"Aich-- I'm taen the thing hasn't fallen apart, all covered in kiche." B.B. massaged the side of her head, barely able to stop herself from ranting like a madwoman-- she had to take a moment to keep her heritage at bay before continuing, "A gun doesn't NEED all that crap-- THIS--"
She reached into her picnic basket and produced a small submachine gun, whose only customization was an extended magazine, "--is all a gun needs! 'F this isn't doin' it's job, then you're doin' something wrong!"

just gotta rant for a minute; the thought of kok!ch1 being so desperate that he can’t lie or hide it anymore, just desperately squirming and whining in front of whoever he’s with and then finally losing control. 😫
OMG YES YES YES I LOVE THIS GIVE ME KO/KICH/I OMO!!!!

So, I finished rereading White Fang a few days ago. (Yes, the original book by Jack London. I also finished rereading Call Of The Wild but I’m not here to talk about that.)
And, I noticed something interesting.
White Fang is pretty relatable to me.
Now, I know what you’re probly thinking, “this is basically third person limited written in the early 1900s about a three-quarters Wolf how is that relatable???”
So, let me explain.
Oh, and if you haven’t read the book, massive trigger warning for violence, animal death (both because of other animals and humans), animal abuse, human death, feelings of entrapment, and mention of religion (no specification; I understand this can be a trigger for some people.)
White Fang is a three-quarters Wolf, one quarter some sort of dog, who starts out growing up in the wild. Right off the bat it talks about how he categorizes the world (first as living and non-living things; one moves and one stays still), which he learns dive deeper into differing categories (water moves but is non-living). There are laws, inexplicable truths, which shape his experience.
And then, his mother and he run across a tribe of Native Americans (it didn’t seem that they were Inuit but it doesn’t specify. It does take place near the Yukon I believe. Which I can’t recall if it’s in Alaska or further in Canada.) They are taken in as Kiche (his mother) used to belong to the chief’s brother.
The laws of the world change.
But White Fang learns to adapt in his own way. He comes to see humans as ‘gods’, but only in the sense that they are beings more powerful than him. So he must comply with their wishes or face punishment. (This is where it dives into some religious undertones; it’s more for human understanding of a dog’s thinking, it seems, than an actual thought on part of the dog’s.)
Now? Following the rules? Learning to adapt to them as they change although it’s hard? We’ll go further into that later.
Another thing that occurs is that WF (I’m gonna call him that to shorten it) is severely bullied. An older pup named Lip-lip attacks him relentlessly when out of sight of humans, and the other puppies follow him. It goes into this thing about how WF being mostly wolf is a representation of The Wild, which domesticated dogs hate. So they view him as the personification of this, and this attack him for being different.
This is an issue that follows him all of his life. As such, he comes to hate dogs.
This also shapes him into a cunning trickster, who learns to be quicker than the others. He forgoes the ‘formalities’ that dogs take when fighting (like growling or bristling) and just slashes with his teeth and hops away.
He also is mentioned as prideful because he can’t handle being laughed at; I’m not gonna lie, I despise being made fun of, myself, as I’ve been bullied growing up. I don’t think it’s a pride issue but whatever, I digress.
So we have this wolf-dog, who behaves differently with others and won’t bend to social conventions or niceties, ostracized since childhood for being different.
Now, there’s more to the story.
The laws change again.
Because, a man named Beauty Smith manages to get his hands on WF (for awhile when the Natives were selling supplies at a fort to white people, those coming off the steam boat had dogs from down south that all of the tribe dogs hated for being soft, so WF would attack them and then back away while the others finished them off, so that he wouldn’t get in trouble.)
Now Beauty isn’t a beauty; he’s a cruel little man who manages to torment WF and sets him up in dog fights.
Now here’s something WF is good at. As much as he hates Beauty and being held captive like this, part of him likes the fights and looks forward to them.
Eventually, when he’s almost killed, a man comes up and slugs this dude in the face and takes White Fang. Because dude, dog fights are animal abuse and it ain’t cool.
Now begins with Scott (I believe that’s his last name), and the rules change again.
Obviously WF is traumatized and has a hard time at first. But Scott shows him love, and what it means to be loved.
And this, this is where things start clicking for me.
White Fang absolutely loves this new ‘god’ of his. He is absolutely heart broken the first time he leaves, and stops eating or doing anything. The moment he returns, he tries to find some way to show that love. He cannot bark, he cannot not growl when being touched.
So he learns to add this little croon in his growl, and snuggles, which is a big deal because he doesn’t trust his head being covered. He gives his all and everything.
(It’s actually really sweet how the book words it all.)
And he then gets taken to California, to the family estate. He must learn new rules again but by heck he does it. (What hurts the most is disappointing Scott, not even actually punishment.) He has nothing but absolute loyalty and love in this one person, and is willing to protect what’s important to him.
And you know what? As someone autistic, who has a hard time expressing emotion and knows what it’s like to love to the point of loyalty, there’s just some stuff that hits absolutely home in this book. I really appreciated that Scott was willing to be patient, and kind, and show love, and accept how WF showed love in his own way. It’s just. Look, I’m not saying White Fang is autistic or even that the book was alluding to that. Because it’s not. But it’s so, so nice to find little relatable things like this, especially in such an old book.
Anyways, rant(?) over. I just really wanted to talk about this.
