Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well... I nearly did." He admitted quietly, drawing little circles in the sand, "I remember hearing my father roar and seeing him run after some smaller creatures. I wanted him to see me as favorable in his sight so I went out to help capture them.... but when I saw the horror in their eyes it made me think. I captured the fox easily enough and my father took the others away- not even turning his gaze in my direction." He remembered it quite viberently actually... that was just a few nights before leaving his lands, "I helped sneak all the "slaves" to my den and with their help we all fled to freedom...They'll be safe here." He took a glance to the others, smiling sheepishly. They had become his family in those days in the desert- every one of them.

The juvenille blinked and smiled at his foster mother, purring happily at the sound of her voice before her question to Mwali perked his own curiousity.
His pale purple eyes looked over at the red lion as he made himself comfortable, the smell of the herbs however making the pre-teen muzzle wrinkle up at the disdainful smell of the plants, ughh, how could something that smelled so bad be good for you...oh well.
Shaking his head he quickly just looked at the firey lion and awaited his answer.
"Yeah Mwa' I wasn't around when I heard the news...so who's the 'lucky' lioness' to end up with you bro?"

A glimmer of the adolescent mischief sparked back in her amber eyes, "Well then, we best make sure you don't leave here, don't want you loosing your way and stumbling into that desert..." The name sounded faintly familiar, a lioness only a bit younger than her, she must be one of the youngest lionesses of the older generation around now that Kimondo was gone....

There was still dirt clinging to the dried blood of the male's shoulders, that dirt would attract vermants, which would not help the situation. Sighing contentedly, Koho nudged the leaf, double checking it wouldn't fall off, then her body weight shifted only slightly, her strong tail flicking to balance her. Her sleek golden coat rippled slightly as the muscles in her back flexed, settling her weight proportionally on her hinds. She carefully lifted her front paws, setting them lightly on intact portions of his upper back. He was too large for her smaller self to reach the top of his shoulder blades while sitting, so she had positioned herself so she balanced on him, and so was able to clean his shoulders easier. The dirt and blood mixture tasted strange on her rough tongue and she cleaned him like a mother would clean her cub, but she wasn't one to judge. She certainly had rid many cubs of many strange things over the years....

Wishing to change the subject, Koho looked to her son, at an odd angle of course seeing as she was still pampering Mwali, "So, little one, what did the queen have to say to you? She looks a little angry...." She trailed off, letting the sentence hang forever unfinished. Her eyes had an amused glint to them, she could never be truely angry with any cub, exasperated, yes, but anger was not an emotion she generally wore. She was simply interested in being informed, in case she needed to speak with her sister-in-law sometime.

((somehow it seems strange to be typing sister-in-law... *laughs* anyway, crappy and I know it, and I'm sorry))

"...you mean- you want me to stay here?", His whiskers flared again as he turned away, ducking his head into his shoulders in another vain attempt to hide the equivilant of a lion's blush from Koho. Not a few days ago he hardly felt that anyone wanted him so much as on the boarder of the land, now the one lioness whose opinion meant the world to him wanted him to stay. It was a step above flattering in his mind. All he wanted was acceptance really- and a chance to perhaps win her heart. Still, he felt he was undeserving of such an honor, at even a chance at such an honor. There was little to nothing that he could do for her pride, he'd be just as useless as he was back in the firekin. The most he could do was perhaps look frightening in some way.

He listened quietly to what the young one had to say, a rounded ear turning towards him to listen more carefully. A rouge male? Where they following him? "Wh-what did he look like?" He put in quicker than he probibly should have, turning to him with a rather frightened look in his emerald eyes. He managed to catch himself- a bit too late, but he caught himself none the less- and calmed himself, clearing his throat, "I-I mean... because I perhaps can drive him out if he means harm... I don't know how to fight but he doesn't know that... a-and well I look... intimidating... judging from the reactions that I get...."

((Sure ^_^

Awww I just hope that I can do something with Maji, they said all the misties are dead but I've been active with him and I still wanna be. crying Poor little guy all alone out there.

Do you think Mwali would have gotten news about his pride from like a bird or something? o.o; ))

(( Hehe, that's up to MidnyghtIce too whee ))

(( Yeah, I've been wanting Mwali better for a while, that way he could be all cute and flirty and stuff xd

As for an update it sounds like since the guild's getting a make-over a lot of the inactive members have had their characters killed off to make up for them being gone. I'm not sure if everyone was assessed or asked about this so I'm not quite sure whose still alive or not. They're using a plegue to make up for this. I went over some of the plot thingers they have:



So that puts both my charries in a bit of a spot. I was thinking either to have Maji (my mistweaver) seek out another pride (probibly the pridelands) to survive (it seems he's the last one now crying ) or hope that someone else will wonder into there lol. It's getting boring posting alone.

Mwali's in a tough spot because his nephews and neices are orphened and out there alone. sweatdrop At least we can't say it's dull anymore, lots of ways we can go with all this, heh.

So I dunno what you guys wanna do. It would be cool to catch eachother on at the same time over aim or something and talk it out before the 26th (when all this is going to happen).))

((I just really want Koho to stay with her family, maybe she could journey with Mwali to the Firekin lands and take care of them until one of them is old enough, then come back? I dunno, I just don't want her to permanently seperate from the pridelands pride, they're her family whee *thinks*

Yeah, once Mwali is healed up he could hear about the devastation and want to check up on his nieces/nephews and Koho could come with and then they could raise the children until one is ready to rule over their siblings, then let come back to the pride lands, it could also possibly build a tie between the two prides, but that would be a major plot line involving everyone, and dust would have to clear it.... seeing as that would seriously involve all of the characters that are existent in some way or another...

Oh, and I'm availiable pretty much all this week at any time during the day, school is out for february break!))
