Pumbaa smiled happily at Timon, sitting up on his back legs to grab Timon around the middle, pull him close, and hugged him tightly. "I agree!" He said, squeezing him then putting him down. "lets replant a willow branchling somewhere were we can enjoy it forever!" He said, tail wagging like a puppy dog. He snorted, leaping much like a rabbit in circles.

Timon winced, wriggling in Pumbaa's grip as he was hugged. Before he could protest, he was let go. The meercat snorted loudly at his friend, dusting himself off, then eyeing him as he bounced around.
"Alright, alright! Calm down. We'll get a branch, then plant it near that little stream near our hollow. Willows need water, y'know?"

Pumbaa, being very jolly indeed, stopped his jaunt and stood still, his tail wagging happily. With a grunt, he nodded his head rapidly, prancing over to the tree. "Aww, timon this is the best. We can watch over the tree and tell others about it and stuff. I think I like this idea. I'm so happy!" Pumbaa said with a smile, a tear glinting in his eye. "It just feels so right!"

"I swear, Pumbaa, if I see one tear fall outta them eyes, we'll drop the whole idea!" Timon ranted, crossing his arms. Then, sniffing haughtily, he stepped over to the willow and carefully bent the small willow branch. It snapped off about halfway down, and the jungle-dwelling meercat grinned, pleased at the work (although small) that he had done. He dragged the branch over to Pumbaa, proudly displaying it, as if it were some sort of trophy that he had won.
"There! Now, back to the hollow. All this thinking has got me hungry..."

Athari stumbled over an exposed tree root, at the jungle's fringe. Finally, he felt like he'd gotten somewhere he was meant to be. Of course, in his almost trancelike haste to find out what kind of place was tantalizing his nose so, he'd lost some weight, since he'd scarcely taken the time to drink water during his journey from the pridelands to here, let alone hunted down anything more than the occasional tiny rodent.
As he caught himself before his nose hit the dirt, Athari straightened, his unkempt coat making him look like quite the little straggler, although he was no longer the small cub who'd began his journey in the pridelands so long ago--he was still a cub, but he'd grown into himself more, and it showed, even in his current state of...disrepair. As he raised his maw to sniff at the air, his ears swivelled in all directions, and the pair of senses told him he wasn't too close to anything else that might be a threat to him. Whuffing out a breath that he hadn't even realized he'd been holding, Athari stalked forward, every instinct telling him to find a suitable tree to call his own, even before he took the time for some much-needed grooming.
Finding a particularly large baobab (since I couldn't find any reference to much else in the way of trees from africa other than eet or the palm), Athari used his already-formiddable claws to dig deep into the baobab's spongy, fibrous trunk. Hauling himself up the thick trunk and into the branches, Athari collapsed on one about midway up the tree, panting, half in relief, and half in exhaustion. It had been a long journey. Half-heartedly, he started to lick the trail-dust off of his paws, working his way up his forelegs, and making as short work as possible of making his glossy coat somewhat presentable.
((loong post, for me...sorry! sweatdrop ))

Pumbaa nodded his head, smiling at his short tempered friend, before he stood, walking over to the brance and picking it up delicatly in his mouth. With a snort, he nodded his head, agreeing with Timon. 'zi ageeee!" He said happily, being carefulnot to injure the branch. With delicate grace, he pranced over to the river, digging a fairly deep hole in the ground near the waters edge. Placing the branch carefully into the hole, he pushed the dug up dirt into the hole. He turned to Timon. "Lets go!"

Timon nodded, then observed the work Pumbaa had done, smiling in approval.
"Good work. Now we can head back to the hollow and...." Timon paused, his tail stiff behind him. His nose twitched, and then he darted behind Pumbaa, quivering violently.
"Something's near!" He hissed, shutting his eyes tightly.
Something WAS near. Although, if Timon had taken a moment to figure out what, he might not have spazzed. The thing, a leopard cub, had caught his friend's scents from a way off, and was now making his way towards them. The smell of another leopard was far off, far enough not to be a problem to Kago, so he stepped easily through the foliage as he went.

Pumbaa smiled, nodding happily as he gazed down at his little buddy. " I guess we can go then. I-Whats the matter Timon?" He said, turning his head to gaze back at him with a concerned look on his face. Timon was only scared when his tail became a bottle brush. Pumbaa stood up, his tail upright. Ready to protect.

And there were the two critters now. Donning his best ferocious look, Kago dug his claws into the ground, shifting slightly. Then, he leapt, landing only a few inches away from Pumbaa, and snarling loudly.
"FRESH MEAT!" He roared at the top of his lungs. Oh, man. Kago LOVED teasing Timon and Pumbaa. They were so funny when they were scared!
Timon screeched loudly, then crawled under Pumbaa's stomach, trembling.
"IT'S GONNA EAT US!"

Pumbaa stood there, Timon trembling behind him when the creature sprang with a roar. He flinched, but began to laugh upon inpact of the cubs presance. "Timon!" He said with a laugh. "Its only Kago. He won't eat you." He said, looking underneith himself to stare down at the trembling friend below. He smiled kindly, blowing through his nose at the meerkat.

Having finally restored his paws to their natural chocolatey color, Athari lay contentedly amongst the baobob branches, peeking through the leaves at the forest below. Heaving his still-growing body to its feet, he dug his nails viciously into the tree trunk once more, climbing as high as he dared before settling his body on the branch, shifting until he found a comfortable position. Within seconds, he drifted into a restless slumber, his sides rising and falling rhythmically with his near-silent breaths.

Jendayi's large body peaked out from a colorful bush and she warily trotted out into the open. Trotting over to a large tree, she gave a deep stretch while diggin her claws into the bark. Her green eyes swept the jungle floor and she raised her nose to catch a thick scent. Whatever it was she gave no heed to it's warning and she walked on through the damp jungle. She gave a wide yawn that transformed into a deep growl. Cassually she fell onto a nice spot just under a la high bush. She let her body relax and listened to the sounds of the jungle until her mind went into a sweet slumber.

"Ahaha! Oh man, guys, you shoulda seen the looks on your faces!" Kago flopped onto his side, tears rolling down his cheeks as he shook with laughter.
Timon only stuttered, staring wide-eyed out at Kago from underneath Pumbaa. After a few moments, however, he regained his senses, and aimed a kick at the childish leopard cub.
"Got no sense of respect, do you!? You scared the living grubs out of us!" Of course, he meant himself by 'us', but including Pumbaa in it made him feel a bit better about having been spooked.
Kago choked out another laugh, then flashed a grin up at both Pumbaa and Timon.
"Sorry, g-guys.... I j-just couldn't r-r-resist! Ahah!"

Pumbaa snorts, since he was quite sure he was only frightened for a few seconds. Oh, well, let timon say what he say. He lowered his rear end to the ground in a cloud of dust.
"Good one! You had us fooled. Try doing it again in a few more years. When I need waking up!" He laughed heartily,

"Like you'd ever wake up." Kago retorts, still grinning widely. He rolls back onto his feet, then lazily shakes the dirt from his back, crouching down and stretching himself out.
"Ooooooooarrrrgh! 'Ve gotta start doin' THAT more..." He yawns, one eye twitching as a small fly lands on his left ear.
Timon grumbles, then stumbles over to Kago, kicking at his tail.
"No more o'that! Scaring the daylights out of a person isn't the best way to go about making friends, y'know!"
Kago shrugs idly, then pins Timon's tail down with one paw.
"Good thing i've already got friends then, huh?" He asks, quirking one eyebrow and smiling.
