jfdasklfjaskl;dj!!
And there came that heart attack now! God forbid there wasn't a day where Yaxha had to loom next to his companion to make sure that she didn't.... y'know.. suddenly get mauled by something or other or other or yeah.
Blah blah blah.
Dude just snorted and made a point of rolling a small rock towards him for the sake of flinging it at one of the Hippie duo's tails. Of course he had to make sure he'd hit them and not Tyki before he flung it, but seriously!
RAaWWWRRRGGGHHH!
"Well," Yaxha finally said, "You two certainly can't hunt for yourselves for the time being..."
Oh ho?
And of course with a touch of his nose to Ira'Quinh's cheeck (Aww, rabu rabu~) he lifted his head to motion out into the grasses. "After several days of rain, the grasses will be muddy, the herdbeasts will be coming out to get proper water and graze, and the weakest of the herds will be falling more and more behind to become an easier catch.
It's a good time for me to catch something, no?"
..
..
Dude had eaten YESTERDAY. Not hungry, kthnx. Not hungry at all! Okay, maybe a little snack wouldn't have been bad, but seriously! What the HELL? This male just wanted to go off and hunt and leave him and his companion in company of the crazy lioness?

Yep, heart attack away-- just as predicted!
Thankfully, however, any inclination to MAUL the close-proximity hippie was diverted as Artyki picked up on the less familiar male's comment, expression waxing baffled for a moment as it all sank in. Just... wait, hunting? But she'd eaten-- ... uh actually it had been a few days since she'd last hunted, BUT SHE WAS VERY CAPABLE OF FENDING FOR HERSELF A--
SLOPSPLASH!
Okay, that latest attempt at getting back up had wound up earning her a nice smear of mud across one cheek. SOB. THE HUMILIATION OF IT ALL.
And of course Eshe had completely missed that stone whizzing by her tail, too engrossed with Yaxha (god her smile SCREAMED OF THE BLISSFUL HAPPEE) to pay any notice to it.
"I think that sounds like an absolutely splendid idea, if you were willing to entertain it," she purred sweetly, cheerfully, in such a friendly way that the other lioness was tempted to be ill. Seriously, those two were just... god, it was sickening! "I'll stay here then and enjoy some idle conversation with the others then, hmm?"
... Oh god, they really WERE being left with the crazy hippie!
s**t!
SOMEBODY SAVE THEM.
OR SHOOT THEM TO PUT THEM OUT OF THEIR MISERY.

Yaxha touched his nose to his female companions, another one of the sickeningly sweet gestures of the duo (Seriously, Dude was wondering why they didn't just run off into a bush and get busy already!) before he rose to his feet to follow the request he'd just been given.
"I'm sure there will be enough for everybody present, given how much Ira'Quinh and I eat alone.." Which was true. They couldn't finish off an Antelope by themselves.. and they certainly had two other more 'grouchy' mouths to account for.
So it wasn't long after his little 'affectionate' gesture that he was off to be the VALIANT MALE he was.
Leaving his female companion alone with two grouchy black and red lions who just wanted to frown at her. Or at least Dude did while he couldn't feel his rump. Mmnngh.
So he just settled for sitting there with a muddy rump, leering at one female, and then to the other. Peh. If they weren't obliviously happy, they were extremely ANGRY.
ANGREH FEMALE! Who he was going to cut out of his life as soon as he ******** could (No pun intended there).
"Is he even a good hunter?"

Artyki was wondering the very same thing, really; why didn't those two just get on with the stupid unfings all by themselves and LEAVE THEM ALONE WHILE THEY WERE DOING IT?
But alas, no, there went Yaxha (or 'the sort of green jerk' as Tyki's brain had labeled him), leaving the half-crippled duo to suffer one absolutely peculiar, frustrating and altogether spacy seeming hippie for GOD ONLY KNEW HOW LONG while the hunting went down.
Thankfully for them, however--
"Oh, there's no one better!" Eshe was elated to chirp, turning her gaze away from the lioness she'd plunked herself next to (which made her all the more vulnerable for a good throat ripping, OH THE SUFFERING OF BEING UNABLE TO EXECUTE IT). "Yaxha is the best hunter I've ever known-- not quite certain just why, though perhaps he's simply eager for the liver..."
Uuuuh, o.. kay?
That didn't make a shred of sense in Artyki's brain, but she wasn't about to question it, just SIGHING heavily and using her one GOOD paw to start swiping mud off that offended cheek.
"Do you enjoy making no sense whatsoever, girl?"
"Hmm? Oh, very much so! ... Or not. I'm not certain of the proper answer, actually..."
"... Do you enjoy acting like an outright fool?"
"... Hmm? Oh, did you say something?" DAMN HER CONVENIENT DISTRACTION, IT WAS MADDENING. "I'm sorry, I was simply admiring the clouds a bit; aren't they beautiful? Certainly an overcast environment isn't something to hope for every day, but on occasion, it's quite beautiful..."

