The cub whisked around the tall grass. Well, tall for him, but for dad it was small. But dad wasn't here to remind him of how little he was! The oldest of the litter grinned as he moved around the grass, staling none other than a butterfly, just waiting for a moment to pounce.
It was in the prielands territory, about noon time. It was a grin that played across his maw as he saw the butterfly land on a rock, and he leaped.
But poor Chokuto flew clear over the rock, only to notice there was a small drop behind it, and fall to a thump on te ground. He'd forgotted that, occasionally, there were these small, straight drops in the plains. He liked to call them cliffs! Of course, it wasn't much to get hurt. But it didn't mean it was pleasant either!
"Owwies. " He snorted, having landed on his front paws, then tumbled flat on his back. Now Chokuto sat up, rubbing his head, one eye closed, then looking around.

A rustle in the grasses ahead made Fei flinch a little, her ears spinning towards the noise like tiny satellites. She wasn't about to stumble upon some sort of nest, was she? She remembered tripping into a hole a very angry ground-burrower chasing her away soon after not so long ago. Floating on a breeze suddenly over the grass came a butterfly, however, almost like a small beacon of guaranteed safety. And the noise that followed it... well, it didn't sound very threatening at all!
Stalking a little closer to the sound, the cub located the flat rock and paused to glance around. " 'lo?" She called as she walked a little closer to the stone, climbing up on it to have a better look over the grass. That was when she spotted the male, poking her pink snout over the lip of the rock. Casting her orange eyes over him, she giggled softly, canting her head a little. He did look awfully silly to her in such a pose. "You're awful dirty. Are you playin' some sorta dirt game?"

Wait. Had he just -heard- something? He blinked his brown eyes for a moment, looking up at the rock, then squeaking in surprise when he saw another cub. had it seen him fall?! He sta up tall, puffing up his chest a bit, to show he had 'meant-to-do-that'.
"What? " He blinked, looking down at himself. Dirty..? He was maybe a bit dusty from the fall but.. Wait. Had she assumed he was white, like his brother? "No.. Its my color. " He blinked, looking up again and tilting his head. Speaking of colors.. What in the world was she?

She blinked as he sat up and attempted to puff up, another small peel of giggles muffling itself into her paws as she was reminded of the strange green creatures near the watering hole. Her tail flicked itself slowly over her head, amusedly. What a funny little character!
"Your color?" She echoed him, leaning boldly over the rock to peer a little closer at him, though she was ready to jerk her head back at any moment. "Well, if you're not playin' a dirt game, why're you down there? Is it hide-and-go-pounce?" Just as she was finishing up the sentence, something alighted itself upon the end of her nose. The butterfly! Perhaps it thought her some sort of flower... Feimata went stock still, however, her eyes crossing a little to eye the insect. There was a small keening sound in the back of her throat as she got a good look at the thing's large eyes, but she dared not move, attempting to shift her lips so that she could try to puff air up at it and move it.

"I was chasing.. " He stopped, and blinked up as he saw something flutter towards the girl. He scurried around the edges of the 'mini cliff', and got back up. By the time he arrived there, iit had landed on.. her nose.
"Don't.. move. " He said, crouching and building up his paws beneath him, ready to launch at the butterfly-- unfortunately attached to the pink girlss nose.
