Her head had been lowered to the ground, resting, as she satiated herself on something small she had caught sometime after Senna had left. She went to visit Swa, but could get nothing out of her besides the usual lazy ol' yawn. She came back to the spot she had been earlier with Senna--her usual spot, hoping the sister would have had some sense knocked into her. Besides, with the other three sisters gone, why would mother have allowed Senna permission to leave as well?
Her tail flicked lazily in the air, and her eyes gazed in the same lethargic manner to the skies, now beginning to darken. Would everyday pass by like this? Aside from the sudden silliness from Senna earlier, the day had been pretty dull... or was that in fact Senna's lingering argument in her mind, attempting to persuade?
No, that couldn't be it. And somehow, as Mikaili looked to the skies, she could sense something brewing, but could not tell... Could not tell what was to become of the future.
A movement in the grass alerted her to the following call of her name. She blinked twice in succession, wondering whether or not to be worried of the excitement contained in that voice. And so she got up, approaching Senna, and called back, "What is it, Senna..?"

"Oh nothing, you know," the lioness said, nonchalant as she settled down near her sister, "a little of this, a little of that, a little of MOM SAID I COULD GO!"
With that triumphant little exclamation she smiled smugly and stared at her sister.
She hadn't really questioned it. Anyone (but her) could see that Senna was totally helpless on her own, prone to laziness in the face of hunger, and whining in the face of adversity. She had no sense, and no real beneficial qualities to attract companions. No looks were worth the trouble the girl was. But to her, she was grand, magnificent, and due to succeed endlessly.
And her sister had elected not to come have an adventure, which to her made no sense. And she was sure as hell going to point it out.
"I mean, you know, it's a shame you're not coming, because mom and dad seem to think it's a great idea. I think I might even be a hero of our family, you know, bringing home a handsome new mate to help out around the home, and such. But of course, it probably won't be completely dull, so I understand that you wouldn't want to come," she said, completely self-satisfied.

Mikaili stayed still, dumbfounded. She locked onto Senna's eyes, trying to discern whether or not she was lying. Why would mother..?
"..What?" was all she could say. Senna wasn't exactly the most mature of the bunch, but then why would their mom let her go out alone, to fend for herself? Senna must be joking.
Then she started to shake her head, saying, "Even if both mom and dad said yes, for whatever reason, Senna... How are you going to live? Survive? I mean, here, we have everyone's support. Mom and dad's knowledge. You really don't think you can take care of yourself out there by yourself, Senna?"
Then she stopped, knowing that Senna probably would think she was able enough. She sighed, wishing that Senna would one day mature into someone who knew of their limitations and place. But that wasn't Senna's personality now, was it?
She started shaking her head unconsciously once more and said quietly, "You can't go, Senna."

Senna continued the smug look all throughout her sisters logical conclusions. Senna didn't care. She was sure she'd be fine. Hunting couldn't be as hard as it looked, other lions must all be friendly, and hyena's were just stories that childeren were told to scare them. Everything would always work out because everthing always had.
"Yes I can. I got mom and dads permission, not like I really needed it, I mean, I am an adult, but I got it and now I'm going on a Jorney for True Love, and you can't stop me."
She stretched herself out lazily before standing back to her full height.
"I just figured you'd want to know I was going."
She paused for a moment, aparently thinking about something.
"Well, bye then," she finished firmly, storming off confidently out of the clearing, and away from her home.
