 Cam hummed quietly, standing on the wall that overlooked the ocean and smiling faintly as she waited for her mate. It seemed that she was the earlier riser of the two, though her love was never far behind her.
Today was a brilliant summer morning, and it promised to be spectacular. The tribe had been lively, especially since Kina and Freyr had children, and Cam hadn't really gotten a chance to bond with Keith in awhile. Altair had given permission, so today she and Keith were going to spend the day together, just the two of them.
She didn't know what they were going to do just yet. Take a walk and chat, forage for food and just relax under the trees, maybe even take a small swim in one of the streams. Whatever they felt like doing.

 Keith woke only a little wile after his mate left. With out her wam body to keep him warm he was easily woken by the cool air around him. He sat up and yawned as he stretched. Once he finished he looked around to see if he could spot his mate. Of course he had no such luck and she wasn't in the room. Standing he made his way out the door and toward the keep. He stopped for a moment when he came upon the statue of the maker and lowered his head in respect.
When he was finished with his quick prayer to the Maker he passed the statue and stopped. He spotted his mate and smiled. The way the sun hit her fur... she was beautiful. He smiled as he made his way over to the wall and looked up at her.
"Please be careful love... I would hate for you to fall and hurt yourself..."

Cam turned her head, a gentle smile gracing her face. "I'm always quite careful," she said, leaning against her mate and looking back over the scenery again. "Flight might be glorious, but only those with wings ever make a landing graceful. And unless I missed the growth, I still do not have wings."
She smiled again, then leaned her head so that it was resting against Keith's throat, with the top slightly tucked under her mate's chin. "It looks like it's going to be a beautiful day, don't you think?"

"I know..." He chuckled as he smiled. "But still... i'm allowed to worry... I am your mate after all." He followed her gaze out to the scenery. "Wise words but you have to admit... fight would be a glorious thing." He closed his eyes as he nuzzled her back. "Mmm... It is going to be a beautiful day... but of course not as beautiful as you." He licked her snout. "Have you eaton yet?"

Cam chuckled. "Flirt," she accused, lightly smacking her tail against Keith's side and giving her head a quick upward flick so the top of her nose brushed against the underside of Keith's jaw.
"As it so happens I have not eaten yet. I was waiting for you, so we could go together." She cast an amused emerald glance upward. "Though you know I'm not going to be any use in a hunt." Which was true. Cam's strength was more that of a gatherer, since one did not have to run and subdue with strength when all one wanted was the tasty roots attached to a plant.

Keith couldn't help but smile. He liked being a flirt with her. It was fun and if he was lucky she would even flirt back. Of course she was the only one he used his flirty wilds with.
"You know you love it when I flirt with you." He chuckled when she hit him with her tail. "Easy... you could endanger a male with that tail of yours." he teased. "Well I'm here now. So I say we go and get ourselves something to eat. I'm starved." He then chuckled when she mentioned she wasn't much of a hunter. "Don't say that. Your a skilled hunter. Those roots scream out in fear when they see you."

Cam snorted, and flicked Keith with her tail again. "Silly! Don't make me exercise my superior camoflage skills and leave you behind. I know some excellent spots to collect pond weed to store on your side of the bedding, and I could give myself time to gather an ample amount." Her eyes gleamed wickedly as she teased her mate.
She stood, stretching, and walked at a moderate pace towards the steps to the ground. A good thing they were starting out early in the morning. The land was plentiful, but it would be nice to be able to just relax rather than hurry home after eating.

He chuckled as he closed his eyes when she hit him again. She was so cute when she messed with him. "Oh no please. not the pond weed." he made a mock cry of fear and recoil. "I would never go against you my queen." He bowed his head chuckling then stood. "Alright... I think its time were off. After you my love." he motioned with a paw then followed behind her.

Cam leveled a very sweet smile over her shoulder at her mate, then turned her attention back to her paws so she didn't trip and fall off the wall. Nothing killed a good day like broken bones. It wasn't that the wall was in horrible shape, but it had suffered a bit from neglect and there weren't walls to protect you from walking right off the edge.
They made it to the ground, the sky steadily growing a lighter blue, and Cam turned to Keith. "Perhaps you should take point if we're going to hunt first," she said. Keith had a better instinct for this kind of thing. Not to mention they were hoping for something at least medium-sized, so they could both eat to contentment and maybe have something to bring back, then lounge the rest of the day.

"As you wish." He gave her a smile as he passed her. Of course he didn't go too fast. He did a little sweep over here with his eyes from head to toe. He still couldn't believe he got so lucky. "It shouldn't take us too long to catch something." He nodded with another smile as he took point.
He led her across the keep and toward the gate. Once on the path he stopped for a moment and took in the nice frech air. "Mmm.... I love the smell of morning. Its a new day in life." he chuckled then glanced over at her. "I know its kinda a day off for us but... we should follow our tenets... just incase."

Cam nodded. "No need to bring trouble to the tribe in a careless moment," she agreed. She turned to look at Keith, then grinned and stretched up on her toes to touch her nose to him. "Anyway, I couldn't harm a fly. And even on my worst day I think I can hide better than almost anyone here."
It was one of Cam's greatest prides at being so good at hiding. Most of it was her coat color, but she also knew the land very well from constant forays out taking simple walks.
Still smiling at her mate lovingly she pulled back and took a moment to enjoy the sights with him, body aligning itself so that as soon as he moved she'd be ready to follow.

"Yeah... Altair wouldn't take to kindly to that." Keith nodded then chuckled when she stood on her toes so she could touch her nose with his. It made him smile. "Thats cause you are a master of hiding." He leaned in and licked her nose lightly. "I would hate to have played hide and seek with you as a kit. I bet you always won." He chuckled then began walking. "And don't worry. I wont let anything happen to you." He smiled back at her.

Cam laughed softly. "Just wait until we have kids," she told her mate, nudging his side," and you'll see just how horrible it is to play hide and seek with those of my ilk." She shot an impish smile up at Keith, then quieted down since they were on the move. They'd probably still talk a bit more, being so close to the tribe base that they didn't have to worry about scaring off prey or attracting strangers, but it never hurt to get ready by lowering your tone.
For the rest of it, Cam just smiled in her gentle, loving way. She could be a fairly independant female sometimes, but she did love it when Keith got protective over her. In all fairness she couldn't win fights if it came down to it, since she was always so relucant to harm others no matter what the circumstances.

Keith stopped when his mate mentioned the word KIDS. It was like the word had hit him like a brik and it must have been strange to see him suddenly stop. Kids... he couldn't help the goofy/dreamy smile that crossed his face as he looked out into nothing. He suddenly got this random video going through his head of their life with kits.
"..... K~i~d~s..." His voice came out in a soft dreamy tone.

Cam stopped to look at Keith, then actually started giggling. It was soft and light first, but slowly grew in volume. Mindful of the need for silence she tried to confine the noise, though her body was wracked with convulsions as the laughter still went through her.
Finally Cam managed to get herself under control. "I apologize," she gasped, leaning over to nuzzle her mate. "You had such an usual expression on your face though, I couldn't help myself." She forced herself not to chuckle, sure it would start off another round of laughter. Of course she was sure her mate would like a family with her, but she hadn't anticipated such a pleasant reaction.
