Chobi:
Thwayya padded through the harsh desert weather on her way back to the temple. In her maw she carried some stone tablets for her father. She was focused and wasn't about to let anything get in her way of her duty. So she padded along with a serious face.
The heat was scorching though and the female had a pained look on her face. IT was hot and Thwayya's dark coat wasn’t helping.
Summer:
Tuaika played with one of his brothers. Well, it looked like play anyway. To them it was serious business. They were practicing their fighting techniques by wrestling each other and seeing who could pin the other the longest. Tuaika was currently loosing, till he looked over to see Thwayaa. He smiled, seeing his way out from loosing.
He quickly shoved Mery-Aphet off of him and ran over to her. "Hey Thwayaa! Wait up!" He called over while his brother teasing him about having a girlfriend.
Chobi:
The juve smiled and almost dropped the tablets she was carrying. She would have greeted him but her mouth was full of tablet. But the smile was enough. Warm and inviting.
Thwayya took a few steps toward the male.
Summer:
"Hey" He smiled as he shot a glare back to his brother for the tease. "What are you doing? Here let me get those for you" He said as he reached over to help her with the tablets.
Chobi:
The female gave him them happily. If just for a moment, she needed to breath.
"Thank you," She smiled. It was clear she was hot in this weather and needed shade by the way she was sweating.
Summer:
He smiled and gladly took the tablets, nodding his head towards the temple. He started to walk, taking long strides with his large paws. He was almost as big as his older brothers now. He was glad. No more boring classes. He had had it with all those lessons. And he'd be able to spend more time with his brothers and friends like Thwayya.
He really enjoyed being around her. He couldn't tell what it was. Maybe it was that she was real around him. She treated him like a normal lion. He couldn't tell for sure.
Chobi:
The female kept close beside the male. She blushed as she walked beside her crush feeling a little grown up being escorted by such a handsome older male.
"Thank you.." She said again.
Summer:
He laughed a little and nodded, the tablets slipping a little in his jaws. He stopped for a moment, and lifted a paw up to adjust the tablets. Stone sure tasted weird.
When they got to the temple, he set the tablets in the sand, as he sat down in the cool shade, giving her a little time to cool down. "What are these for anyway?" He asked, oblivious to her blush.
Chobi:
She snapped out of her trance for a moment at his question her bookish smart girl peeking through.
"Its for daddies scribes and I’m going to help him." She smiled up at the male, "I find it interesting all those symbols mean something," She was grateful for the time to cool down. It was hot. This was a chore she didn’t mind so much though now that she could do it with some one she cared about.
Summer:
His eyes widened a little. She was already helping her father with tasks like that? "Wow." He said as he looked at her with fascination. It was so hard to see what she was thinking.
"Yeah I've noticed that too." He said as he glanced down at the tablets, rubbing a paw over the characters etched into the stone. "I catch myself looking at the walls in the temple when I'm skipping my lessons in the afternoons." He mentioned as he looked back up to her
Chobi:
She laughed at him for skipping lessons.
"Why would you want to skip lessons?" She giggled, "Im sure you learn alot. I take lessons from my daddy." She nodded.
Summer:
He scoffed and rolled his head back, "But they're so boring!" He said as he let out a little frustration. "Sitting around learning about politics... no thanks." He said as he looked back to her, "I have no interest of going to another pride." He said as he flicked his tail a little. He loved his father, but there was just way too much work in being a prince. He wasn't ready for it yet. He still wanted to play around and be himself
Chobi:
He seemed like he was stressed. Thwayya tilted her head up at him. Why was he so stressed out. She had no idea she was in the pressence of a prince. None what so ever.
"Politics. What would you need that for. I just learn about scribes," It was in her family to be a scriber and Thwayya was sure she would grow up and take on the same job as the rest of her family had opted to take.
Summer:
His ears twitched. Whoops... he almost spilled the beans. He wasn't ready for her to know yet.
"Its... complicated.." He said as he looked down. He was still trying to figure out how to tell her he was royalty. He would think of a way, but then... her reaction. Would she hate him? Would she not want to be around him? thoughts like these plagued his mind when they weren't together. And now they were rolling around in his head now.
Chobi:
The female looked up at him and shrugged. Maybe he had connections to that stuff some how . It wasn't her place to pry. She was far to worried about getting these tablets to daddy any how.
"I think we better hurry or daddy might get lazy and decide not to work," She laughed.
Summer:
He looked back up to her and smiled. She always knew how to make him feel better, "Right." he said as he stood up, "You need any more help getting them to your father?"
Chobi:
She smiled , "Sure you carry one and I can carry one," She picked one up and skipped toward the temple. She looked back over her shoulder and blushed only to continue skipping.
Summer:
"Okay." He smiled and leaned down to pick up the other tablet, following after her to her fathers work palace. He had never seen where the scribes worked, he was a little excited about going to see it. But even more excited to be with Thwayya.