Dude, on the other paw, was watching the 'Swampy Water' guy as he took his trek off to be the 'mighty hunter' (who still had questionable skills even at the other woman's insistance of otherwise. This 'EeraQuinn' was just... daffy). Why would the male be heading so surely out in the direction he'd chosen when there were no herdbeasts in sight?
Certainly he'd get lost.
...
....
Which was actually a rather appealing idea to him, by all means. Since if he did get lost, maybe the white female would go LOOKING for him and leave him and the stupid black female alone to hiss and spit at each other and him to hopefully toddle away on his own numb a**.
Then again, free food was NOT a good thing to pass up, as willingly as the 'hunter' was going to get it for them (or his EeraQuinn'). Then maybe the two of them after the strange male had this '-
"Liver? He certainly grabs the most nutritious bits, now doesn't he?" Dude commented. HE frankly would have been chowing down on things such as ...
.....
Well, a kidney, or bone marrow or something. Or just good ol' meat. Mmmm.

Aaah, but Eshe knew in her heart of hearts that Yaxha was a splendid hunter who would manage to find those herdbeasts in no time, following the winds and the grasses and the spirits until he found the prey he was destined to down! She had absolute faith in him, as any good companion would... which was more than could be said for the other two, huh?
Artyki certainly didn't seem keen to give him the time of day, anyway.
"He must," the more pleasant female mused, blissfully unaware of whatever ragey seething going on nearby and shrugging lightly. "It's his favorite part of the hunt. He's always muttering to it, too. Appreciating the thing that let him have it. I find it rather fascinating..."
Yeah, and the way she said it, fascinating was just codeword for LOVELY AND WONDERFUL or something. Stupid mushy c--
"So, how long have you two been together?
... WHAAAAAAAAAT?
Okay, so maybe she meant it as nothing more than a harmless 'traveling companions' type thing, but it still got a disbelieving GAPE out of Tyki anyway. Seriously, since they were obviously fighting and hissing at one another... how long did she THINK they'd been 'together'!?
She was only dogging Dude because he'd dominated her and she needed to take her place of superiority back!

....... Wow yeah, those two were totally hot for each other, he could tell. They HAD to have been together for at least a couple of weeks or so, but certainly he was.... irked by the whole feeling. What the hell man!
How fast did crazies hook up like that!? Or were they just crazy because there were a few buns in the oven? Was that it? He certainly was hoping not! BAH. Creepy and creepier! A-
..
....
Greeaaaaatttt. Time for them to talk about 'their' relationship. Well, what could he say in particular to irk the female who had pawed him, HARD, in the gut? HMM? Welllll... "She's a hussy I met in the rain yesterday." Or the day before.
Not like it was his job to remember the particulars of time on this one. She could remember it JUST as easily if she felt it so important afterall.
"And then she got our asses stuck in that stupid rock!" he added, just for the sake of adding insult onto insult and maybe ready to toss some injury into the whole thing as well. Yeah, he was a little irritated from having a sore hiney. And knowing fully well that their next meal was at the mercy of that stupid love-struck lion.
Mmmngh.

Oh, surely it had been longer than a couple of weeks since Eshe and her dearest swamp-colored buddy had met! Or even if it hadn't been, it certainly felt that way, what with all of the ridiculous adventures they'd been on each day, and the constant death-defying dumb luck stunts and accidents and failures she never even recognized as happening.
But she certainly wasn't crazy in the slightest! That was all madman's talk! Which wasn't her! So... so there!
"A hussy? Well, that's--"
"Preposterous insult from the mouth of a bitter fool," Tyki spat before she could finish, letting loose with a caustic HISSSNARL as her claws (well, on one side anyway) flexed in the mud. "Might I add to the statement that you were the one who rudely tried shoving me into it!"
"... Hmm, vigorous conversation this is!" And count on Eshe to be HAPPILY BLITHE while the crippled lions hissed and warred.
"If you hadn't been so pushy and smart-mouthed then perhaps none of this would have happened in the first place!"

