Spring was close, he could smell it. The snow was beginning to melt, forming huge puddles and making way for tons of mud. Akira didn't mind mud that much except for that time when he slipped on a patch of ice, not completely melted and fell into a pile of muck. It took the Shikokuyen a while to get himself completely clean, free of every speck od mud that clung to his fur.
The bath was not fun especially since he refused to have one at the temple, and so because of his stubborness and reluctance to be cleaned by the human species he was forced to have a swim in a river. That was not so pleasant considering it was not warm water, it was cold to the touch. Thinking back on that time still gave him chills.
What to do today? He was completely and utterly bored, which was unlike him since he usually was able to occupy himself quite well. But today....he felt bored, there really wasn't much to do except prance around outside. He was an adult, and a male at that! He had to be strong and mature for his kind, not act like a frolicking pansy. But still what to do? He sat down in some damp grass and wondered. What to do?

 TakatoTakato pawed and combed his fur making sure it was just right, as he knew that he had to be beautiful not matter what at all times. He even thought to himself that he was beautiful regardless if he did or did not do his fur, but preferred it done nicely. He was small, yes. But a royal and big personally he had.
His rich red pelt glistened as he took a walk now around the pasture. The grass was becoming damp the deeper he was making his way around. He snarled some looking at his wet paws and leaped on rocks. He looked out for a minute and saw another. Like him. He wagged his feathery tail puffing up his chest fur.
"HI." He said with a springy smile.

He blinked in surprise at the young one, this one was only about a child and very small. He eyed the child with wonder, he never met another before, well he had met others of his kind but never one so small. Akira sat up, looking around for this one's mother or father or anything.
Seeing nothing he frowned, where was this one's parent? Or parents? He forced his frown into a polite smile. For now he would watch this young one till he got out of the child where his family was. "Hello young one, where is your family?" He hoped the child would understand, since he was so young he might not understand.

"Feh? Family?" He stared at the other. Eyeing to see each feature, This one looked like he'd seen a ghost or something. He leaped to a closer rock. "What is that?" He tilted his head and felt the sun hit his fur gently.
The self absorbed Shikokuyen let his hair pick up with the wind some. "You are tall." He stated the mere fact of this, as though he didnt know that he was small.

He didn't know what family was? This was worse than he thought. The male sighed, there were some days he wished he stayed at the Temple. This day was definately one of them. He had no clue how to deal or cope with a child but here he was, stuck in a situation that didn't appeal to him.
"Well family is the ones who take care of you, who will always love you, and who birthed you. You know, your mother, your father, siblings?" This child had to have them, right?

Takato thought for a minute. Puzzled some. "Whats a father and siblings? Who take care of me? Hime and Chi. Humans. Their my mommies." He said generally proud of his knowledge. He wasn't proud that Chi was his human. He rather thought of her empty and hyper mind to be annoying but she pampered him none of the less, which he loved.
"Where are they? Their at MY temple." He said shaking his head side to side in a cocky manner.

Humans, that was who his family was. He supposed his parents died or something, how sad, poor kid. He smiled lightly at the little brown/red furred Shikokuyen. "Ah yes, my human is at the Shikoku Temple also." He thought of his human, he didn't like her much but she was always kind to him so he supposed she was alright.
"So what brings you outside? You're so small and could easily get hurt or lost." He wondered why the kid was alone, he should have someone. Right?

Takato smelt the other's pity. Pity came along and he didn't like that feeling. Not one bit.
He retorted at the gesture and look in the other's eyes. "I." He started with a flat and upbeat tone. "I can take care of myself thank you. As for me? Outside? I came along because I have no where else to be." He flicked his hair back, like a child whom was pampered since his life began. Which was true. He still pondered what a family was. He only knew those humans and that was about it.
"feh. Lost. Im never lost." He said closing his eyes and opening them like a girl would.

He rose an eyebrow at the child, he acted extremely cocky as well as very pampered. Did his humans spoil him a lot? It seemed so. He shook his head, great now he had to deal with a child who was also a spoilt brat. He sighed, this was turning into an interesting day.
Though he suppposed an upside was that he was not bored anymore but still he did not want to deal with this child. Pity for him. Wait like a girl? Was this child male or female? He swore the kid Shikokuyen was male but now he was not so sure.
"Your humans must spoil you a lot." He chuckled slightly. "They must care for you a lot.......ah, what is your name?"

"Of course they do!" He said in almost defense but cleared the stubbern out of his throat to then reply. "My. Name is Takato." He said with a cocky end to it. He sat with a sort of feminine pose perking up his chest fur and looking to the other in a low manner. "Ah. So Do I get the favor returned? Your name?"
Her recoiled his tail around over his legs with a smirk. One that spoiled children have when they are about to do something mischievous. He never seen one of his own species. But this was seemingly interesting to see another. "Why are. YOU. Out here alone."

He frowned at the kid, he was too much and way too cocky. He shook his head lightly, kids were kids afterall though he swore he could not remember being impertinent like this young Shikokuyen was. Everyone was different perhaps.
"Akira." He replied before raising an eyebrow again at the young one's next words. "I am quite capable of taking care of myself but if you must know why I'm not at the Temple....well I enjoy fresh air every now and then and with spring approaching it is nice to be outdoors than cooped up inside." He nodded, outside was much better than inside afterall.

"Ah? Really now." He said and leaned forward on the rock; closer to the Akira. He thought for a minute. Then said next, choosing his words.
"I don't like being cooped up either. But I dont like to be dirty." He said shaking his head. He got a bath more than 4 times a day. When he got dirty, he would sure to be in a bath with in minutes. His mothers still fixing up the temple they almost didnt have time for pampering him that often.
He wagged his tail and smiled. "But why are you all alone? Don't you have any friends?" He said when he remembered the sub siblings he had from other species from other places of birth. They were friends to him. Not family.
He combed down his hair, feeling it get messy from the wind. Getting him somewhat irrated.

"Friends? Well I have met a few others but they're not friends. Not exactly." He tilted his head to the side, oh great now the kid probably thought he was dreadfully lame. But was it his fault he liked being by himself more than in groups? Was it his fault that he usually didn't meet another of his kind?
Well it probably was his fault but he didn't tend to see many others and the ones he did converse with were ones he wasn't too familiar with. Maybe in time he'd have closer companions but at the moment he was lucky to be able to occupy himself on his own. Sure he did enjoy being by himself because it was quieter but he did like being around others as well.
Maybe in time he would get over his complete shyness and enjoy being in groups completely instead of just being with one or two others. Big groups made him comfortable, all those voices from all around him, surrounding him. It made him nervous and he wouldn't know what to say, exactly.
He went to his paws and looked about, what to do? He shot a look at the kid, of course he'd have to bring him. The kid might end up getting himself lost or hurt and he'd be the guilty one if something ever ended to the little one. Having that on your shoulders was not good at all. He ruffled his wings, flying would be nice but he was quite sure children could not fly yet.

Takato blinked. "Ah. I dont have any either. Your the first one Ive seen." He looked at the other opening his wings. Ah.. should he try? He didn't really know what wings were for but he knew he had them and they were the prettiest.
He fluffed his bitty wings and jumped up. He flapped them but only got to a leap. He looked at the other again. He had bigger wings. That wasnt fair! He wagged his tail and tried again to jump and flap his wings in attempts to fly. He tried again. Then decided that ground was more for him. He curled around the rock and sat when he found the perfect spot. "Hmph!" He pouted and crossed his arms.
