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
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."
6 minutes ago, FawnCat said:"Oh, my friend isn't feeling so well and I was wondering if you could have a look at her."
"Alright." He gently nudged Jubileze to lay down in a nest, sitting down next to her. He looked up at Issi, flicking an ear. "You can wait outside-people tend to walk in uninvited a lot, and it's really distracting to have people watching you. Just make sure nobody else comes in."

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.’’
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.
8 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Issi frowned. Was he about to say mother? He said he's hungry. Is she not feeding her child? Issi wanted to follow and get and explanation but she didn't want to mix with that female. "Jubileze, let's wake him up and ask to see how you are ok." She went foward but not to close making sure she could still move away if need be. "Excuse me!"
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?"
-
2 minutes ago, Flour said:
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
"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."

After a bit his eyes widened even more and he looked around. "Where'd Everest go? Is he in the tree?-" He whipped his head around frantically, trying to fight the urge to ran towards the tree.
"He was here a while ago, I don't think he's in the tree though, Jest. He...didn't even follow us."
2 minutes ago, Flour said: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)
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.
1 minute ago, FawnCat said:"I'm Issi." She gave him name hesitantly. She looked at Jubileze, wondering what she thought of him. Let's hope he's trustful.
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.
-
9 minutes ago, Flour said:
Lanasi nods. ‘’Maybe you should go find some food and I’ll go see if there’s somewhere our group can sleep?’’
"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!"
10 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Jumping at the sudden voice she bit down the yelp. "Yes?" Issi eyed him. I wonder if it's from battles or punishment. "Do you know the way?"
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."
11 minutes ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:"B-But what if there is? What if.." Board.. Fire.. Everest.. Tree.. Pit.. "What if somebody's being hurt in there? What if it's a child? Oh it's a child isn't it?"
His talking had turned into mumbled rambling as he stared at the hole with dilated pupils. He seemed to absently scratch at the side of his head, ears twitching a lot.
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...

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."
"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?"
6 minutes ago, Flour said:She shook her head. ‘’They seem.. dangerous. Maybe we should keep out distance and leave soon?’’
"We'll probably have to stay here for at least a night, maybe eat something...I'm starving."
6 minutes ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:He looked at her, trying to calm his wide eyes and trembling. "Erm- yeah- just.." He stared back at hole in the tree, trying to think of something.
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?"
-
8 minutes ago, Flour said:
‘’Yeah.. it’s almost like they’re asking for an ape to kill them..’’
"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."
5 minutes ago, FawnCat said:"Alright, but remember my words Bubbli." Issi rubbed her head against Bubbli's. "Hennasire, try and keep her out of trouble." Looking back at Jubileze with concern she nodded at the children and set off to find a healer. I don't want to leave Bubbli alone right now but I can't keep treating her like a child. Look what happened last time when I tried to keep her cooped up. Issi signed. "Having children is so much work. Jubileze be glad you don't have any. It's a lot of stress some days."
"Yeah..." She mumbled, looking down at her paws. "Anyway, who should we ask about the healer? We obviously have no idea where it is...maybe we can find that Kalile girl again..."
3 minutes ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:Jest just sorta sat a little bit away from the others, listening to the conversation but not actually joining in. He had his tail still curled around Juniper- just because he wanted to keep her as close as possible.
He kept looking back at the huge tree and back at the group. Something about it just- really seemed to get under his skin.
"Jest? Are you okay?" Juniper asked, seeming concerned for him. She couldn't understand why he was so nervous.
-
3 minutes ago, Flour said:
(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"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."
4 minutes ago, FawnCat said:"They should have one but whether I would trust them or not is another case." There is also that small matter... "I'll go with you to make sure they don't try anything." Issi looked at the children and pondered. "Do you two want to come with us to the healers or stay with Snowdove and the rest?"
Bubbli was still staring at the tree, only glancing away for moment to face Issi. "We'll be fine, mom."
-
3 minutes ago, Flour said:
She shuffled out of the den.
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..."
3 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Issi didn't think twice before rushing herself and the children out of the den. "Jubileze, don't think about it to much. The old are always way to superstitious."
"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."
-
1 minute ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:
Jest shook his head and looked over at Juniper, trying to hide his fear. The look of fear on him just didn't seem to fit him- two claws, saber teeth and savannah horns? Yeah- he's not one for fear.
"Should we uh- Follow the others?" He still kept a hushed voice. It was hard for him to keep his eyes off the hole in the tree for too long- but he did his best to keep eye contact.
She blinked. "Probably? I'm starting to feel uneasy like this..."
10 minutes ago, Flour said:‘’Um yeah!’’ Lanasi said, eyeing up the skulls. They didn’t seem to be bothering her so much, she was still just flustered
6 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Issi walked in and eyed the skulked nicheling with slight shock. It reminds me of... Issi shook her head. I can't think of her now. But this nicheling doesn't seem exactly normal.
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."
-
6 minutes ago, Flour said:
She whirled around and ran after Snowdove. ‘’This place is totally weird.’’
5 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Issi frowned at the name that seemed familiar. Hajanku. That name. Her frown deepen. "Best we go great them then." Issi was already regretting her choice but knew it was still for the best.
Issi looked at her daughter but said nothing. She had a feeling and it wasn't good at all.
1 minute ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:Jest did his best to hide his panic. He narrowed his eyes at the den Kalile had motioned to, then went back to looking around to see if there were any pits in sight. Or just- any abnormally large hole in the ground. He seemed to tremble a little- but he's too tough for that- he tried his best to calm himself down.
There shouldn't be a pit, right..? No holes.. Only the one in the tree... WAIT- WHAT IF THAT'S WHERE THE PIT IS?
He started to stare at the huge tree with wide eyes, looking it up and down. Maybe that's why is was so huge?
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?"
-
Just now, Flour said:
She stared after her, not moving. Her eyes were soft and she looked like she was day dreaming
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.
-
4 minutes ago, FawnCat said:
Issi avoided the carnivorous plant and warned the children about it too. This female is to much could she not have just told them about it.
The hole in the tree gave a bit of an uneasy feeling inside her heart at the thought of how it was made. She eyed the nichelings. There are so many. What about the apes? "Bubbli, Hennasire keep an eye on each other and don't wader off with any of them even of you feel like it understood." Issi whispered to the children with a serious look in her eyes.
The two nodded, though Hennasire seemed scared out of her mind. Bubbli still seemed to be a bit enraptured by the trees. "I...think I may have been here before..." She mumbled.

