[Introduction]
A fox notice a curious small figure in a open field, while crossing it in the way of its den, getting closer to inspect the potential prey, his sight met with the image of the small rodent reading a book while resting, she doesnt seems to notice its presence until he gets close enough to make a shadow over her. Obviously she jumps, scared of the fox, but soon relax, she knows in her guts that if the fox wanted to eat her, it would have happened in a tap, yet this one seems calm, swishing its tail slowly from one side to another, laying on the floor staring at her without getting close. When she manage to calm down her heart, she starts talking to it in a soothing tone.

"You s-surely gave me the spooks"

The fox flick one ear turning its head to the horizon quick, then back to her, the small rodent adjust some of its own fur with its tiny hand, then clear the throat, making a small gesture in a greet.

"Well.. My name is Alma, its nice to meet you... er... Fox, yes."

Not getting much reaction of the fox, besides it sniffing the ground almost snorting her straw hat away, Alma start talking about random things trying to calm down and interact with the fox, soon she seems to forget shes talking to a fox, getting more and more into talking about her experiences, grabbing her small diary with a red leather cover, a place were she writes about her adventures in this huge world. The fox lay its head on the grass, listening carefully to this small creature talking about everything, for the first time a rodent managed to get this close to the fox without getting eaten, her presence is soothing and warm, making the fox forget about its surrondings and the time, nothing matters more than this figure in front of him.

Alma gets carried and start showing the fox its small drawings on her diary, scenarios, animals, food, cities... She drew everything, trying to record her path... In the end she rest with her back on the snout of the fox, while showing him the pictures with a sparkle in her eyes.

This moment seems important to both. A bound is shaped.

[Note]
Made this piece as a way to show the feral part of my own sona and a way to introduce Alma, a oc i made as a companion for my sona. Alma is a personification of a simbolic meaning for me. About the contruction of the piece i decided to give a shot and try a cute colorful scene to press further into learning different ways to draw stuff, using less lines and a moderate amount of brushing. Also tried to write a little story to feel how is to do it.

In times like these, a small wholesome scenario can bring us a little warmth to cheer us up.

Characters:
The gray feral fox - my own fursona
The small white rodent - Alma a OC

Cheers!