"Oh, it's MY fault now? I offered you a spot in my original den, I offered you a place in the one that was in higher ground, and YOU are the one who attacked me for it! All you had to do was accept that you would fit in the damn thing better and take it when I insisted and instead you had to shove my bulky shoulders in there as well to get us stuck!"
Oooh.
Lover's quarrel! Or something like it, as Dude's own claws flexed a little at the female's snapping right back at him, baring his front teeth at her in an irritated manner.
...
....
STARING WAR WAS A GO! Or at least it was for several long minutes until the scene was ruined. By the hero of Ira'Quinh's life making his return with a rather bulky looking antelope in his jaws, dragging it along before he was at the white lioness's side again.
YOUR LOVE, HE HAS RETURNED WITH FOOD FOR YOU!
And of course he was even giving her the offer of first choice, awwww~
"I seem to have walked into a situation with two lions who are going to ultimately end up hungry if they don't stop hissing at each other, as they do have to sit at the table together.

"And you could have simply taken the damned den without attempting to force my hand!" Or my a**! Oh, someone was certainly a little less than happy over the situation! Not that this was particularly surprising given how Tyki and Dude had been at eachother's throats since meeting (rather literally), but still!...
Uh, on to a LEERING contest. Because it wasn't just staring to her, she was growling, and hissing, and flexing her claws and flattening back her ears and just making it widely known that she was Not Pleased. And despite her being Not Pleased, somehow, all the while, Eshe remained cheerfully oblivious.
... Perhaps it was because the little lioness had been gazing off at the distance and waiting for her man to return, odd eyes lighting up and tail flicking cheerfully when, at last and as expected, Yaxha came back into view dragging his nice plump kill.
Amazingly timely he was, really!
"Mmm, looks just wonderful, Yaxha, excellent, excellent!" Mmm, her stomach was even starting to rumble and gurgle at the sight of it, licking her fangs before she smiled. "Join us now, won't you two? The exercise will be sure to help those muscles uncoil!"
... Which meant that, of course, Tyki and Dude were both on their own to wobble over while she hummed a note and began tearing the flesh off one nice, meaty thigh.
........ Whiiich of course left the viscera untouched so Yaxha could fix out his favorite organ for the usual ritual, yummy!
... And left Tyki to WILL HERSELF UPRIGHT (which only worked halfway) and start the FAILING ATTEMPT to hobble over.
Because, as disgusting as it was to accept charity, the sad fact was that she kind of needed it. SOB.

And Dude just leered at the sappy duo as they started their twisted ritual of starting to rip open their dinner.. lunch.. whatever, Yaxha seeming to know exactly what it was that 'Eeraquinn' would be going for and moving do dig his own claws into the meat of the belly to pull it along gently before innard juices came spilling out.
Which he also lapped up a little of, before continuing his quest to rip out the liver, quite content with it once he had it and even mumbling something or other to himself.
Dude just.. frowned at the entire scene, making a point to bear his teeth at the female up until he realized how the raburabu couple had set the 'table' up...
... This meant he had to sit near Tyki, now didn't it? Of course, this earned a frown, but Dude too had hobbled up to his feet to make his way over to the meal and sitting himself as far away from Tyki as he could while still being allowed a bite of the action.
No pun intended. However, since the insides HAD been opened up, it was time to Dude to take advantage of the scene and get him a kidney to nom on. A messy job in and of itself, but easy enough...
...
..
As long as Tyki didn't want one too. That would have just started a food fight to add to their hissing while the other duo just ate blissfully in peace. Hell, Yaxha had even bitten a piece off of his favorite choice-part to offer to his lady-love!
Aww, sharing the things he enjoyed so she could possibly appreciate them too~

