As much as he tried to suppress it, he missed the mud. He'd heard Kabusha's daughter-in-law talk on and on all day about how much she loved the mountain instead because it didn't dirty up her fur, but even she couldn't hide her longing to go back.
They had to move on, though, that much he knew. The petite male hadn't been in his new homelands for long, and so his way of coping with the changes were to explore. So far he'd managed to walk it's border with that chatty female; she evidently loved hearing herself talk, since he hadn't been able to say a thing edgewise!
Taime'sööja found a patch of vegetation, bit off a large chunk, swirled it around in his mouth like cud, and checked out the scenary with a lazy eye. Where too next...?

For Hal-shikasta, the lack of mud - and, more importantly, of swamp - was just one more thing to be unhappy and b***h about. And, in her case, the list of those things was very long, quite possibly endless. She hadn't run out yet, and it was unlikely that she ever would. The world was one big, miserable place full of miserable, annoying people. Sadly, however, one thing the Jini-misemi's particular place was no longer full of was mud. She would have preferred the mud.
The pale lioness was skulking along, kept company by her metaphorical little raincloud, when she noticed an obnoxiously bright-maned lion. And as if his color weren't ridiculous enough, he was chewing on a plant. She tended to avoid her pridemates to the extent that it was feasible, but this was one of those times when she simply couldn't resist inflicting herself upon them.
"Hey. Hey, you. Algaehead. What are you doing?"

"Is it really?" His eyes widened. "I really should see a healer about it, then, but you should probably come with me. You have bruises under your eyes." He frowned, and pointed to the spot on his own face with a claw. "Probably from scowling so much in your sleep." His mother would have his hide if she knew he was being rude, but seriously, he wasn't the one interrupting a meal around here!
"I'm a Hunter, so when I go to get food, it's called 'hunting'." Just to make a point Tai ripped out the biggest weed he could find, stood up, looked her in the face and chewed it to the stalk which he promptly bit in half. "At least it's better than murder. Hares, birds, those big things with the hooves - they've all got families too, you know, and lives. How'd you like it if they decided to eat you?"
As far as he was concerned his families past had enough blood in it as it was without him adding to it.
