"We can play tag... or maybe puzzles?" She asked, smiling at him. The little prince who didn't even know he was called that. But it didn't matter much. Moto had never really been a stickler for titles, "I could hide things and you can see if you can find them..." She tilted her head, tapping her lips. What had she played with her children when they were young? It had always been tricky since they were seers... if the three of them worked together they could always figure out what she was planning for them.
"What do you like to do Risasi?" She asked, smiling, "We can play something you enjoy. I'm sure I'll like anything you do... but if you can't think of anything, I'll try and help, okay?" She offered him, wanting to play something he'd enjoy, not just her.

"I don't...know...." his head fell, trying to think of times he'd played with his sisters. The only problem was that he hadn't ever played with his sisters. After his brother left, he had no one to play with but himself and mamma.
"We can just do one of your games!" Risasi's face lit up again, trying to move on to the game ahead. He had never played with anyone except mamma, so this would be fun, he could just tell.

"Okay..." Xinavane told him, deciding she could take a few minutes of break for now. She couldn't work all the time, now could she? "I'm going to go find some items... then I'll hide them, and you try to find them, okay? It's like treasure hunting. And I'll keep it all in the pride so you don't have to go too far to find them." She smiled, thinking of some trinckets she could hide for the boy.
"Does that sound like a fun game to you?" She asked.

"Yes, yes, of course it does!" it was something new, and although he had never played such a game, it held promise. Besides, mamma's best friend came up with it, so it had to be amazing, right?
"Do I have to close my eyes? Will I get clues to where they are?" the questions stumbled out of his eager mouth, wholely looking forward to the game.

Xinavane smiled, "I'll show them to you before I hide them, so you'll know what they look like. And once you're sure, then you close your eyes, and I'll hide them and come back so you can look for them. How does that sound?" She asked, not intending to go far. She didn't want to leave the boy alone with his eyes closed after all.
And she had a good idea of what she could use, "I have three things for you to find. I'll go get them if you like."

"Yes yes!" Risasi almost shouted the words out, though he didn't want to sound demanding. He flicked his ears around, anxious about what she would bring out.
He huddled on the ground, in a laying position, while he waited for her to retrieve the items. He wiggled his haunches back and forth, digging his claws into the dirt.

She went quickly to her den, the returned, setting down the three items. One, a shiny purple stone, the other a rainbow-shell with a silvery side, and the third a bird-skull that looked like a hawk of some kind, though it was hard to tell. "Here they are. Get a good look at them, then I'll hide them for you." She told him, grinning.
She was actually... having a lot of fun. What a nice turn for her day.

Eyes wide, Risasi stared long and hard at the three items, trying his best to commit them to memory. The skull seemed to be just about the size of his head, though it probably seemed bigger to a small cub. That one wasn't too hard to remember. The other two, however, proved to be more difficult. The stones seemed similar, though they weren't.
Once he had finished with his look, he squeezed his bi-colored eyes shut and twirled in a circle while he waited for the lioness to return from hiding them.

Xinavane smiled and picked them up. She hid one under a tree, another at the mouth of her own den, and the skull in the middle of the pride. She didn't want that to break, she was rather fond of it. You didn't usually find something so neat in such good shape. Then she ran back to Risasi.
"Remember! They're all somewhere inside the pride. Go look around, explore, and when you find one, bring them back here to me." She reminded him, "Find them all, and you win the game!"
Opening his eyes, he was thrilled to start his game, and he bounded off to search.
