[ Since Mala's in this area, rp will be here ; to be considered before his Rp with Tsi. ]  Finally, he had reached this strange area to the north that he had only heard about on the winds. The souls of the Ela tribes had called out to him unknowingly; and being still a youth, and curious to boot, he couldn't just say no to whatever may come. So here he was, standing at the edge of the territory; the weather almost completely different than the jungle he had met his first friend. Oh it felt long ago.
Shaking off the sense of nostalgia from his mind, he finally decided to restart his trek around wherever his heart took him, his long wings folding up comfortably on his back - which only made him a little more hotter. It was different, but it was still blastedly hot. Maybe something will come up - like a small river.

She understands... Kosa sauntered around in the heat, without purpose or any incling as to where it might lead her. She had her wings spread in a way that provided shade, but the heat. Why did it always have to be like this? She thought she'd be used to it but she never really had. The jewels she was wearing made a faint jingling noise as she walked.
Suddenly, something inside jumped. She hadn't had this feeling is quite the while. Actually not since around birth. "Jamala...." she whispered to herself. She missed her brother deeply. He was the only one who really understood her, or so thats how she felt....But she does not comprehend.

There was that feeling again. Something he hadn't felt for a very very long time - one that both thrilled and slightly even put some fear in him. But shaking it off, he gave a grin into the great unknown and turned his head only slightly so, when the voice reached his ear.
It had been such a little something something that was endowed to them when they had been created, but being able to sense and feel your sibling; even if they were just a few feet away; was wonderful at times. And so, turning his head once more to the voice, he followed the strange melody, hoping to find his way towards her finally.
"There's a voice I haven't heard in awhile; dear Mkosaji. How are you." He whispered to the wind, knowing that it would find it's way to her.

She understands... The soft words reached her ears and she smiled. Kosa began to run as fast as she could in the direction it came from. Her insides were jumping just from the thought of him being here. "Jamala! Jamala, I missed you so much!"
She kept pushing herself to go faster. She needed to see him; she desired it. Kosa always got what she desired, its the way things were. She didn't know how far she had gone but she could feel his presence getting stronger. Slowly, she could see a figure ahead of her. It was him. "Brother!"
Kosa leaped and pounced Jamala. "I'm fine. I'm fine now, and you dearest brother?" She nuzzled him lovingly, she almost felt like crying from the overwhelming joy....But she does not comprehend.

The whispers were getting louder, as he could almost feel her running towards him; the rush of feeling came as he knew she'd reach him any moment..
And he would take the brunt of the rush, the wind very softly tickling his fur when sister met brother in a flurry of love. Happiness overwhelmed him to finally see his twin again; it had been far too long and she was showing signs of maturing, just like him.
Purring softly on his side, he let his sister fuss over him, a grin over his maw as she nuzzled him and messed up his fur, before turning and nuzzling her in the cheek, feeling the weight of her on his body. "I am well, am well. I found my way up here in research, partly for myself; partly to gloat to a friend when I returned to the south." he told her truthfully, as he perked his ears again. "And what sort of fun are you doing on a hot day like this..?"

She understands... "Come to think of it...none. I've been just kinda wandering for the past while." She got off of him and sat in a manner that would hide her right foreleg. "Come to think of it, I've only mingled very little and neither cases were too enjoyable."
Kosa let her wings hang loose and she sighed slightly. "Hey, you've gotten much bigger since I saw you last. It has been far to long." She stopped for a moment to think. "What kind of research? And who is this friend you speak of?"
She shifted herself into a laying position, still trying to hide the leg. She was ready for a possible long story, and was definitely eager to hear it....But she does not comprehend.

Giving a sudden yawn and stretching his wings out, he decided that he would take a break from travelling and atleast spending time with his twin before they would part ways again, two opposing forces spreading both decay and delight throughout the worlds, in their own little way. It was both frightening and amusing to the godling as it turned in his head a few more times. But instead of donning on it more, he decided to let it rest for awhile.
Turning his head and perking his ears in her direction, he nodded softly. "I have met many another since we had parted - dear sister. It has had some ups and downs - I even met another one of our kind. But it has been far too long since we last crossed paths, we should invest in more meetings." he started, peering at her seriously before turning his gaze away for his 'long story.'
"Well, I was thinking to myself one day that our tails were so intrequet in designs in comparison to many other of our kin - and well, it bothered me a bit. We are gods - sure, but even some gods are bland without markings. So I set out to maybe see about a reason. And thus I found myself here." he started, looknig around the canopy they had found themselves in - which made it somewhat cooler than the jungle or savannah, but still hot. "So upon researching some rogues, I heard about a land to the north, where we lay now - so I decided to come up here, and maybe see if this has any significance to how we.. became." he stated, choosing his words lightly.
"And the "friend" I speak of is a mortal I met when I was a cub. She was a great intellect, and if I ever meet her again - I wish to tell her of my findings, as she would probably take this information to heart and show some pride in knowing more than her siblings. Or so I would suppose." he finished, grinning like a fool as he reminded himself of his cubhood, having met Ekevu on the outskirts of the jungle; but it pained him a little when he remembered losing his friend so easily.
Snapping to, he peered to his sister curiously. "Are you hiding something from me, dear sister?"

