Bored.
That's the only feeling that washed over Mauja's body right now.
Sprawled out on his back, his orange eyes stared straight up towards the blue sky, watching the clouds drift by lazily. I mean, it was downright uncanny that someone as erratic as this could just be laying there, doing nothing.
Normally, Mauja would be flying, or kidnapping some dog pups. But today......
So he waited for something else to come along, to entertain him. In the meantime, he examined the bruises on the bottom of his from paws that he received from his last 'flying' excursion.

Not having much to do did have its perks though. If Jo had been occupied he probably wouldn't have noticed another, much like himself, making his way over. The other was also a cheetah, male, though dark brown in color. It wasn't unusual for him to run into other cheetahs, actually, but what sort of confused him was why this one was in such a hurry. Jo stopped where he stood when he noticed the oncoming company, keeping his red eyes focused just in case he did something suspicious.
When Jo felt the other was close enough he lifted a paw, hoping the cheetah would take it as a sign to either slow down or stop. "Yo," he called out - his usual, very informal greeting. It didn't fly with most, but so far he'd been alright with using it to greet other cheetahs. It was something he'd noticed not too long ago, and it had put a smile on his maw. This occasion was no exception, and though he figured his soon-to-be acquaintance would find it a little strange he didn't let the smirk falter.
"What's the rush? There's nowhere to go around here y'know. It's all the same boring scenery for miles around. Granted the occasional meal every now and again, but you know what I mean."

So it was going to be a nice encounter. The last thing Mauja wanted right now was someone who was going to be a total arse. The greeting, while strange, acted as a green light to Mauja, signaling to him that he could have some fun. Well, as long as this cheetah had an 'open' mind.
"Well, if that's the case, then I'll just have to stay here and hang out with you." His eyes were trained on the other cheetah's as he neared, a smirk arising on his maw. "That is, if you'll have me." Though he wasn't planning on leaving if this cheetah wanted him to, he thought he'd be nice and ask first.
Stretching his limbs out, he moved his eyes up and down the red-eyed cheetah. "You know, if it wasn't for your gorgeous eyes, I wouldn't have seen you." The two orbs stood out vividly against his yellowed coat; they were like beacons.

Joke replied to the other's self-invitation with a shrug and took a seat. "I guess I wouldn't mind the company either," he said, tilting his gaze skyward. "Traveling alone is boring as hell, after all. Though by the looks of things I guess you don't need me to tell you that.."
The strange comment brought Jo's attention back on the dark-pelted cheetah, brows scrunching together in slight confusion. He'd never heard it quite expressed in that way.. but again with a shrug he dismissed the awkward feeling, taking it as more a compliment than anything else. "Thanks. I got 'em from my pops," came his reply.

"It does get rather dull...." Mauja glanced around, noting the dull and boring scenery. "But I guess I wouldn't have it any other way." He laughed, thinking about how annoying it would probably be if he had someone traveling with him. Meetings were fine every once in awhile, but a constant bother always next to you while you wander? That just didn't sound very appealing to Mauja.
"I see." His smile faded a little as he thought about his eyes. Mauja had never known his father, and his mother had the crystalline eyes that his sister had. He could assume the he had inherited his eyes, but his grandfather had orange eyes as well, so there was no telling what his father looked like.

Jo was never one to pick up subtle emotions that played on in the background, even if it was obviously written on the other's face, so he nodded at that, proud of the eyes he'd inherited and smiled. It also help that the other seemed to agree with him; he actually felt the same, in fact. "That's true," he agreed, taking glance at their surroundings himself and trying to imagine what it'd be like if someone were constantly around wherever he went.
"So I'm headed that way," he said, pointing in whatever direction. He didn't really have a particular destination in mind, so how he got wherever he'd end up at night didn't really matter. "Which way are you going?"

"Fun stuff." Stretching out his limbs, Mauja thought about where exactly he should be right now. Nafsi probably needed him right now, either to help with the cubs or for her own personal desires. She was special to him, to say the least, but he hated being confined.
"I can't say that I have a clue." Laughing, he tussled his mane a little, deciding that maybe it'd be for the best to go ahead and head back. He did want to have some sort of roll in his cubs' lives, right? But the thought of staying there depressed him. Oh well, sacrifices had to be made.
"But maybe...I should head home for a little while." Winking at Joka, Mauja knew he'd miss those eyes. "Those eyes are burned into my brain now, pretty boy. But I'll see ya' around." Spinning on the balls of his paws, Mauja rolled his shoulders, ready for the journey home.

Pretty boy? Jo quirked a brow at the phrase. He'd never been called such before, though he had to say that he's gotten lucky more than a few times since he started his life as a vagabond. "Home huh?" he said, smirking a little at the thought of no longer having a place of his own to call such. As he watched the other turn on his paws he nodded again.
"Yeah, you probably will." And with that he turned to face the opposite direction of which he pointed just moment ago (he didn't care to remember exactly which way that was, actually) and glanced over at the other cheetah for a second before starting off. Of course, he still had no idea where he was going, but that was really half the fun.
