Is there a story behind that dream catcher they're holding?
Yes, it's the only reason he's sleeping right now.
When Apollo was little he could never sleep, he would spend all night up reading
or just laying in his bed without anything better to do. Those few times he would
fall asleep it was nothing but nightmare filled horrors. No medicine would help
and finally his mother couldn't watch it any longer. Having already tried everything
else, his mother resorted to an old legend that she had only ever heard from her
grandmother when she was only a young adult.
As the stories go his mother gathered a feather to match his, a band-tailed pigeon's
breast feather, given to her by the birds. Then the ring itself was made from a western
hemlock with darkened cedar roots making up the string that she wove inside it.
The feather was attached with the sap of a Douglas fir and so it was complete.
When she finished her work she brought it to Apollo, who was unsurprisingly still up.
He asked her what it was and she told him that it was to catch sleep for him so that
if he ever wanted to go to bed he would only need to take some of the sleep from the
catcher.
Now to this day I've never known if it was the catcher truly doing it's job, or the
belief he had in it that it would, but I do that it worked. Ever since then all he's
had to do is nuzzle the little thing in his paws, close his eyes and he'll be out like
a light. If he's going somewhere that catcher goes with him. It's pretty sweet.
Now if you'll excuse me, I've had a long day and I think I'll join him in that realm.
