Ever the follower [since it looked safe enough], the little leopard cub trotted up, giving the clothing a definitive sniff or two. "Where the heck do babboons get stuff like this anyway?" She tried biting the cloth and giving it a tug to see what that would do.

Tugging one button off, Damasi stopped and stared at it a moment or two. Weeeeird, it was hard like a rock, but it didn't feel or taste like one. Spitting it out, she paused to sniff at it. Meh, considering all the trouble those babboons or whatever went through, this stuff sure didn't taste good.
"Didn't your mother ever tell you not to talk with your mouth full?" she teased before she started tugging on another one.

Merry raised his eyebrows. "Not really. Did yours?" finally fighting his way out of the vest, he stopped, and picked up the leaf brooch. "I think I'll keep this bit, I like the look of it. Say, where am I, anyway?"

"The Southlands. Unclaimed territory, although..." Kivuli looked around at all of the lions who had moved into the area. "Although it doesn't look so unclaimed anymore."

She picked up one of the buttons and tossed it in the air, trying to catch it on her nose. "Mn, no, not really either I guess. Doesn't mean I do it silly." Tossing the button aside with a flick of her head, she tilted her head at his question,"You must not be from around here if you never heard of the Southlands. HOWEVER."
She sat on her tush affirmatively and tried to look all growly and fierce, in a cheerful way,"The tree over there's mine, you got it?" Wink.

[ I hate leaping in after a while... xD ]
Finally, Essien looks up from his food, suddenly realizing that.... my, there was practically an assembly going on around him! He really was dense. He flicks an ear back, licking at the blood that had already begun to dry into his fur. More lions... he hoped Binti wouldn't be too cruel to them.
"Who even wants to talk, when they have food?" he wonders allowed.

Sauda nodded some and paused as they reached the edge of the graveyard. Mafa seemed hesitant to leave and this made Sauda curious. Raising her nose to sniff lightly, she slowly followed the older pup out into the light. The sun's rays beat down on her soft, grey coat and she smiled, however slightly. This was nice. Her ears perked up, hearing her companion's low growl and she nodded in agreement. "Alright, we'll be careful!"
And maybe we'll find my family..
She really was hoping to find her family. Though, it was very possible that they were not among the living any longer.
((Sorry about that. I completely flaked out for a bit. sweatdrop ))

Binti growled low in her throat as she polished off the last of the itty-bitty, formerly adorable baby antelope. Her narrowed, aqua-colored eyes glittered in the harsh light, but she wasn't about to interrupt her meal, not even to try to get rid of still interlopers in what she'd quickly decided was her territory. And she didn't share well.
Ripping off one last piece of flesh and exposing the femur of the leg she'd been working on, Binti chewed and swallowed. She then, without even bothering to clean her fur (after all, blood makes her all the more threatening....bwahahaha!) stalked over to the cub convention taking place a few paces away. "You know, last I checked, it wasn't particularly polite to get this close to another lion with a fresh kill..." she snarled, hackles back up. Essi was a good influence, but, even he wasn't that good. Her eyes flickered between all of the cubs present, although one ear was cocked back in Essi's direction, in case she had to react to something stupid that he said. heart
((What, Binti start trouble with other cubs she encountered? *cackles* And please, for those who haven't RPed much with me, pleaaaaaaaaase don't take binti's reaction as mine...I like seeing so many other people RPing round here biggrin ...))

(( xd I luff you Vashty, but looks like Binti has another big headed critter to deal with *chucklesnort*))
Mafa's gaze darted to a group of lion cubs. There was a young female that had just torn away from a kill. Mafa could smell it, it was intoxicationg seeing as how she hadn't eaten in quite a while. She took a few steps forward, her head hung low and her eyes opening wider. The tan bloody cub seemed to think she was in charge. Mafa chuckled at this, the little runt; Mafa could eat her in a bite....
Well not really but that's just what the pup liked to think. Her head swiveled to Sauda and she motioned for her to follow, two hyenas would fare better against a group of runty cubs. She smirked making her look quite sinister. Maybe this migration wasn't such a bad idea after all. These cub don't look to bright, leaving their kills around with scraps of meat still clinging to the bones. The pup licked her chops and slinked her way carefully around the cubs. They wouldn't notice... She now stood over the kill, the scent of the blood wafting up to her nose and it made her drool like crazy. Her eyes flared and she threw herself at it. Mafa gulped down the fresh meat like her life depended on it, well that's because it did. She hoped Sauda would join her soon enough because it would all be gone in a few more minutes.

