Mkinaifu was quite happy with himself- he'd had a really great day! The cub had been going between frolicking through the pride's lands and calming down to ponder whatever he wanted all day so far! He'd even spoken to those voices, he'd finally worked up the nerve to talk to the muses!

He had no idea who was louder than who amongst them, but they had all responded at once- it was absolutely the highlight of his day. He hadn't even been able to make out what they said, but he knew they responded. Was he hearing them all at once, every aspect of nature? Was it because not one of them had chosen him yet? He just knew that they were in the process of choosing him- he knew it! They were probably all arguing amongst themselves for who would get to claim him- he had such wonderfully blue eyes after all!

"Oh, I hope I haven't caused you all too much trouble," he said to them, new concern creeping up. He hadn't made them jealous of one another, had he? "It's all alright, right?" He asked. He heard them reply something calmly and he gave a small sigh of relief- if they were mad, they would have sounded that way.
