[PRP] I Believe We've Met

[Tisiphone]

Boma'burudi, the goddess of minerals had decided to take a vacation, one where no mortals could interrupt her daily routine. Boma had, had some good experiences and encounters in the Haven. Having never actually witness the gate to heaven, the siamese lioness wanted to get a good look at them.

Boma's wings rattled lightly together as she ruffled them, she wasn't used to the snow or cold and she half heartedly thought that perhaps she would rust with all the precipitation.

"So this is it.." she murmured looking at the gate curiously.  

[Tisiphone]

Boma survey the area and took a sigh of relief, she wasn't feeling confused or emotional here, she felt more at home than ever before, a bit more at home than even in the earth.

Her eyes caught movement and she turned toward the source, "Hello?" She called and walked toward the moving snow, "Oh..ho, sorry didn't mean to interrupt your...digging?" She grinned at the little white goddess.  

[Tisiphone]

"A snow den?" Boma peered down at the little goddess' work, "Well, that's some pretty superb work you're doing there." Boma'burudi peered at the little goddess curiously.

"My name is Boma'burudi, I am the goddess of Minerals, are you the goddess of snow?" She chuckled, the little dear was white, and she was digging in the white fluffy snow.

"Are those your butterflies?"  

[Tisiphone]

The siamese colored lioness peered at the little one, "You're Mtima'safi?" A look of confusion and sadness spread across her face, "It's a pleasure to re-meet you. I think we've met in your past, if you are who you say you are." Boma couldn't help but feel sad, she sat down slowly looking at the little yellow and purple goddess.

"I guess butterflies in the snow is kind of funny." Not as funny as this little surprise, she thought.

"You look sort of like before, you were purple and yellow then." Boma was in an odd babbling state of shock.  

[Tisiphone]

"I think yellow and purple suits you very well, little Mtima. It's just a shock to see you..so..so little." Boma flashed a small smile, "The last time I saw you, you were an adult and very nice, old you helped me through a lot of bad feelings."

Boma was at a loss for what to do next, she sat frozen very close to the reborn form of her former friend, the only friend she really ever had. She fluttered her wings trying to calm herself and the clanging of them together brought her to her senses, "Well..I suppose it's only fitting that I see you some time after you're reborn."

"You see, I was stuck under the Earth for a long, long time and old you was the first face that I saw when I dug myself out," she thought about that for a moment.

"Suppose that makes me a digging expert, w-uh-would you like help with your snow den? I guess it's too small for a big goddess like me, hmm?" She was trying to avoid the idea that Mtima'safi had somehow died.  

[Tisiphone]

Boma'burudi stepped to the side and started to push a mound of snow to add to Mtima's pile of snow.

"We'll need an awful lot of snow for me to fit in it too," she mumbled and turned around to start pushing more snow toward the pile, "Is this much snow okay? What would you like?" Boma felt a little nervous, she wasn't used to spending time with young lions..mortal or immortal.  

[Tisiphone]

"How about we stop adding and build it around?" She smiled, little Mtima was cute, even though she was a very large reminder of what happened to gods who passed on and were reborn. How things could easily be changed!

She patted some of the snow down to for more of a wall around Mtima'safi. "I'll duck down if anyone is coming, that way you can hide and play here. And you'll be able to see if anyone is coming."

Boma resisted the urge to allow her mind to be muddled, she was thinking of Mtima, leaving Tetemeko with her old friend, asking her friend to return him to his father. And how Mtima seemed so at home with the mortal world once. She looked perfect here as well, like she could fit in anywhere.

 

[Tisiphone]

Boma tucked her tail and wings close to her and practiced ducking down for little Mtima's amusement. "I'm pretty sure I wont be seen." She laughed happily.

"It's like you have a snow throne, like a princess." the goddess laughed again.

"What now?" She wondered if she was bothering the young goddess, messing up her games.