6 minutes ago, Flour said:
She smiled softly. Damn her smile is perfect- stop it Lanasi. Girlfriend, remember that!
2 minutes ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:Jungle.. Tribe.. Tree.. Nichelings... Wrong... It's all wrong..
Jest tensed up, shaking his head a bit and staring down. His eyes had widened slightly but he's trying not to say anything. What's next- Guards? Is there a pit? Wait... WAIT IS THERE A PIT?
He lifted his head back up and started looking around a bunch, but only moved his head as he somehow kept his paws still.
"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.
-
7 minutes ago, Flour said:
Lanasi nodded and used her short legs to jump over the root and follow her
6 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Issi stared at Finch and frowned slightly but shook it off. I must be thinking to much. "Alright, let's go." Issi followed Kalile from a distance so she could make sure there wasn't anything like hidden traps.
2 minutes ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:"Alright.. Just stick close, alright?" Worried boyfren shall follow with Juniper yes.
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.
-
1 minute ago, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:
Oh dear- Jest just kept Juniper closer to himself. "Do we follow..?" He asked, looking up a little at Juniper. The rivers thing has him worried now.
She nodded, carefully stepping forward. "I would rather not sit here and wait for an ape to come and eat us..."
-
"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!"
-
1 minute ago, Flour said:
She looked at Issi and said ‘’sure!’’ Without really thinking.
Snowdove sighed, but didn't say anything. She had a feeling it would be safer in a tribe than out in the open.
Just now, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:Jest curled his tail around Juniper. Again, he avoided poking her with the tip. He didn't like the vibes the new wanderer gave off. He was avoiding growling at them.
Juniper looked to him, seeming slightly uncomfortable. "This doesn't feel right...." She whispered.
-
2 minutes ago, FawnCat said:
Issi flicked her tail in irritation at the opposing female. I don't like her. "I see. Now that you saw please feel free to leave."
1 minute ago, Flour said:Lanasi glared at the ground. How dare this jaw droppingly gorgeous.. beautiful.. Erm nicheling flirt? I think it was flirting.. with my girlfriend!
Kalile glanced to Lanasi, before backing away from Snowdove and turning to Issi with that same damn smirk. "I don't think that will be necessary-you seem quite lost. I'm assuming you're new here. Say, why don't I bring you all back to my tribe?"
-
1 minute ago, Flour said:
Lanasi looked at her and blushed. Wow pretty... girl pretty.. hhh brain no work.. she regained her wits and looked away.
Just now, FawnCat said:Startled at her appearance Issi growled. "Who are you?"
The female chuckled, her smirk not dropping for a second. "Well, that's a bit needlessly aggressive, don't you think? I'm Kalile, I live in a tribe just over there." She flicked her fluffy tail somewhere to the left. "I heard screaming and came to see what was up-and I am not disappointed, I can say that. You sure are..."
She gracefully leapt forward, every step more like a skip. She stopped in front of Snowdove, lifting a paw up to rest it under the much larger nicheling's chin.
"An interesting bunch." She finished, chuckling as Snowdove cringed backwards.
-
"Well, that was quite a show. Fortunate you acted quickly."
A strange nicheling slunk out of the thick jungle foliage, a sly smirk on her face as she scanned the group. She had soft, curly silver fur and bright blue eyes. Her pelt was covered in white stripes, and a pair of antlers the same shade as the stripes sat atop her head.

damn issi that’s dark-
lanasi nodded and dropped to Hazzards side.
@Possum Girl how’s she doing-(shes just kinda shocked ftyghuijo)
-
Just now, Dysfunctional Numbers Foxy said:
Why not join?- Jest walked up to the plant. Having one normal claw and a bearyena paw (I'm pretty sure those are his genes(?)) comes in somewhat useful I guess.
4 minutes ago, FawnCat said:Issi jumps in slashing at it with her claw. "I'll try."
4 minutes ago, Flour said:Lanasi stepped closer and slashed at it with her clawed paw.
Caution let out a snarl, knowing that trying to stop all of them would be useless. He sat back, glaring at everyone intensely.
It wasn't long before Hazard popped out, gasping for air as she fell to the ground at Issi's feet. She coughed up...something-actually, maybe they didn't want to know.
-
Finally deciding to do something, Jubileze ran forward, slamming to her tail into the plant repeatedly. She payed no mind to Caution trying to pull her back-just kept swinging. "Is anyone going to help me?!" She yelled, very much annoyed that nobody was doing anything.

She paused at the mention of the bird, flicking her tail. "We don't eat those. Mother would be displeased." She hissed, walking out of the den to who knows where.
Jubileze nodded, trying to smile-though it looked anything but genuine.
