Burilda flopped over on top of Leyak when he pulled her down; not really having been able to catch her balance that fast. Once she was on top of him and giggled even more; pawing at his face in a playful manner and going to pull and tug on his ear like she did with her sister on the rare occasion that they scuffled.
"This is fun!" She called to him as she rolled off of him and got into a sort of pouncing position. Trying to growl but doing a shabby job of it all together. Her tail swished back and forth playfully; as if she was about to catch something she'd been chasing after. Or as if she was about to sneak up on someone; even though she knew she was in plain sight to him the whole time.
((And in case she hasn't said it already)) "My names Burilda!" She told him still smiling widely from all the fun she was having. "What's yours?"

He kicked and flailed wildly while she was on top, until one of his legs finally caught her and she rolled off. He sprung to his feet, shaking his head to clear it.
“Leyak!” he shouted, his name a battle cry as he jumped her in the middle of her position. He was having fun as well, though he had the goal of winning in mind behind it. The best way to do that, he thought, was to not give her a moment’s rest.
While they struggled for position, he grunted out a question, “I’ll have to go home in… a little while, but…” he let out a cracking growl and threw his shoulder into Burilda’s side, “I can stay here for a little while longer.”
((we can skip some of this play fighting if you'd like... or not - up to you. XP))

I spent like... literally 12 hours with this open... >_> with a reply in it <_< ))
She squealed and fell over with a thud when he threw his shoulder into her like that. "Me too!" She called. Her mother wouldn't be coming back from her routine rounds around the pride for another few hours... she could still play until then at least.
Burilda laughed and giggled as she and Leyak battled it out as fiercely as they could with only being two cubs. Once she was done though; she let him know. She stopped playing all together. She just laid there; panting and looking up at him with her tongue lolling out a big smile on her face still; despite being worn out.
"Ok." She told him trying to wriggle out from underneath him. "You win Leyak!" She told him rolling over to her stomach in a submissive sort of way like what she would see her mommy do when her and her dad play fought. "That was lots of fun!" She giggled to him happily; closing her eyes and still trying to catch her breath from it all.

((XD Damn, that sucks.))
Leyak’s muscles were trembling with effort by the time she gave in, and he felt a little dizzy from all the tumbling. If she’d held out any longer his limbs would have turned soft as freshly grown grass and he would have had to give up himself. As it was though, he held her down with a victorious grin until she rolled over submissively. Then he moved off, panting a little and not saying anything until the fire left his lungs and he could keep his tongue inside his mouth in a more dignified manner.
“It was,” he finally agreed, and went on excitedly. “I saw some adults fighting once, two males. They weren’t very serious about it, just threatening each other I think, but whenever they hit each other it looked like it really hurt. When we get that big, it’s going to be so incredible.” He grinned to think of it. Playing like this now was fun, but his body felt small and uncoordinated, not to mention fairly harmless. It was gratifying to think one day he and his siblings would be immense, dangerous lions like his parents.

Burilda looked up at him with big wide eyes. She'd always been afraid to get anywhere near any of those adult fights. She was always afraid one of them would be thrown; and then she'd be caught up in it or something; and she wasn't big enough to fight back right now. But that he'd actually gotten close enough to a big lions fight; that he could watch it; that was really impressive to her. He must be fearless!
She frowned slightly and rolled over onto her stomach; laying her head on the ground and tilting it to the side to look up at him. "I don't think I want to fight like that!" She said nervously. "I want to be sneaky! And pounce someone when they least expect it! I'm really good at doing!" She told him proudly; her tail lifting itself into the air and ticking back and forth; her ears up and facing forward.
"I bet I'd be a really good assassin!" She said energetically lifting herself to her feet in a heart beat. "I'd be the best assassin ever!"

The awed look on her face sent a small wave of pride through Leyak, and his grin became prideful. He settled and rested on haunches and elbows as she talked so they could speak at eye level and rest. Then she stood, annoyingly enough, but he opted for laziness and grinned up at her from the ground. It was an interesting idea she had, and it reminded him of how he’d pounced her rather effectively a few minutes ago when he’d dropped out of the bush. “Probably,” he agreed, glad to encourage her exuberance. Whether that was to see his new playmate full of joy or to see if she might trip over being out of breath and absurdly excited was his own business. “Next time you’ll have to try sneaking up on me.”
