"I choose to call him Uncle, i have since i was a cub." It had been easier to say that than his uncle's name at the time and he had just become used to it. "You can call him Kichembe, unless you just wish to call him uncle too." He smiled softly at her. "Others it is considered polite to call them by their title. The rules of this pride, we refer to them as the Mlfame when we are speaking to them. It shows respect."
He had a lot to teach her still it seemed. It would be nice though and he knew she enjoyed learning things.
"If you to like i can take you back into the pride. Nya and the others should be returning soon with a meal." It would be easier to tell everyone that Dynatos was home then rather than having to hunt each of the down.

"It seems as though you still have much to tell me." She huffed softly, tugging lightly at his ear again until she felt her stomach rumble at the mention of a meal. "Food would be good." She nodded slowly, smiling as she glanced up at the older of the two males. "... What would you like to be called?"

"Others will help too." He smiled as she tugged at his ear. "The other females will help you understand everything." He knew everyone acted as a family even if they weren't. They would welcome her as their sister and she would have them to help her learn along with his own teaching. "Food would be nice, it has been a while since we had time to hunt."
"Then come with me." He motioned for the other two to follow him. "You may call me what you wish Tapanga, most do around here." He laughed softly.

"If you say so..." Her sigh was almost dramatic as she got up to follow after the elder male, knowing Dynatos would do so as well. She couldn't recall ever truly getting along with any of the females that she had crossed paths with before, but she would try this time. Seeing Dynatos smile about it all would be worth it.
"... What if they call you something that you don't like just because they wish to?"

He followed after his uncle once Tapanga had gotten up. He knew the others would like her. She was perfect in every way and they wouldn't be able to fault her without finding something to balance the fault out.
"I've yet to had that happen. Some times cubs try but they learn quickly enough that rude mouths attract heavy paws."

She smiled as she trotted after the elder male, her smile seeming a bit more genuine as she settled in behind him alongside Dynatos. "I can see why Dynatos would want to return... Even if it is nothing like my jungle."

"It is a nice place to call home." He nodded as he headed down the slope into the center of the prides lands. "Fresh water, plenty of hunting space, and others who call you family even if you aren't by blood."

"Family..." She knew the word although it seemed foreign coming from her own mouth. It was something that others had; something that she'd observed but paid little mind to. It hadn't ever been something that she'd thought too long on, preferring her own freedom... And yet here she was, about to commit herself to something like that.
She stepped closer to Dynatos, falling silent again so that she could take in the scenery around them, trying to remember everything that she could.

He leaned over and nuzzled her gently as they followed after Kichembe. He knew this was a big step for Tapanga and it was all the more special that she was willing to to these lengths for him.
He passed by where they cubs were playing toward the center of the pride lands. He could hear voices heading their direction and knew that must be the Zengea and their kill. It would be a good day to celebrate with a big kill.

She looked up from the conversation she'd been having about the hunt, eyes going wide for a moment before she took off, touched by a moment of youthful remembrance. "Dynatos!" She lunged herself at the male who had once been smaller than her with every intention of tackling him, paying no mind to his company.
Under any other circumstances she may have been more comfortable with something like this, but being new and not knowing what sort of relation this female might be to Dynatos she tensed on the verge of growling, claws sinking into the soft dirt beneath her paws.

He looked when he heard a voice and his eyes widened as he saw a familiar reddish brown streak coming for him. Stepping away from Tapanga slightly so she wouldn't get caught he loosened his muscles knowing that she was going to bowl into him eventually.
He hit the dirt easily and rolled so she wouldn't end up on top of him. ".. hello to you too Mwin."
He chuckled slightly as Dynatos was taken off his feet before he looked at Tapanga. "Don't worry. She has no romantic intentions toward your mate. "

She leaned down, touching her nose lightly to Dynatos's as she grinned, content enough with having him partially pinned. "I was wondering when you were going to come back. You're late for several meals, you know." Smirking she stepped back so that he could get up off of the ground. "And you missed being the first one to greet my cubs."
Realizing that she'd let her claws out the moment she heard 'Uncle' talking she relaxed a bit, retracting them as she watched the two. It was clear from the body language and the way she spoke that what the male had said was true, at least.

He raised a brow as he pulled himself up and shook the dust out of his mane. "I wasn't late for any meals and ... you had cubs?" He hadn't thought Mwin would do something like that so soon. "I thought you preferred hunting to mothering?" He smirked before stepping back over next to Tapanga.

"Mm, I still do... But that doesn't change that I have three of them; all girls." She grinned, looking him over for a moment before turning her gaze to the female that Dynatos had moved to stand beside. "... And what about you? I thought you preferred teasing girls to keeping company with them."
Her own brow lofted slightly at that as she tilted her head. "One can't do both? Or is it just that most can't take a joke?"

"Tapanga isn't just any girl." he smirked and nuzzled his mate. "I never would have thought you'd settle down with someone Mwin, or that you'd want to have little ones without settling." It seemed a bit odd to think of her as a mother.
