Chimola stretched. It was a full on, nothing-could-screw-this-up, the-sun-spot-is-just-right and I-have-a-full-stomach kind of stretch. It screamed that Chimola was planning on settling in for at least two hours and nothing would move him. He settled down in a tree near a farely large watering hole and settled in for a good nap.
This was the life. Just him, and his bro. Hunting where they wanted, and he did mean that in every sense of the word. No one but them, watching each other's backs. No hangers on, no whining parents and teachers. And above all, no responsibility.
Though, thinking of Gwembeshe, where'd he get off to? Chimola yawned and looked around for him lazily but got distracted by a group of lions down by the watering hole. Ooo, females. He probably wouldn't go down there (especially without Gwembeshe), but the view was great from up here.

Gwembeshe was already scoping out the chicks from another prime spot, lower down near the watering hole. And what lovely ladies they were. He had to find Chimola and make sure he was seeing this too, cause this was too good to pass up. He slunk around through the trees, one eye on the females and another eye looking for the black and white of his Bro's fur.
He came scrambling up the tree trunk, and jumped to another limb near the one where Chimola sprawled, his long legs flying everywhere for a moment until he folded them back up under him.
"Dude, CHICKS. Check it out, man. That is the kind of sight I like to wake up to."

Chimola tore his eyes away from the ladies to watch Gwembeshe scramble up the tree. How he did that without tripping over his own legs, he had no idea. But it was usually a study in a strange type of grace, sheer luck and an almost rollicking clumsiness.
"Mmm Yeah, I see 'em." Chimola responded with a delighted tail curl. "And they are a wonderful sight to behold after a nap. Did you see any males with them? And where were you anyway?"

Gwembeshe had to take an extra few seconds to balance himself before he felt steady enough to answer Chimola.
"I had been dozing on a rock over there- it was toasty - and then I heard the dulcet tones of some femmes chatting it up. But not another dude in sight; just you, me, and those chicks."
Gwembeshe glanced over at Chimola. He should have first dibs on the ladies, so to speak, especially after that near disaster with the priestess's daughter back at the pride.
"Dude, you should go introduce yoruself."

"And you should come with me." Chimola said. Never let it be said that he didn't watch out for his bro too. "There's enough there for the both of us."
He stood on the limb of the tree and stretched indolently again before leaping from branch to branch on the way down. He gave his fur a good shake to remove any twigs or dust and looked up at Gwembeshe. "Alright Bro, fur check, how do I look?"

"Looking good, Bro, it's rucked up on your shoulders though. No sweat, ladies love that rough-and-tumble look."
Gwembeshe followed Chimola down, less fluidly and more like an avalanche of falling rocks. When he reached the bottom, he ran a paw over the beginnings of his mane.
"Do I look alright, dude? If so, lead on."

"You look like you got into a fight with a tree and lost. How did you manage to get so many leaves in your mane? Here hold still." Within a couple of seconds Chimola had managed to get all the leaves out of Gwembeshe's mane and then gave him another look over. "Alright, now you just look like you've been in trouble recently. Good thing chicks dig bad boys. Let's go." With that Chimola took off for the watering hole for a drink of water, hoping to play it cool. At least at first, wouldn't want to seem too available.

Gwembeshe allowed Chimola to clean him up, knowing that he almost always got his fur full of twigs and leaves and other things. He didn't understand how Chimola stayed so clean.
Fur taken care of, Gwembeshe still hung back to let Chimola get first crack at the ladies. That way, if he failed, Gwembeshe could have a good laugh before he charged in and tried his luck. And if he didn't fail, Gwembeshe would already have a foot in the door, as it were.

Chimola started off his great plan of seduction with a casual saunter down to the watering hole and a long drink of the cool water. He looked up from his drink as if he'd only just noticed the females. He sat down and curled his tail around his haunches.
"Hey there ladies, lots of fine hunting around here, isn't there?" He'd eaten today. Gwembeshe was an excellent partner to hunt with. Maybe if the chicks had gone hungry today they'd be looking for a pair of hunters to give them herd information.
