Leonardo padded up to the border, shaking the sleep from his eyes with a swift shake of the head. He looked upon the large feline before him and smiled as he spoke. He wasn't really big on going to the border recently, but he should be getting back into old habits. Nodding to Mazepaw, he looked back to the stranger.

"Hey! I'm Leonardo da Vinci!"
The cub padded over, a flowery bracelet wrapped around his ankle. He had grown it himself, and was happy to show it off to potential new friends. With a grin, the snow leopard settled before Cigarette.

"Papa?"
So what if Leonardo had been staying ever near his family- he was terrified of the idea that he might not see them, and for good reason. Like these reasons.
When he heard the commotion, he became careful, entering the area his father slept in with a sombre expression and a calm demeanour. Seeing his father, screaming, curled up on the floor... it killed the cub a little inside. It broke his heart, but he persevered.
"P-Papa, you're alright. It's me, Leonardo. You're okay now, please Papa- can you talk to me?"
The cub gently approached his father, keeping his movements slow as to not startle the older feline. With a nervous smile on his face, the leopard reached out a paw, only to stop and retract it. He didn't want to frighten Papa further.

"Don't touch him, you might scare him."
Leonardo whimpered, tail tucked between his legs as he looked at the others. His father would probably want space to breath, so the cub took a step back, not wanting to frighten his papa. He looked at the others pleadingly.

"Papa, I was just lonely and wanted to see you so..."
The cub's fear ebbed a bit, seeing his father's anger do the same. Wide grey eyes looked up at his father, apologies dying in their gaze. Leonardo tried a weak smile, but made no move forwards to greet his papa. Instead, the snow leopard ducked his head, what in the animal kingdom was well known as a sign of submission. He didn't know if he was safe yet, or not.
"I dream walked here- I'm sorry if you don't want me in your head, and I can leave if you want."
The way he spoke clearly indicated that the leopard did not want to leave- his tone was empty though, and he mentally prepared himself for the worst.

"Nobody touch him."
Leonardo spoke in a low tone, trying to keep the sound to a minimum. Pure shock keeping him from crying, the snow leopard decided to try and reach his father. His words were desperate, and though he was shaking, he managed to keep the warble out of his throat.
"Papa Jupiter, it's your son- no one's going to hurt you I promise, we're only here because we heard you screaming- whatever it was it was a dream papa and you're awake now."

"Yay! We can be friends then!"
Leonardo proclaimed, beaming at the new Dominionite. The cub was ecstatic to have a new buddy to garden with or paint with or something.

"I'm Leonardo da Vinci."
A much softer voice proclaimed, coming up to a halt beside Killian. The snow leopard sat beside his half brother, a weak smile upon his maw.

"Hi there, name and business?"
Leonardo da Vinci spoke with his usual soft, hushed tones, approaching the border with nerves bundling in his stomach. The cub coughed a bit after he spoke, but greeted the newcomer with a wide smile nonetheless. Appearance mattered, huh.

"Talk to my papa like that one more time and you'll regret it."
Congratulations- Leonardo made his first ever threat, glaring at the offending 'Connectingconstellations' with such a rage as had never been seen before in the cub's eyes. The snow leopard nearly snarled at her, but his father spoke again and frightened him badly.
"Papa, I'm not leaving you okay? And I'm not going to hurt you. You're okay papa, please you need to breath so we can sort this all out."

"Thunderclan?"
Leonardo crinkled his nose in distaste, but smiled soon after at the new clanmate. The leopard cheered internally, grinning widely.
[color=#4bbcf5]"Welcome to the Dominion! I'm Leonardo da Vinci!"

Skyclan? What was that again? The cub padded up to the stranger with his usual soft smile on his face. The arrival of the new person was an interesting development in the otherwise lax day of the snow leopard.
"What kind of gifts? I'm Leonardo da Vinci, by the way."

Leonardo liked being awake- he liked feeling the sun and the wind and the rain and whatever else was deigning to exist upon the earth that day. He hadn't heard much about current events, so was oblivious to any worries anyone may have been having in the Dominion.
Actually, that wasn't true. He had his own worries- almost immediately after he left his coma his brain was attacked by all sorts of issues- Phil drinking, his papa going through Hell, possibly literally. The problems weren't his own but they were personal for *'s sake.
Despite this, the cub had to do something productive, so he chose to garden. He had to clean his flowers, but the cold was starting to kill him. To his dismay, the whitest of the daisies had a fews specks of blood on them, and he sighed defeatedly.

"Bruce, c-can you grab some cobwebs, and some wet moss? I can grow some marigold quickly."
Leonardo began to grow the flower as he spoke, looking at Kaboomcub with sympathetic eyes. The cub managed to smile, his flower almost done growing.
[color=#4bbcf5]"Can you hear me? I'm Leonardo, can you tell me your name? You're going to be okay."

"There's blood on my flowers."
The cub stated with a sigh, disappointment clear on his face. He didn't even bother to look up at Bruce, deciding the his flowers deserved all his attention at the moment. Leonardo shook his head slowly; he had a headache, but was attributing it to the three hours he had spent moving around in the garden and working.

"Can you find a willow tree? I need some bark. If not... poppy seeds."
Leonardo got to work, gently beginning to dab at the scratches to clean them. His eyes were soft as he did so. By now, the marigold was grown and he mashed it up before applying it to the wounds. It may hurt a little, but...
"Who's your mama?"
He needed to keep her speaking- it'd be disastrous if she fell asleep while bleeding. The cub was shaking, but swallowed his nerves to begin applying cobwebs.

"I had a nosebleed, I think."
The cub realized he was being distant, and turned to look at Bruce as though he had just noticed him being in his company. A smile stretched across his face as he greeted Bruce properly.
"Bruce! I didn't even realize who I was talking to- how rude of me! What brings you to my garden?"
Leonardo twitched his tail, his tone picking up and losing its distant, hollow-ish sound.

Leonardo was pretty sure that willow trees were too big, but since his rper wasn't sure he mumbled something about not wanting to stress his brain. It'd do no good if the cub passed out or began to injure himself as well. With a weak grin, the cub began the accelerated growth of a poppy, his headache getting a bit worse.

"Hey! It's okay, you're alright!"
Leonardo heard the scream, and scurried towards the source of the sound- he was surprised to see someone about his age in what seemed to be the aftermath of a nightmare. The cub's fur was puffed up, but he approached slowly like he always did frightened individuals.

"Fate? An amusing idea. Have you put a stake in fate?"
Leonardo inquired, curiously trying to draw the conversation in a direction where he might learn something. Ideologies drove the cub to ask questions about basically everything- it was pretty great.
