Karm basked in the dim sunlight of the oncoming evening. Dusk was one of the best times of the day. Everything was quiet..well, except for Fen'lis scuttling paws. She was still moving. How was that possible?
"Please Fen...just, just stop now. No one is even watching. What does it matter."
There was no one to put a face on for
"How do you know?" Fen'li said sticking her tongue out, moving things out of teh way, clearing an area and moving things about in a not so very organized fashion. "What if someone is watching, like a test, a secret test, and you fail. What would happen? I'd have to protect you then!"
Fen beamed, but with a moemtn of looking towards Karm, her smile faded.
"I...I could...protect myself."
"Please," Karm began, "you wouldn't know what to do. You'd hit the ground like the worms they want us to be...waiting to be stepped on."
"We are to be small, lower, it is respectful!" Fen argued, turning away slightly. Karm never seemed to understand. Or even try.

 It had been a quiet day on the Askorun front. Not that he minded. Being able to lay out and relax was a nice option too. Particularly when days got hot. The well muscled male didn't enjoy sparring in the heat nearly as much, but did what he had to. He'd just gotten done with his turn taking challengers and was strolling the pride. The last bit of a conversation caught his ear and he turned toward the two.
Bousvor blinked slowly as he recognized one of the lionesses, a thrall, he'd met earlier. "Who does?" He asked softly as he came a bit closer. It would be interesting to know who in the pride wanted them to be like worms. Not that it was an attitude he felt himself, and also felt it was unworthy of a stormborn.

Karm looked up once hearing a voice, and as she saw the male approach, rose to her feet at the ready. Not to help, serve, nothing like that. Maybe to answer, "are we not to be lesser?"
"Stopiit, stoppit," Fen'li said, though as she looked between them, they seemed to know each other. Fen'li scuttled a little closer to the male, just before Karm could stop her. Fen'li stayed close to the ground, being low, yes, respectful meant a lower posture, let the other have a higher stature. This male indeed seemed of higher stature. "Please, pay no mind she just..has a hard time, yes," Fen'li said looking to the ground.
"Oh, he knows," Karm said, "we've spoken once before. May friend here, Fen'li might enjoy aiming to please, but I want to enjoy another life where I can put strength to use," the idea of coddling cubs...no, she's raise any cubs she'd have to be true fighters, warriors.
"You've spoken, well, he must have come because he needs you. or us, maybe?" Fen'li said to him, name unknown, "I am Fen'li, you already know Karm, must you need our help?" She was so naive indeed.

"Not worms," the male replied mildly. The dark lioness intrigued him with her attitude. He'd seen no signs that she was being treated so lowly, but she seemed to think she was. Bousvor quietly compared the two. One loud and outspoken, almost belligerent. One timid and docile, almost meek. Interesting. Karm didn't seem like the type to hang around this other lioness, yet she was.
The male took a seat and gestured with a paw for the white female to sit up if she wished. His eyes shifted between them. "Can be of use here." Privately he felt the lioness might be limiting herself just a bit. He smiled gently at the white lioness. "Passing, heard." Thankfully he hadn't anything for a pair of thralls to do. "Bousvor," he gave his own name with a nod.

Karm grit her jaw together to hold in a comment, to keep herself from saying something that perhaps might land her in an even deeper predicament. But how he acted so calm, almost, regal, and how Fen'li looked at him with such intent and a willingness to help and please, it annoyed Karm, to say the least.
"Bousvor," Fen'li repeated, getting used to the name, Fen'li turned to Karm, "He seems very nice, why do you act in such a manner? Fen'li is confused," she said with her ears falling back. As Bousvor motioned she could stand up a little more, Fen'li did so, but still kept herself smaller in stature to him. Truth be told in comparison, he was a deal larger than her.
"Just passing then?" Karm questioned. Seemed unlikely, and almost, strange. Odd. But perhaps she was over thinking.
Fen'li, at Karm's words, ducked a little watching the two, there seemed to be tension, and she did not understand.

Gentle green eyes watched the dark lioness. "Torn within?" He asked softly. Without evidence to mistreatment, he began looking at other possibilities. Clearly she was angry. But at what or whom? Bousvor suspected that she was truly angry with herself, but taking it out on the lions who had captured her. Then there was the other lioness. Why would she be around someone who wouldn't stand up for herself?
"Caring for her?" He nodded to Fen'li with a smile. Was Karm simply friends or more than that? Bousvor took a moment to before answering her question. He would really have enjoyed some time to just chat, or more listen in his case, even with these thralls. "If no talk, I leave," his tone was sad as he said it. He wouldn't stick around if his company was unwanted.

Karm eyed him, "perhaps, problem with that?" did he understand her predicament? "I will find a way to rise, someday, you shall see," she said simply.
"Do not fret our visitor with such words! You'll scare him! He is quite nice!" Fen'li said.
When he questioned Karm, she tilted her head. "She is my sister..like my sister..sort of. She found me, we are like sisters now, my best friend," Fen'li said with a nod.
"I watch over her..protect her," Karm said simply. "Do you have family, that you care for as such?" she was curious, actually, to know if there were more like him with such a ..strange disposition.

DragonsRage24 Sorry I didn't get back to this!
"Ah, excellent to have." He smiled at Fen'li. She was sweet and he was glad she had someone strong to care for her. He understood Karm's feeling in a way too. For he protected the pride. Regretfully he shook his head. "Not yet." He hadn't considered a family or found a lioness he would consider for that position. Some day perhaps.
