Colche puurred, another wordy person, she caught most of it though, certainly her understanding had greatly improoved too. "wassit?" She looked at the female curiously, she couldn't read from the page, seh couldn't really read anything she hadn't read before, or been taught how to read. That didn't make her any less interested.
"Nita" she echoed looking at the page once again with a smile and a lick to her furry lips, her tail tip twitching as usual. "Nice, big..Big book, Col.." she paused, obviously she was mentally thinking of what she was meant to be saying "I no read..good." She lookeda little sad at that but pointed at the book any way "Red" she could read that bit, red was a colour, there were lots of colours. She knew her eyes were blue and her fur was pretty much yellow and black and that her hair was black too. They were things she had gleaned from ehr books but she couldn't read everything in front of her, she needed a little help still, she had a long way to go.

"It's called a red panda." Nita flipped a few pages and pointed at a large black and white animal. "And this is a giant panda." She shifted slightly so Colche could see the book more easily.
Nita couldn't honestly imagine not being able to read well; books at had been a huge part of her entire life, and once she'd caught on to reading for herself, she had dived into the worlds they opened up for her.
"Do you like to read, Colche?" She smiled, freckles prominent on her cheeks.

"Red panda" she statesd looking at the pages "Giant panda" she mimicked looking at the words. At Nitas question she gave a vigerous nod though "uh huh, like readin' lots, 'n' lots" she grinned broadly showing all of those fangy teeth taht could in theory be a dangerous thing but had never become so for the perfectly innocent blue eyed femme. "Am learning..not..good..soon tho" she smiled. She wondered and had asked Aubrey before if she would ever be like everyone else, if she would be able to speak like them at least. She hoped so but it was hard. Her vocabulary had improoved in leaps and bounds since the descovery of DVD's but she was still limited.

Nita couldn't help but giggle at Colche's answer. She was so cute! "Does someone here teach you? What do you like to read?"
Of course, Nita had no idea what had happened to Colche, or why she seemed to be a teenager, but was only learning to read. She wondered how much she could ask without offending, or even if the girl would understand.

Colche grinned broadly, she liked to be asked about her stories "I likes pooh bear, n princesses, n frog prnce..Cinderella an snow whites an sleepin' beauty" She grins and puurrs happily, she loved her stories, she wante so much to be a princess like snow white. Aubrey said she was one and the animal she was said she was too. "Col..I'ma princess Cheetah" she giggled, she delighted in informing people of her animal. "I have leap pad, it reads, an Aubrey reads too, like stories, lots." She nodded an affirmative her blue eyes grinning in a delighted manner.

Nita nodded. "Those are lots of good books, Colche. I really liked Winnie the Pooh when I was little." She flipped back to the page about red pandas, skimming through the information idly. "I heard you singing before you came in. 'The Little Mermaid' was one of my favorite movies ever." She smiled and fiddled with the end of one long braid.
"A princess cheetah?" she asked, confused. She knew vaguely how the Leap Pad worked, having seen commercials and whatnot.

Colche nodded. She knew which book her picture was in, she remembered Ambrose showing it to her. Jumping off the couch she went to find the book returning quickly and flipping throught he pages until seh found cheetahs and the singular image with bold writing underneath that said 'King cheetah' Princess cheetah" she grinned Pointing at the picture of the unusually marked cheetah. Everyone knew that little girl kings were princesses.
"I likes sleepin' beauty bestest...It nice, like furies an' prince is purty" she giggled. She liked the prince and sometimes played Sleeping beauty half expecting a prince to come, though he never did, she wasn't that dissapointed, One day ehr prince would come, Aubrey had said so.

"Ohhhhh." Nita breathed a sound of understanding, reading the caption. "That's very clever." She giggled, looking back and forth from Colche to the picture. She looked very much like the cheetah, and Nita wondered if she was changed all the way, and what Colche had looked like before.
"'Sleeping Beauty' is good too," she agreed. "Were you coming in here to watch a movie or read?"