She understands... Mkosaji shifted slightly. She didn't want to show him her ugliness. It would show imperfection, which she felt was unacceptable. However, she knew he would find out eventually. Sooner the better as they say. Kosa placed the scared leg on top of the beautifully marked one. She had a shamed look on her face.
"One...one of our own...is the cause of this. I too had fault, but it is he who instigated the act. He shifted my fur and my skin to a different color, and I pleaded with him to stop. He would not. He laughed. Soon it was crimson red with my own blood spilling forth. I do not remember much after that." Kosa did not like this feeling brewing inside. She could not bare to look at her brother, for the weight of her heart would not allow her....But she does not comprehend.

All he could possibly do in retort to the scars was lift his eyebrows curiousity, his nose quiverred as he inspected the paw from his position, the scars showing the deep wounds to her pride - something she both guarded over and had to herself a great amount of. He wasn't sure how to respond to her at first, seeing the great shame in her eyes from all the gashes and wounds, and so, with a terse smile he just decided to say what first came out from his healing heart.
"You still look the same way you did when we were born, my dear sister; I cannot fathom why you hurt yourself so - I do not carry as much pride as you do." he started, his eyes holding attention on the paw. "But at the same time I understand your stress about that event - let it go, dear sister, let it go, I am sure you are still beautiful inside even through the scars. Inside is always what counts." he explained, finally leaving his gaze from her paw, and returning to her once more, seeing that she had turned face from him.
"Do not fret, I see no shame in your actions, I almost understand where you came from in regards to them. I would say be proud; for a scar makes a lion stronger." He attempted to finally clean up, unsure if it would work on her.

She understands... She turned her eyes to him. Maybe he was right. She should let it go, accept that it happened. After all, she couldn't change it. "But...they are not scars from a battle. Though, they are a reminder to not be so scared of the unknown."
Kosa now turned her head fully back to her brother. She slowly crawled closer to him and rested her head on his paws. "I wish I could be as strong as you brother. You are so sure of things. I envy that. I feel like I am useless; like I have no purpose."
"You have goals, I have none." She sighed lightly. "Maybe this is my destiny."...But she does not comprehend.

Nudging his sister's head softly with his own maw when she came over and rested her head upon his paws, he looked down at her before looking away, ears flat against his head as he thought deep aboyt what she had just said, a thoughtful frown upon his face. "That would be a very good explaination for the scars - consider them a beautiful part of life, even if they are heavy. The make you just as unique."
"But dear sister," he suddenly changed topic, "the only way I've learnt to be sure of life is experiencing things as I travelled; making allies and enemies as I went. The only goals I have are to find the unknown and meet many who also follow the paw prints of the gods, mortal or not. Maybe it would be in your best interest to start meeting mortals, and hearing their ideas of life? The're surpringing intellegent at times, with their own wisdom." he finished in a small bit of awe, a murr deep in his throat showed he was happy with his findings already in life.

She understands... "You are right. I don't know why I'm always so afraid. Maybe because I don't want to fail. Though I do not understand the feeling. I wonder if one of our own would know. I'm sure there is another who felt this way at some point." She smiled and looked up at her brother.
"You knew just how to cheer me up. Thank you Jamala." She turned so she was laying on her back, then Kosa pushed her brothers head with her paw. A large, sly smile creeped across her maw. "So brother, have you met anyone yet who has peeked your hearts interest?" ...But she does not comprehend.

"Mmh, sometimes fear just crawls up on the best of us." he could only fathom, in all honesty, what the wheels in his sister's mind were churning out for her at any time, they were twins, not mind readers. But it did him some good when he heard her spirits rise just a little, and when he looked down again, he got a mawful of fur.
Growling ever so playfully at his sister, he spat out the paw, and laughed a hearty laugh when she started pushing with her paws, flickering his tail. And then she asked the question. Turning his eyes up to the canopy above there heads, he tried to think of the best way to answer it, as he got squished by two large paws.
"Nnfph." he started, as her paws squished his face up a little, but when she relented so, he finally got the words out. "Not yet. I haven't met enough pretty lionesses to find my fathom yet, so my heart has murmured as usual. Many of the lions I've passed were much much older than us." Which honestly - he found funny.

She understands... "I have yet to meet someone aswell. Maybe it is for the best that we haven't. It might make traveling and such difficult." Her smiled turned sweet. Kosa rolled onto her stomach and stretched. "Don't you get lonely Jamala?"
She did. Part of her everyday was being lonely. Another question rose to her mind like a bubble in water. "Have you met anyone you'd like to watch over? To protect? You seem to have met many others so far, so I thought it might be a possibility."
Kosa began to clean the scared paw. She just didn't like being dirty. especially when it was so easy to see on her black fur....But she does not comprehend.

Watching her clean her own paw, his itched ever slightly, but not enough for him to want to bother his sister from her comfortable looking perch, if he would have said so himself. Murring as he thought about what she had told him, he barely heard her ask him the next small slew of questions, but one brought him to his senses, only very slightly so.
"Someone for which who I'd like to care fore, you say?" he repeated outloud, rolling the idea through his head and heart, searching deep within. And through the list, only one was brought up. "Well, I can't say I'd want to go defend her till the abyss, but I'd love to go and find my old friend again. But not after I've learnt atleast a little something to repay losing her so long ago." he mused, once again, as he looked at the canopy again, enjoying how the sun danced through it. It was almost so beautiful, he could forget such a rough heat.
"The world is very vast, dear sister; we'll find someone."