((*dies* oh, the...manure's gonna hit the fan now...xDDD))
Binti stiffened as a sudden scent assailed her delicate nostrils. Rotten, like long-bad meat...it could only be one thing. Her maw crinkled in a vicious snarl, one that immediately showed that her growling at the other cubs had been more to test the waters than to actually do any damage. Whirling back towards the kill, her muscles bunched, moving fluidly under her smooth, still-bloody skin. Advancing on what she thought was the lone hyena cub, she held her tail straight out behind her, ready to react to the slightest hint of aggression--even a hyena cub was nothing to play around with--their jaws were at least as powerful as her own, and they weren't afraid to play dirty.
"what is one of your kind doing around here?" she spat, eyes flashing as she advanced back upon her kill. "Skulking around, trying to steal my kill, are you?"

For once, even Essi seems a little miffed-- and after he's lived through so much tormenting from Binti, that says something! A hyena... he vaguely knew about those, but only from tales. He'd never actually seen one--- or rather, smelled one. The scent of this one reminded him of death; it made his own fur, ruddy and bloodied from his meal, bristle.
"We worked very hard for that..." he lies, his voice sounding almost surprised that anyone would try to take it. And he stands, looking ready to support Binti-- as if that would be of any use to her.

Damasi was about to jabber on about some nonsense or other with Merry since for a lion, he seemed like a real pushover when her little nose twitched. She smelled something. Sniffing again, the little panther wrinkled her nose. Eww, it smelled like rotten meat. Something long dead left out in the sun.
Then she saw the hyenas. Okay, lions she could live with. They could leave scraps, or lead to food. Hyenas were just bad news. Before she knew it, they'd be all over the place, and there was just no chance of them being 'courteous' neighbors.
So she trotted up to stand near Binti and Essien, her own hackles raised so to speak, giving a bit of an indignant snort.
"She's right about that there. Not too polite to steal someone's lunch. Or trespass." Leopards might not be known for hanging out together, but Damasi at LEAST wanted say in who her neighbors were!

((*gets smacked by some fanned out poo* > razz Rawrgh! ))
The pups aqua eyes widened, she was reminded of that one bad experience she had with lions... But she had survived that and they wouldn't get to her ever again. She took a step and put her paw over the kill, her head swooped down to the ground and her back hunched over. Her bloodied hackles flew up as well. She looked quite menacing from this position. Her nostrils flared momentarily, they thought she smelled bad? These lions reeked! She was slightly out numbered but hyenas were not ones to back down when faced with a bunch of lion cubs. She was older than them anyways... Well not too much older, maybe she had a few months on them. But that didn't matter, she was still bigger and better.
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm eating the food you were stupid enough to leave alone!" She scoffed, "Worked hard? A little fox could take down a bigger beast than this! I'll do what I please, none of you own this land"
Her jaws snapped loudly as she spoke, she wasn't about to let her guard down.

Sauda lowered her ears and slinked on behind Mafa towards the fresh kill. She didn't know why someone would be stupid enough to just leave it lying around all unguarded like that, but she wasn't about to complain. As she reached the meat, the scent of blood assaulted her nose, causing her stomach to growl quite furiously. She had eaten before, but it was nothing compared to what she was now faced with. She had just snatched up a bit of the remaining flesh when her head jerked up. They had company.
Great..
Her ears perked forward and her nose twitched as she watched the older pup take a full defensive stance. Opting to do the same, she pinned her ears back once more and stared at the one that might try and take away the first decent meal she'd had in a while.
((I can't believe I forgot to check guilds today! o.o))
