Sawa, like so often before, had left Siyo to his own devices. He liked going off on his own, it was much easier to meet girls this way! His tail flicked as he roamed through the foreign land he'd slipped into, tongue lolled from his mouth as he panted in the hot sun. Normally he went out in the night and slept through the day, but he was feeling a bit more restless than usual.
He sighed and looked around dully, feeling bored. Wasn't this land crawling with girls like the pridelands were? He frowned, getting a little sulky. But then he spotted something! Darker than the grass and was it... why yes!
A girl his own age! Bingo.... wait... what was she doing? He made a face as he got closer, squinting to see. Sawa never judged what girls did for fun until he's really gotten to know what it was. I'm sure he'd stay away from any girls that killed for fun though.
"Ello there lil' lady." He said pleasantly, thinking himself quite funny for calling her 'little lady' since she was his age. But smaller. Was she staring at an ant hole? He frowned. "Do no' ants bite?" He asked curiously, finally next to her and peering down close to them. He had no sense of personal space, really!

Jini wasn't accustomed to spending times with lions as friendly as Sawa. Her brothers treated her with cool indifference a lot of the time and, well, the young lioness hadn't really spent much time with her sisters. It felt so odd, being spoken to and complimented like this.
Not that she was complaining. Before she had time to collect any of her thoughts, Jini had to admit that she genuinely liked the male beside her. How could she not, when he was smiling at her like that?
"I am clever," Jini repeated and backed away from the anthill, suddenly more interested in Sawa than she was in the little, black insects.
"My name's Jini," she returned gratefully, "Are you from around here?"
She'd certainly never seen him before.

The more he talked, the more she warmed up to him. Jini was having a bit of difficulty believing Sawa's friendly, open disposition but, as she gazed upon his smiling face, her doubts were easily pushed to the side. There was no way somebody could pretend to be as charming as he was at that particular moment. It must have been a natural talent. Jini envied him for it.
"It's lovely to meet you too, Sawa," the sweet smile on her face transformed into an ear splitting grin when he announced that he wasn't from the Kusini lands, "What place do you call home, then? I love to travel myself, so I might have visited there once or twice without even knowing it?"
It was true. Jini spent more time wandering foreign lands than she did at home, which accounted for most of her skinny, slightly muscular frame. She wasn't a very big lioness, that was for sure, but she was light and built for speed- perfect for somebody who loved to run.
"Or really?" she asked him, curiosity peeked at the mention of his friend, "Whose your buddy? Maybe I know him?"
It was unlikely.

He didn't have a home and he could go wherever he wanted?
Those words clung to Jini's ears like sap clings to trees. She has always been an adventurous lioness and, while she was very loyal to the lands where she'd grown up, the adolescent couldn't help but imagine what it might be like to wander wherever she pleased, and have no obligation to return, well, anywhere. The only definite thing tying her to her homelands was her family who, even though she hadn't spent much time with anybody specifically and she didn't even get along very well with a couple of her litter mates, was very dear to her.
She would miss them all terribly if she were to stay away for any long period of time.
"I think I've been to the pride lands," she said conversationally, and a picture of Kura, the oh-so frustrating male that she had been, apparently, doomed to think about forever floated into her head. Jini shook the image out of her head, and turned her attention back to the lion in front of her.
"I've never met any Siyo," Jini shrugged simply, and then smiled, "odds are that I'm related to him, though."
It was rare for her to meet somebody in the Kusini lands that she didn't share blood with.

"Good bye, Sawa," she said easily, with a pensive expression on her face as she watched him stroll away from her. Their meeting had been incredibly brief, but he'd left an impression on her like nobody else had been able to before.
Jini had always loved adventure and traveling as far as the eye could see. She'd been brave enough, once, to venture a long ways from home- and had had one of the most unique experiences in her life. She'd swam in the ocean and met a very blind, though rather unfriendly lion.
The last part was nothing new. Most of the men she'd met, with the exception of Sawa, were inconsiderate and prone to temper tantrums.
All at once, Jini knew that she wanted to go wherever her paws would carry her and she had every intention of doing just that.
