KasaiLoki
Morning was way passed over. The charcoal colored lioness knew that, by the way the sun was set high in the sky. Yet, she didn't have the energy to open her sky blue eyes. Instead, she rolled over on her side, groaning as the light slowly slipped into her vision. Blinking quickly, she rose from the ground. "And I was enjoying my nap." she said as she stretched, her bones cracking and shifting from the lack of movement over the past few hours.


Lethrossen
Asi snorted, ears picking up on Ari's movement. He was settled not far off, and was already half away. He shifted and tried to, perhaps rub himself into the ground, or perhaps get better situated, but it didn't seem to be working. His eyes peeled open, ear flicking.

He stayed that way for a few moments before even looking around, figuring out where he was.


KasaiLoki
Ari spotted the mocha colored lion laying a ways from her. Turning her head, she looked around. They were still in the rogue lands. The watering hole they had met at the night before was behind them, but in sight, none the less.

"You awake?" She asked, not looking at the younger lion, but instead, in front of her. Raising her muzzle to the air, she sniffed, seeing if any others were in the area.


Lethrossen
"Bloo'n'ashes it's brigh' out." He hissed, yup he was awake. And perhaps feeling better. He slowly struggled to his feet, body stretching out, yawn stretching his jaws. " 'ow long 'ave we been out?" He muttered, not really expecting an answer. He shifted more, taking a few steps toward the watering hole. No one was in site, and he didn't bother scenting for others.


KasaiLoki
Ari shrugged. There was none around in sight, nor was there any other scents in the air. The lioness followed Asi to the waterhole, dipping on paw into the water. Refreshing, it was. Placing her paw down, she lifted the other licking at it so she could clean herself.


Lethrossen
He watched her a moment, before getting a drink. He had a strange desire to play in the water, but he doubted Ari would want to. Besides.. he wasn't that comfortable playing in front of others. Glancing again at her he got somewhat of an idea. It might just piss her off, but he was willing to take that risk. He raised one paw, slamming it back in the water in a sort of scooping motion, sending a bit of water her way. He laughed at the outcome, thinking it was rather funny. "Thoughy yew could use some 'elp cleanin'." He snickered.


KasaiLoki
A low growl emitted from Ari's throat. She did not enjoy that one bit. With narrowed eyes, she crepted into the water once more. Within a moment, she tackled the younger lion, successful dunking him under. With a look of accomplishment, She shook her head, wading in the water.


Lethrossen
Asi's eyes widened as he realized what was about to happen, but it was too late. He was tackled into the water. After she got off he spluttered water from his mouth, half laying half sitting in the water. He coughed a bit and frowned, he didn't like it eiter. Though he realized he deserved it. " 'ell, I do no need a bath." He muttered, but grinned, raising a paw, perhaps to splash her again, then lowering it. Best not test his limits.

He rolled over, standing and shaking off a little, bending his neck so he could drink.


KasaiLoki
Though, she must admit the water was refreshing in the hot summer days of Africa, the charcoal lioness didn't enjoy being caught on the suprised side. "You sure about that?" She asked. She sniffed the air, feigning a grimmace on her face. "You reek." With a smirk, she left the water. Now! To complete her true bath. She brushed back the fur on her head with her paw, water dripping down every now and then.


Lethrossen
He made a face and stuck his tongue out at her back, still standing in the water. So what if he smelled? He was sure it couldn't be as bad as she said. He sniffed at a paw and wrinkled his nose, shrugging.

He had no one to impress. He trotted from the water, tail flicking droplets of water this way and that, eyes scanning a spot for goo sun bathing.


KasaiLoki
"Oh, very mature there, Asi." Ari said, the ever knowing grin on her face. The lion was actually starting to open up. He wasn't that much of a brat to her, at least, not recently.


Lethrossen
He blinked and flopped down, grinning stupidly. "Ah, mature, hmm? Tell me, what do be matue ari?" He still could be a pain, if in different ways. His tail flicked a bit, ear twitching as, already, bugs came to annoy the lion.


KasaiLoki
The lioness walked over to him, sitting on a cool spot underneath a tree. Sunbathing was something she hated, considering her dark pelt would soak up way to much heat from the sun. "What be mature?" She blinked at the question, shrugging. "Not acting....childish perhaps?" Truly, she didn't know how to explain this 'mature' word. Laying on the ground, she rolled over onto her back, getting an itch.


Lethrossen
He snickered and shook his head slowly. "Yeh should be a teacher." He said, words dripping in sarcassum. He stretched again, watching her. "An' wha' 'arm is is ta play every now an' then?" His head tilted to one side.


KasaiLoki
"Am I actually hearing this? The great Asi admitting to playing every once and a while?" She smirked, rolling onto her side, looking at him. "That has to be the first time, out of all the days I've known you, to say that."


Lethrossen
He rolled his eyes and spat. "An' the las' day, eh?" He shifted unconfortably, rolling on his side.


KasaiLoki
"Aww you don't mean that now, do you?" Ari asked, closing her eyes. "Its good to know you actually have a playful side other than your normal distant one." The charcoal lioness nodded.


Lethrossen
"An' why is tha' nice ta know, hmm?" he snorted, flicking at some grass with his paw. He was getting bored, but that was often the case. He rolled over, laying on his other side, back facing her.


KasaiLoki
The lioness rolled her eyes, sitting up. "Can't you ever take a compliment willingly? Or must you always have to have some sort of smart a** remark to counter it?" Ari growled. She backed away further from mocha lion.


Lethrossen
He growled too, sitting up and turning to face her, raising a brow. "No, I can no take compliments." He hissed, sneering a bit. "Sorry tha' do be maybe the thrid one i do recieve in my life time, and sorry I do no quite believe it." He huffed, getting to his feet and stretching briefly, paws hitting the ground as he began a few steps away.


KasaiLoki
"Well you should. Because not what everyone says is lies. Even if they've never said it to you before." Ari stated. Her moving ceased, noting he was also moving away. Why must things always get complicated when around this younger lion?


Lethrossen
What was he supposed to tell her? He was overly insacure about himself? No, of course not. He shook his head softly, frown set in his face. It was funny, that he appreciated insults more than compliments.

"I do be seein' ya around." He huffed.


KasaiLoki
"There you go! Running away again. You know you can't hide from your problems Asi!" she spoke with the mixture of calmness and anger. Her tail flicked everynow and then, swatting at the bloodsucking bugs.


Lethrossen
He slowed, but did not halt, glancing over his shoulder. " 'oo says yeh can no 'ide from em, eh? Ignore em? It do be easier, no in the end. But as of now it is." He stated, quite calmly and informing. He knew he did that, tried to not deal with things.
