    A small nicheling walked into the den, accidently bumping into Lanasi. "Oops, sorry!" He apologized, before turning his gaze to Kalile. He hesitantly walked up to her, and she didn't even seem to acknowledge him until he prodded her with one paw. She looked down, narrowing her eyes a little at him. "Yes, Thettlethorn? I'm a bit busy." 

    "I...I'm hungry, really, really hungry-"

    "Then go get some food."

    The child seemed to start getting desperate, and it was easy to see his ribs sticking through his fur. "But I c-can't hunt, and everytime I ask someone for food they just tell me to go ask you..."

    Kalile barely even payed him any mind, just flicked her tail. "Go find some berries or something."

    "Mom, please! Just something, anything! I'm starving-"

    Seeming to be thoroughly annoyed by the child, Kalile stood up, shoving him out of the den. She turned to Lanasi, sighing. "Don't mind him. He likes getting on my nerves."

    Mom? What kind of mother- she doesn’t even look like a mom.. she smiled uneasily. ‘’Maybe you should give hump some food?’’ She prompted. ‘’He r-really did seem hungry and there was this giant bird just pinned against a tree, maybe h-he could eat that?’’ She stammered.

    Kalile just nodded, seemingly thinking about something. The nicheling in front of her nudged her, and she snapped out of it, going right back to talking to him.

     

    The nicheling jolted awake, fur bristling. He relaxed when he saw the two. "Um, hi-sorry, I've been very tired lately." He stood up, stretching briefly before walking up to the two. "What do you need?"

    She sat down awkwardly. What was she thinking about? She wondered, taking the feather and playing with it idly. She casted a few nervous glances at the other nichelings

  3. Just now, Possum Girl said:

    "Hm?" She looked up, before smiling at Lanasi. "Oh, you can just sleep in here. Nobody really comes in here anymore, we're the only one left who sleep here. The others...moved on."

    She smiles and nods. ‘’Oh um thanks! I’ll tell my girlfriend and the other travelers that we can sleep here when she gets back.’’

  4. 1 minute ago, Possum Girl said:

    "He was here a while ago, I don't think he's in the tree though, Jest. He...didn't even follow us."

     

    Kalile sat to the side of the den, talking to some other nicheling. The den was mostly empty, but it was quite bright with all the jungle flowers.

     

    He pushed into the small den, gesturing to a nicheling sleeping by a pool of water in the middle. "There he is-sorry if he gets a little mad, he's been busy lately." Before he left, he turned back for a moment. "If you see mo-I mean, Kalile-can you tell her I was looking for her? She...hasn't been around all day, I'm starving..." He mumbled the last part, before slipping away. 

    Ah spooked at the den walls, very impressed by their beauty before her eyes landed on Kalile and then looked at the floor. ‘’Um.. do you know if there’s a place my friends and I could stay for a night?’’ She asked, steadying her voice and looking up at her again 

  5. 2 minutes ago, Possum Girl said:

    "Sure, I haven't hunted in a while. It'll probably be nice to brush up on my skills-I'm getting rusty." She chuckled, quickly stretching before walking into the jungle. "I'll be back soon!"

    The nicheling nodded, standing up and walking towards a small den towards the back of the camp. "This way-I'm Thettlethorn, by the way."

    Juniper was at a loss-what was she supposed to say? She was never that great at comforting people, and she doubted that she would be any help when she was on edge herself...

    She smiled and wandered into a den cautiously. Gods I’m so luck.. she though as she entered the den Kalile went into.

    (I’m going to go to sleep soon because it’s seven and I have to get up before 3 today)

  6. 3 minutes ago, Possum Girl said:

    "I'm close."

    Jubileze jolted, whipping around to look at the source of the noise. A small nicheling sat just a few feet away, blinking up at the two. His ears were scarred and torn, and it was difficult to even see them flicking. "You were looking for the healer, right?"

     

    "We'll probably have to stay here for at least a night, maybe eat something...I'm starving."

     

    She followed his gaze, narrowing her eyes at the hole in the tree. "What's wrong with the hole? It's a bit spooky, but...I don't think there's anything in it? Hopefully?"

