The green lion, marked with a gory set of butterfly wings, had to sleep off a couple of days in a small hole thanks for a particularly pale lioness that had interrupted his plans to obtain some baskets and leave. Fortunately she had only interrupted those plans, not halted them for he knew his way around enough to know a way to Laini that wouldn't collide with the pale lioness.
When the time came to find that path he stood as though he carried a hidden weight and stretched like he hadn't done so in days. Sleeping in such cramped quarters was doing a number to him, but he figured it would be well worth the wait considering the product she appeared to put out. Once he had stretched and relaxed a small amount he was satisfied the walk wouldn't be nearly as bad as he imagined it might. The sun was shining, there was a light breeze and it was warm - not hot. The perfect conditions for his trip, though it wasn't far.
With a large yawn he began his ascent up the mountain, through a path that was thick with plenty of trees - a welcome cover from peering eyes. He'd blend in fairly well.

The couple of days she had been given to work on the bags were long and involved at least two visits from an annoyed Sabia who had demanded to know more about the green lion who had been roaming about. On both occasions she had admitted to accepting an order and even that she anticipated to see the lion again, but of course she couldn't say when the lion would be around to pick up the bags, so she left that part out as best she could. Of course this meant that she would see the pale intruder sporadically as though she figured she would catch her and the green lion in an act of treason.
Laini wasn't worried though, she had finished the bags as planned and smiled at them lined up against one wall of her den. The other side had become a place to nap and regain some energy to continue working on the order - this was her newest priority, beyond keeping Sabia at bay which was enough work in itself. Even to think of dealing with her again made the dark lioness yawn with exhaustion. How could he have allowed himself to be caught? But also how could he have known that Sabia had been looking for him... Laini supposed she couldn't blame him for that.
"I wonder when he will be here." She pondered out loud mindlessly as she began to fidget with some of the items added to one of the bags - she was pleased with all of them, they looked darling.

Ali`dido was dragging himself through some thicker parts of the forest path he'd chosen now, finding that twigs and some mud had become the bane of his existence. He felt a number of twigs jab up into his paws and he cringed at the discomfort they had caused. Once he was out of that terrible part he found the mud to be hardening and leaves to protrude from his paws like small decorations - all in all he was becoming rather grouchy and even mumbled prayers to the gods that he'd see her den soon, also that the bags were worth it.
"I'm here, I'm here." He said not truly covering up the grouchy way he felt in his tone. "You're far to impatient." His golden eyes narrowed at the dark lioness who had turned to regard him when he spoke - the look on her face, regardless of his attitude was one of pleasure. "They are done then?" He asked, reading into the expression and when she nodded briskly he could have jumped for joy, his walk wasn't for nothing. "Well?" He said and was rewarded with her jumping to action.
"These are perfect!" He said, excitement in his voice said it all - if the words weren't enough. Golden eyes widened with joy and he couldn't stop smiling. "I know a couple of felines that will be so pleased by this." He said with a smile. "Thank you."

At first she didn't spy the lion, in fact it was as though her vision had chosen to ignore the figure moving towards her all together and so when he spoke she was actually a touch startled, but certainly pleased. Her green eyes lit up as she finally truly saw him for the first time that day. "If you had come a moment sooner you'd have caught me sleeping." She mused lightly, enjoying the way he responded to her own excitement. "The bags have been ready for a little bit now and I hope you'll be pleased by the outcome.
She pulled the bags out and she watched as his eyes immediately began to wander the patterns, as well as the articles that were decorating the material. Both the gems and bones he had provided looked beautiful against the natural plant material - she had also accepted his idea to have a liner, then put it into action. The inside was lined with the leather of a small create who had the unfortunate timing of scurrying about to forage - she caught and removed the pelts herself, as well as enjoyed a small meal.
"I'm so glad you like them!" She gushed, blushing a small amount at the compliment. "I surely hope they do." The dark lioness said earnestly, she hoped they got as much joy out of them as she had making them. "They are perhaps my greatest piece." She admitted in a small tone - lack of confidence was obvious in her, though she seemed to open up like a book when it came to working on these projects. "But enough chatter, you need to leave before Sabia comes back."

"Thank you so much Laini." He said again, wanting to repeat it a few more times over, but he knew that his companion was right. "I'll take my leave, but I cannot say I won't be back. The bag might need to be mended, or heck, I just may get a new one." He smiled warmly - this trip was well worth it, he could just picture Mahinas face.
"Thanks again, this isn't good-bye though, I'll see you later."
His smile never faded as he left, toting the new bags in his refurbished one. The lining was doing the trick and had even saved his original bag from being burdened by all of the weight - he was sure the lining would extend the life of his current bag. Taking his time, not actually wanting to take the same path back, he began his descent.
"Here we go." He muttered, beginning his journey back to the youthful Mahina and her lioness, Meltem.
