room Amber trot into, with feathers and random fluffy tidbits scattered inside. "Thats my nest! I can make you one too if you want!" "Yes please!" Amber responded, feeling the softness of it with her hand. Nyx scampered off then said, "Come with me to the treehouse! It’s where I keep my books and gear!" Oh my gosh. A therian with a cool den and everything! I hope we can be friends! Amber thought excitedly. Nyx led Amber to a ladder. The two climbed up the ladder till finally they reached a snug room, with more than enough room to fit 20 people. "My dad built this during Covid," Nyx explained. "Let me give you a tour!" As Amber glanced around, she noticed a soft carpet, LED lights in many places, and fake ivy swooping down from the ceiling. "Woah" Amber breathed, shocked that she had found a place she had always wanted to go. "Here's where I keep all my books," Nyx said, pointing to a bookshelf. Amber glanced at the owl and coyote trinkets on the top. "Adorable!" Amber thought. "Heres where I practice quads! Im not very good at them though." Nyx chuckled, getting and all fours and doing a lobsided run towards some cushions. Amber noticed that Nyx has a tail on, and that that was the 'fluffy thing' she saw earlier. Amber knew what section was next; the gear! she looked at the many masks and tails on hooks, as well as different types of paw gloves and more! "I see you noticed my large array of gear. I caused a bunch of trouble, then told my parents is was because i had nothing crafty to do, then I eventually convinced them to start getting me gear! They post on social media about how nice they are to me for follows." Nyx said, speaking fast to get everything out. "Phew! That was a lot of talking" Nyx sighed. "It's all good." Amber said. "Hey Amber, close your eyes!" Nyx said suddenly. Amber closed her eyes, wondering what Nyx was doing. Unbeknowinst to Amber, Nyx had gathered some therian gear for Amber to borrow while she visited. "Alright, OPEN!" Nyx said. Ambers eyes widened as she saw a fluffy coyote tail, shoes with paws on them, handmade quad gloves, and an amazing coyote mask sitting in front of her. "A-am I allowed to-" Amber started, frozen in shock and happiness. "Yeah silly! You're allowed to wear these, It's been forever since ive had a visitor, ever since Thistle got caught with a mask.." Nyx's words faded off. "Anyways, I have a secret I need to show you!" Nyx said, then scurried down the ladder and rushed to a distant hill. When Amber reached the top, she saw the biggest field of flowers ever! Amber put on the gear she was given, feeling fuller when she saw a tail instead of the normal emptiness. "Stop talking!"
