*Tempo:
It was the first time in a while that they'd been able to all get together and discuss things. It took a lot to get four cats in the same area together, apparently, especially with he himself being so busy with hunting down a territory for the four of them. The forest cat tended to like to do things on his own, and not get dragged down by a group--plus, it wasn't all that safe for Ririka to be tagging along.

He'd called the four of them together just on the outskirts of the city, near an abandoned house that had a decently sized man-made lake on it. Though this was one of the places he was tempted to take as a territory, it was far too close to the humans to think over very seriously.

"I was thinking of looking through the house and seeing if there was any sign of humans," he began, sprawling out on his back near the shore of the lake, "I've been here a few days and there's no sign of anyone coming home...so I'm wondering if it's for the homeless humans or something."

*Ririka:
The ragdoll was beyond not interested in all of this territory stuff. She'd had it explained to her a million times by Tempo...they needed a place just for them, and so that no weird cats could come into their home and take it over, or claim it as their own.

But, then again, she'd never had to defend anything of her own before. Soon after she'd gotten her collar off, she'd met SiWon...then HeeChul, which could have brought some trouble up in the long run, but it hadn't. As to how the males had met Tempo, she'd never bothered to ask, but whatever.

Crouching down near the waterline, her bare feet twitched when the water lapped up over them, making her jump a bit and giggle...obviously not paying attention. Ririka heard a growl from Tempo, but ignored it, taking a swipe at the water as one of the smaller fish came by. Miss. Another...miss. Huffing, she pouted and backed up a few paces, and plopped onto her rear.

*HeeChul:
An amused look came onto his face when he heard the words, nodding his head. To humans, it would be a small home, but for those their size, it would be quite the territory.

Humans didn't bother him that much, though. Either they cooed and said how pretty he was, or they acted like assholes. And if they acted like assholes, HeeChul would take off, give it a few minutes, then jump on their face and claw it to pieces.

So really. no problem.

"Just find a place, yeah? I can't stay at the aquarium anymore, I don't want to be underneathe some stupid entitlement whore who thinks she deserves the territory just because she -says- so." His tone showed how much he disliked women. Except for Ririka, but she was more of a kid to him.

*SiWon:
He sighed a little as he heard HeeChul's words, knowing that he was saying such simply becauase he could. He didn't mind staying where he was, but.. he, too, was careful about who he let lead what he was doing.

Besides, he couldn't stay away from HeeChul forever, the redhead usually hissed at him if he didn't go to his territory, or invited himself to the college for a bit of rest in
*SiWon's bed.

Well, whatever it took to keep the princess happy.

*Tempo:
"That's easier said than done, princess. There are a lot of cats around here, it's hard to find even a foot of space without running into another feral and getting snarled at. They all have such nasty tempers," glancing over to Ririka, he arched a brow then shook his head, sighing. "And I cant be the only one protecting the place, you know. SiWon, when are you actually going to leave your territory and come here? It's getting dangerous for HeeChul to be wandering by himself."

As much faith as he had in the younger siamese, it was still dangerous for a cat to be wandering by himself. That's usually why he kept Ririka with SiWon, the kid didn't know jack s**t about living on her own. How she'd gotten this far--he'd never know.

"Riri! Pay attention before I drown you."

*Ririka:
Squeaking a bit when she was yelled at, she stood and picked up her discarded stockings and shoes, stepping up to where SiWon was seated and sliding down to sit beside him and near HeeChul. Another pout crossed her features as she began to pull her stockings back on.

"You guys are so pent up on nothing, you know? I've wandered around by myself and I've never gotten hurt or attacked.." She spat, sticking her tongue out at the nasty tempered forest cat.

*SiWon:
He sighed, shaking his head. "I'll leave the territory tonight. Riri and I will get our things." When he heard the other bark at her, he shot him a small glare before he even had time to debate it. He wasn't going to let anythign happen to her, she was just like a little sister to him, and family was very important.

"But someone needs to work on teaching her to fight for herself. Properly, the way a female cat should." He glanced over to HeeChul, who seemed to be more amused than offended by the suggestion.

*HeeChul:
He shot a glare of his own to SeungHyun before crossing his arms over his chest. "I can defend myself. And for the record, I will be the one in charge of teaching Ririka how to fight. She and I will just spar and I can teach her what she needs to know."

The redhead ran a hand through his ponytail, looking rather smug and content about what was happening. He'd show that stupid TOP how a
*real cat fought, anyway.

*Tempo:
Giving a snort of his own at the glare he got from SiWon, he knew better than to think the three of them were really mad at him. Rolling his eyes at the comment about female cats fighting, he couldn't help but laugh when all eyes settled on HeeChul.

"Is that so, princess?" He teased softly, pushing himself to sit up and cross his legs. "So after you teach her to fight, maybe you'll fight me, hm?" Tempo understood that HeeChul wouldn't do as he was told unless it was a truly deadly situation. The only reason he was putting himself in charge was because he was the oldest, and had been on the streets the longest. That and HeeChul wouldn't make a good leader--SiWon he'd probably set second in charge anyway. The guy had a level head.

*Ririka:
Looking up to SiWon when he brought up fighting, she frowned and looked down to the bunny in her lap, fiddling with his ears and soft tail. Biting her lower lip, she shook her head a little.

"I dont wanna fight," she admitted, absently leaning her shoulder to SiWon's, "I dont see a point." She was a very optimistic and passive cat. One that would much rather roll around in the grass than get into cat fights and get her clothes ruined.

"Chullie, you dont really want to teach me, right?"

*HeeChul: "Shut up, Hyun, or I really will. Be respectful of your dongsaengs." He grumbled a little as he turned to hear what the female had to say.

He tilted his head before shaking it. "Riri, you don't have to go looking out for a fight, but you have to be able to defend yourself. Do you really want to be a push over? You're never going to attract yourself a man if you can't defend yourself!
*Besides, the cats around here are vicious, you have to be skilled like me to be able to survive."

*SiWon;
"Calm down, Hyung." He muttered to HeeChul as he heard the other get a bit riled about Ririka learning to fight. "It's not like I'll let anything happen to her. She doesn't need to learn how, I'll defend her." He relaxed a little in his seat, doing what he could to keep HeeChul from getting over eager.

There were very few things he ever -wanted- to do, but if he thought it was a good idea
*and one he had, it was hard to stop him on his path.

*Tempo:
Chuckling softly, he waved the man off and sighed. "HeeChul, I'm just teasing, you know that. I think you'd be the best one to teach her to fight, princess. I honestly do," looking to Ririka as she whined about learning to fight, Tempo pushed himself to stand and stepped over towards them. Taking a seat on the other side of the girl, he patted her should and motioned to HeeChul.

Really, Tempo wasn't all that violent or angry. Just laid back. He looked out for his donsaengs--younger siblings...he adored them, which is why he'd protect them if they needed it. It was having them be able to defend themselves that he was worried about.

"Why dont we just play around a bit. Riri, you're fast, you can probably dodge some hand-to-hand, right?"

Ririka:
Frowning once more, she messed with her bunny once more, looking up to SiWon once more. He'd always defended her, even since he'd run across her...she trusted him more than the other two, but all of her oppas were strong and she cared for them.

Or else she would have let those humans pick her up again.

"I-I guess so..." She murmured, shrugging at HeeChul's comment. "S-so if I learn to fight I can find a boyfriend?" Yeah, she was hitting that age already. Go figure. She heard a chuckle from Tempo and blushed at this, lifting her bunny up to hide her face. How embarrassing.
