@camohunter19 Ooh, tricky one! Hmm, that requires some thought. . .
I’m trying to think of how kids realize they can lie when they’re little. It just seems (frighteningly) natural to them, though, you know? Like they don’t want mom to know what they did, so they automatically lie to cover it up.
I don’t know the exact flavor/tone of your stories, so my suggestions may not work, but you could try doing something like having the fox watch some other creature tricking another without words (like, hiding something? Don’t have an exact instance in mind) and kind of has this epiphany that he can trick the starlings using words?
I’ll keep thinking on this. I’d love to read your story when you’re done, by the way!