Awww, sharing was such an adorably lovey-dovey gesture, too-- and one that Eshe seemed delighted to participate in (albeit blissfully unaware of how mushy it looked), pausing in her chipper bone-stripping to chirp a thank you and take the offered bit for a testing chew.
Chew, chew, chew chew chew and--
"... It's very good!" More thrilled than ever by this new discovery, she beamed more widely than ever, tail flicking and radiating such cheer that Artyki was seized by the sudden impulse to vomit. Making it even worse, too, the little lioness then return the gesture, suddenly piping up with an "oh, I know!" and using one paw to tear into the back of the kill, just around the flank, for...
"This part." She'd freed up a nice bloody slab of red muscle with some work, giving it a light yank to drag off the hip. "It's the best, between the ribs and the rear on the side. It tastes best of all the things I've tried."
... Yeeeah, Tyki was definitely going to vomit if she payed attention to the sharing any longer, quite content to plunk herself down and take a k--
HEY!
Well dammit, looked like the jackass had already snagged one for himself, but she'd be DAMNED if he got ahold of that other one and, with her one good paw, shoved herself (clumsily) forward to tear it out, bearing her fangs in a bit of a warning "STAYBACK! D<" despite the lack of eye contact.
HMPH.
THIS PART WAS HERS, AND NO MAN WAS GONNA TAKE IT.
She'd just tear his arm off if he tried!

Ohae, she approved! EXCELLENT! Though it seemed now he got to try some of her favorite choice of flesh as well from the buffet, placing a paw on the edge of the spot of muscle to tear away a piece of it, chewing on it as tentatively as Ira'Quinh just had. Nom nom nom nom. Delicious!
"Mm! It is quite good, actually. It likely gets a lot of work from the antelope and builds up a lot of nutrients for flavor as well." Yes yes, he knew it came off as a bit of a 'health commentary', but who said it couldn't be healthy AND delicious!
They certainly thought it was. And of course, Yaxha did pull off a couple more bites of HIS favorite bit of any meal to set aside for his dearest Ira'Quinh before he resumed devouring his piece while the other two GAGGED at their affectionate exchanges.
Dude half-gagged, half hissed at Tyki for stealing the other piece of HIS favorite part of the feast, frowning a bit and just going about chewing on his piece of choice while pondering which part he would be going for next now that half his meal had been shanked by the hussy.
Stupid hussy.
Stupid!

If only the latter pair could have gotten along as nicely as the former, but alas, no-- even Eshe was starting to lose her chipper smile at the sound of snarly hissing going on, face glazing over in a look of vague perplexity. Really now, was it necessary to make such funny noises over dinner?
And weren't there enough kidneys for both of them to share?
"Well a lack of conflict would require him to cease that crude domination of the carcass!" Tyki had snapped, obviously rather grouchy, though it was aimed more at the subject of her frustrations than the one she was responding to. Hmph, she'd be damned if she lost out on her part of the spoils!
And she munched on that bloody misshapen little organ as spitefully as she could, too, just daring him to interupt.
"... We've plenty to all be satisfied, I would think..." muttered Eshe, taking up another bite of that lovely liver for herself before it was back to smiles.
If her words had been meant for the others, said others had just ignored her. Oh well... They'd work it out somehow, right?
And look, with how offbalance and crippled the dark female was, she was practically forced to lean on Dude to stay upright! It would've almost been sweet looking... if there hadn't been so much hissing and spitting and bristling.
Such was TWU WUV?

"Well if you keep snarling at each other, I'll steal both of your shares from you, so shut up and eat." Yaxha said with a very.. annoyed look on his face, before taking another bite from that spot of muscle that Ira'Quinh had shown him before moving to settle on his back, his legs stretching into the air hiiiiiiiigh above him.
Streeetttttttttch!
"It's a pleasant day, the sun is shining, and you both have names, I'm sure, so stop fighting over what you both have a good share of, mm?" he said. Huh, he spoke like he didn't have a name...
..
But then again, it was likely that his dearest Ira'Quinh had converted him to the idea of actually needing a 'name' that came from experience and not the name that the parental unit gave to one. He really was a touch whipped, but alas, such was the thing that love would do to a male.
Strangely to him, though. As he'd never gone into this 'join me on my path' thing expecting to develop such strong feelings for his female companion.
However, Yaxha's relaxed attitude about the entire ordeal caused Dude to hiss at him as well! ANGER!!
And of course before he snapped back at the male, he had to chow down on his kidney before someone else ran off with it!
"Tch. You say that like you're nameless." he stated flatly. Then again, this was a pow-wow of nobody knowing anybody else's name (except for the 'EeraQuinn's, blugh), so how did this guy and his 'woman' communicate with one another, HMM?