    Lanasi nods. ‘’Maybe you should go find some food and I’ll go see if there’s somewhere our group can sleep?’’

  7. 1 minute ago, FawnCat said:

    Issi gave Finch a glance. "Finch, do you want-" Wait, Jubileze already seem uncomfortable with just me tagging along maybe she wouldn't want more to come. "Finch, can you keep an eye on the children while I go with Jubileze?"

    Issi turned her gaze skyward as she wants to curse at the idea of actually having to talk to that female again. "No, let's just ask someone close."

    He nods and waves. He turned his gaze towards Bubbli and Henanasire.

  8. 5 minutes ago, Possum Girl said:

    "Let's not think about apes of all things right now-maybe we should try and meet some other nichelings? This tribe is pretty big, it might be useful to know some others."

    She shook her head. ‘’They seem.. dangerous. Maybe we should keep out distance and leave soon?’’

  9. 1 minute ago, Possum Girl said:

    "They probably killed it-but I have no idea why they would just leave their prey tacked up on a tree..." She shook her head. "This tribe is weird, especially that one girl."

    Bubbli was still staring at the tree, only glancing away for moment to face Issi. "We'll be fine, mom." 

    ‘’Yeah.. it’s almost like they’re asking for an ape to kill them..’’

  10. 2 minutes ago, Possum Girl said:

    Snowdove followed, cringing a bit at the previous exchange. "That was weird-did you see those skulls? They were hung up the same way that bird was..."

     

    "Mhm..." Jubileze stared at the ground, swiping a leave around with her paw. She didn't...look too great. "Hey, Issi? Do you think they have a healer here? I...don't feel that well."

    (Oh no jubileze is pregnant-?)
    She tilted her head ‘’yeah.. it was similar actually.’’ She said, her voice and eyes less distracted. She fidgeted with the feather behind her ear

  11. 4 minutes ago, mr.Owger said:

    "Why would I? What can be better than stories of great accomplishments, which are lighting our souls on fire with inspiration?"

    This is can be actually interesting, if he has any truth in him. Poor boy.

    Morgan laid down right where she was previously stuck, and put her muzzle on front paws, getting comfortable. Sun was slowly setting down, and she had nothing to do, really, just recently been eating to a full belly.

    "I'm Morgan, by the way." She said kindly.

    ‘’I’m AARM!’’ He said, yelling the strange acronym. ‘’And um.. oh! I really ought to be going now, it’s getting late and I forgot to clean pet walrus deer!’’

    She blinked. "Probably? I'm starting to feel uneasy like this..."

     

     

    The strange nicheling walked forward, sitting down heavily in front of the group. "I'm Hajanku. You won't need to stay long, I already have things figured out." They paused, staring directly at Jubileze. They slowly walked towards her, ear flicking. "You won't be at peace for long." They mumbled, before backing away, eyes still locked on the paralyzed nicheling. "You can all go."

    She shuffled out of the den.

  13. 6 minutes ago, mr.Owger said:

    "Heroic, huh?" she smiled, with a little mischief, hidden in a corner of this sly grin - letting his last question pass. "I bet you've done a lot of great deeds, then. Enlighten me! Perhaps, I even heard of you, while travelling."

    He looked caught off guard. ‘No I’m sure you wouldn’t want to be bored by my tales. Which they’re are many of!’’

    Snowdove shoved her way into the den, looking around the slightly cramped space. Stones and the bones of prey lined the walls, several small skulls tacked up by sharp sticks or rocks. A nicheling sat in the middle, their head slowly-unnaturally, even-turning to look at the group. What seemed to be the skull of a bearyena sat upon their head, and they blinked.

    "I take it you're new?"

    ‘’Um yeah!’’ Lanasi said, eyeing up the skulls. They didn’t seem to be bothering her so much, she was still just flustered

  15. 1 minute ago, mr.Owger said:

    "Well... Don't touch me, then. And we will get along swimmingly." Morgan huffed, and relaxed, even if just a little. Her expression turned from offended, to disgruntled and after - earnest, in a matter of seconds. Than, she, all of the sudden, bowed. 

    "I owe you. Thank you."

