Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lyra rolled over happily, the sun danced across her face, and she smiled broadly. She could feel the snoozing Kimba beside her and it made her smile grow wider. They were in their new home, new home, new place, new love for this beautiful land. She had been learning a lot, becoming a member of the bird clan she had asked one of the others to mark her with some tattoos to show where she had been, and where she was now and she was very proud of them.

Rolling over she wrapped her forelegs around her big hairy males neck and buried her nose in to his mane with a pleased sigh "I'm so glad we are home." she whispers happily.

Kimba stirred when he felt his mate, and began to unleash a rumbling purr as he awoke, smiling to her.

"Mmmm... So am I." The male said softly. He groomed at her paws, marvelling at how beautiful this land was... And how harmonious. He felt truly at peace.

Lyra opened a soft blue eye and chuckled happily, he as so handsome and hers, he had been hers for a long time they had always been together and he was her one true love and now they were in a safe, beautiful place, together forever.

"We need to get you some tattoos Kimba." She grins drawing a claw over his forearm tracing a pattern in his fur.

"Oh?" He watched her trace his leg. He hadn't thought of tattoos really, merely of the satisfaction of being, well, home. He rumbled at her touch, and groomed the paw. "Soon, perhaps."

Lyra pured touching his nose with her own a gentle smile on her sandy coloured maw. "I think you would look good with blue tattoos." She giggles, she was so proud of her tattoos after all and her new accessories, she wanted to se kimba with some marks, marks that he could feel proud of too.

"I like blue..." He murmured, and licked her maw. With his mate now before him, he stretched, toes touching her chest, and rose, playfully pouncing her as he had when they were cubs.

Lyra giggles and nips his cheek playfully as he pounces her wriggling out from under hims he bounds o her paws and nips lovingly at his tail her paws dancing at his haunches. "You're very silly Kimba." she pururs head butting him and running her body under his chin.

"Maybe." He grinned, beginning a play dance of his own as he leapt back with a smile, pawing in her direction. With the children in various clans and otherwise tending themselves, they were back where they were before. A pair of playful, happy lions. Kimba grinned, pawing for her tail, chuckling as he did so.

"Muah!"

Lyra laughed, a small giggly laugh, she had always loved Kimba, he was her soul mate, they had been together forever since cub hood, always together always reaching for each other.

"Crazy boy." She puurrs wrapping her paws around his neck and grooming his cheeks happily.

Kimba smiled, returning the gesture as he groomed her face gently, rumbling.

"If I'm crazy... It's for you, my dear." He rumbled softly.

Lyra purs and sighs happily "you're a nut Kimba, but you're my nut." She giggles letting go of him and bouncing off in to the sunshine, looking back and waving her tail in the air. "catch me if you can!"

Kimba grinned, getting up and persuing Lyra rapidly, laughing.

"I'll catch you yet, my dear!"

Lyra slowed slightly, a broad grin on her maw as she flicked her tail in to his nose. "only if I wanna!" She giggles speeding up a little.

Kimba laughed as he chased her tail, rumbling in his chest as he moved.

"Oh really now?"

He smiled, jumping a few times to pounce, but each time, he landed on his paws, running and laughing. This... Was happiness.

Lyra finally started to slow down, she turned quickly and met kimba with a daring pounce, wrapping her paws around his neck. "I'v never been Happier Kimba." She whispers grooming his pale face in a pleased manner.

"This is where we belong."

"It is." He rumbled back, wraping her paws around him as he rumbled, nuzzling into her neck softly, gently. It felt good to be with her.

She gave a smile and flopped down in the sun on her back with her paws open, patting at his fore arms. "We'll be here together forever Kimba." She sighs closing her eyes and enjoying the sun on her stomach. This was where they belonged.

"Forever and ever." He rumbled, nuzzling and pressing close to her, smiling as he got comfortable, rumbling.

Sighing happily she rolled over and nestled happily in to Kimbas mane, "forever." She whispers, nestling in to her mate and allowing the sun to warm her fur and send her in to a happy slumber.

Kimba rumbled, shutting his eyes as he remained entwined with his mate, a smile spreading across his maw as the sun beat down. Forever... Yes.

Forever was just perfect.