"Dee vee dee" the femme treplied with a giggle. She still had lots of stories to watch, disney was quickly becoming her favourite and she musty certainly have watched them all at least once since she had discovered how to use the dvd player. That didn't mean she couldn't watch them again though. She was in the mood for a princess story. She giggles flickering her long fluffy tail "wanna watch..with..me" She grinned, she knew that was a correct sentence, she wanted desperately to speak like everyone else. she was getting there, slowly but definately getting there.

Nita stuck a finger between the pages of the book to hold her place. "Sure, I'll watch a movie with you." It had been far too long since she had seen any of her old favorites.
She flipped the book open to take note of the page number and set it on the floor next to the couch. She would take it back to her duplex and read through it more carefully there. Pulling a pillow out from behind her, she slipped off her sandals and put her feet up, holding the pillow in her lap like a teddy bear. It was definitely time for something old and familiar.
"You go ahead and pick," the red-head told Colche. "I'll even sing along with you." Nita grinned. Finally, someone who wouldn't be annoyed by her tendency to sing along with Disney movies.

Colche nodded and jumpped off the couch. She padded to the shelves, her walk strange, a mixture between the graceful long legged saunter of the cheetah and a shildish hop skip bounce of somone filled with energy and the lust for life. Her tail twitched as she looked down the row of disney movies. She smiled, picking out The little mermaid she went back to the DVD player and slipped it straight in. If nita liked this one lots she would happily watch it again. It was a fun movie, if a bit scary.
Taking a virtual leap on to the couch again she leans against nita, her cheek presed against the females arm as she fixed those sweet blue eyes on the screen.
A gentle puurr escaped her, she liked to watch allt he adverts, mostly because she liked to say she had seen that, and also because she didn't know that there was a skip button. As the small cheetah girl lay curled against the red head, it could be seen fairly visably that her front, the only none furry part of her body, was scattered with old scars and her left wrist still held, despite the fur, a dark callus. Most of ehr scars would fade away no doubt when that skin was replaced with the tan and black marked fur but the callus would remain forever if somewhat hidden by the fur.

'The Little Mermaid' was just fine with Nita, who had used to play Ariel in the tub when she was little, holding her breath and swimming around in the tub. She shifted her arm, putting it around Colche's shoulders so it wouldn't fall asleep with the cheetah-girl's head pressing into it.
She suppressed a giggle at the purr that emerged from the younger girl and settled down to watch the movie. The familiar music was comforting and she hummed along quietly.
The scars that were faintly visible on Colche's front caught her eye, as did the callous on her wrist. A tiny frown tugged at the corners of Nita's mouth. Such markings couldn't be accidental or self-inflicted.

"Under the sea" Colche sang along to the few bars she knew from the song humming the rest and nestling happily in Nitas lap. The puurr which echoed naturally from her chest faded as she sang though could grow quite loud when she was simply watching and enjoying the film.
Glancing up at Nita Colche giggled "Nita like Ariel" she grinned, linking the red hair of the older girl to the red headed mermaid. She liked that idea and would certainly link it from hence forth. Everyone had a nick name in Colche's mind, usually drawn from one of her stories or from the movies they watched. Usually they were nice names, This one suited Nita and she settled down once again happy to watch the film in a puury silence. She did notice the slight frown on Nitas brow but she shrugged it off. Alot of people frowned they were usually happy after a movie.

Nita giggled and sang along with most of the song, still remembering the words from the dozens of times she had seen the movie as a child.
Holding out one long braid for inspection, Nita grinned again. "Hm, I suppose I am like Ariel! Although I don't have a fishy tail." She wiggled in her seat, letting herself enjoy the sweet company of Colche and the movie.

Colche's ears twitched a little and she gave a giggle, though the appearance of the eels and ultimately Ursala made ehr hiss just a little. The lady was VERY BAD. The fact that girls could be bad people too had never occured to Colche really. men were bad and a woman had saved ehr from that pit she had lived in most of her life. However she knew now that girls could be bad too. Most girls were nice though, princesses and queens.
"Hoom" Colche looked thoughtful "Ariel gets legs" she nodded an affirmative, she had watched this film at least once before, hence why she knew some of the bars to the most catchy songs in the film. She knew the story and taht it turned out happily ever after, as stories were supposed to. "Ariel live happy ever after. nice prince" she giggles facinated with the screen once again, her attention couldn't be held away from the moving pictures for very long.