    He smiled again. ‘I’m known to be quite heroic y’know.’’his grin became less strained again and more flirty. ‘’So a lovely lass like you can’t possibly be single?’’ He sad I’m an asking tone.

    Snowdove narrowed her eyes at Lanasi, before whipping around walking towards the place where Kalile had said they should go. Something seemed to be bothering her.

    She whirled around and ran after Snowdove. ‘’This place is totally weird.’’

  17. Just now, Possum Girl said:

     

    "Feel free to go wherever! Though I suggest that you start over there." Kalile gestured to some sort of den in between two trees, made out of the roots from both. "Hajanku will...see if you fit in." And with that, she left, ducking into another den.

    She stared after her, not moving. Her eyes were soft and she looked like she was day dreaming

  18. 1 minute ago, mr.Owger said:

    "Sometimes, you just get stuck. That's how things are working." Morgan stretched out, as soon as her freedom returned; like big puppy, she pulled her back, and even turned in a snow a few times, sneezing a little. After this small celebration was done and white one pressed his mouth to her paw, she abruptly moved away from him, almost jumping, pulling up not only her weak paw, pressing it to the fur of her chest, but a strong one, too, in defending stance.

    Yeah, this gentleman helped her out - but no, no unnecessary touching. Na-ah. She almost bit him, for crying out loud!

    "Why are you behaving yourself so creepy, lad? For North sake..."

    Creepy? He asked, his crooked grin looking a bit strained. ‘’Lass I assure you that I am a quality man who would never behave in a creepy manner!’’ AARM said in am offended tone

    Kalile lead through the jungle, weaving around several large trees and even jumped over a carnivorous plant as it tried to eat her. This girl was weird.

    "Here we are!" She jumped forward, smiling back at the group. Ahead was a large clearing, filled to the brim with nichelings. A absolutely gigantic jungle tree-probably the biggest one on the island-stood in the center, the middle of the trunk bearing a hole that looked like it was very forcefully made.

    She smiled softly. Damn her smile is perfect- stop it Lanasi. Girlfriend, remember that!

  20. 2 minutes ago, mr.Owger said:

    By the end of this concert, Morgan was still stuck. Still held out her one strong paw, uncomfortably. And still didn't even know what to think of it all.

    Surprisingly, she didn't cover her ears. And even smiled, somewhat genuine this time. Yes, song was quite typical and full of cliches, but it was quite a while since she hard at least somewhat of a music. 

    "That was pretty nice, actually. Needed of a little practice, but still - not bad. Not bad at all." One important thing she didn't mention was her lack of ear for music.

    He grabbed his paw and pulled her out. After doing so he pressed his crooked, deformed snout to her paw. ‘’How did you get stuck m’lady?’’

    "Great!" Kalile giggled, letting out what sounded like a purr. She hopped over a root poking from the ground, leading the way deeper into the jungle. "Just watch your step! The rivers seem to be popping up more often lately!"

    Lanasi nodded and used her short legs to jump over the root and follow her

  22. 2 minutes ago, FawnCat said:

    Issi smiled at her. "Maybe. Bubbli, Hennasire let's go." Issi looked over to Finch who has been quiet the whole time. "Finch, are you coming?"

    He nods, seeming also dazed but able to recover quickly, making it questionable to weather he was staring at Kalile or not.

  23. 1 minute ago, mr.Owger said:

    Needless to say, Morgan was not impressed. It was hard to impress her in general, unless the topic of discussion turned out to be something, or someone, who could've, potentially, beat her up - so was the power of respect. But approached silhouette turned out to be... well...

    At least this gentleman, whoever he was, offered her help? This is nice.

    This actually can be fun. If they together could figure out a way to unstuck her out of this humiliating situation.

    "Song of a freedom - that could be nice" she smiled, disarmingly and surprisingly sweet, which was so in contrast with hard voice, handing the stranger her own paw.

    He tilted his head and though.. for a while.. ‘‘I don’t know any about that.’’ He said, breaking into a ballad about love and romance and something that would generally make nichelings run away from him either because his voice was off key and pitchy, or because being serenaded by a rouge male is enough to make anyone uncomfy.

    He finishes and looks down at her.
