Strange.
It was strange to be near her father's homelands. Her mother, bless her soul, hadn't really stuck as close as a heavily pregnant female perhaps should have, but once Nakama was ready to begin her plan it hadn't been too hard to find this place. The land of the bones. The graveyard. Perhaps even a haunted place. Nakama couldn't imagine her father resting well, knowing that his murderer was still alive. She had claimed ownership of the pack, a place that she didn't belong in, and Nakama was intent on altering her position as alpha. She didn't have a plan, not yet, but the only way to understand where to strike would be to understand this pack.
So here she was, lingering within the shadows of the great elephant skulls that littered the landscape. Her dark eyes, almost unreadable, watched the going ons of hyenas, some pathetic ones too crippled to do much but lie around and whine. Others dropping off pitiful amounts of food. Discussing the need for another water supply. What a foolish group. |

Nakama's frowned as she stared at most of the other hyenas. She knew that some of her siblings were lingering around the pack, but she felt like she would blend in much better without her dusk-patterned legs. She rustled up some of the dirt, covering her legs as best she could. It was still apparent that her leg markings were different from the rest of her body, but it wasn't such a stark difference. More muted.
Feeling a little more satisfied with herself (if much dirtier), she relaxed her posture. Her eyes and mind were still busily at work, but it seemed that nothing very interesting was going on right now. So she turned her focus to this little pile of bones near where she was, poking through them with mild disgust. Why were some of these hyenas so interested in bones? There was nothing that they offered, not even a scrap of food. They wouldn't keep you warm on those cold, cold nights, and they certainly weren't comfortable to sleep on. They seemed useless, unless one wanted to snap them when angry.
Snap! Snap! Hmm, breaking them was a little entertaining...

"Hmmmm." Nakama decided that she would never understand the bone obsession. It was stupid, juvenile, and useless. Her eyes narrowed, but a touch of an impish smile cross her jaws. She was going to want to either gag or laugh herself silly later, but he was odd enough that she might just 'play' with him a bit.
"Yes, entertainment," she echoed, shifting her shoulders just a bit. "It gets awfully lonely out there in the empty rogue lands, and I was merely studying what sorts of fun could be found here." Forget the fact that she was young and he certainly wasn't, she figured this would be the best way to get him to either believe her, or leave her alone.
"I'm certain you could help me with that, hm?" And she severely invaded his personal space, brushing up against him while kicking some of the bones that were between them away.
