He had been struggling with a sickness lately, and kept sniffling loudly in an effort to gain his parent's attention. But that hadn't worked out too well for him as he didn't display any symptoms of being sick other then extremely fake sounds coughs and constant sneezes from breathing in the pollen around him.
The sole reason he did cough in everyone's face only to ram into one of his siblings sides playfully was because he was convinced he was sick. He wasn't really, it was just his visions that made him feel ill. He'd get a bad headache from them and that was good enough to the small red leopon to convince him that he was "dying" from some mysterious illness.
"I'm not lying!" He promptly told one of his siblings who was starting to suspect how much of a serious danger this "contagious disease" really was. "Da says the stories I see are visions! It must be a vision making me sick!"
