Aviva'Kauli & Boma'Burudi
The red-orange eyes of the green lioness panned over the beach, making sure there weren't any predators about. She was surprisingly good with the cub, despite what her existance meant to the older lioness. She was, for sure, a mother in at least her actions. She didn't need a blood relation to care for the pretty thing. "Alright, just don't go far," she finally said, and sat herself down on a rock to oversee the cub's playing along the beach. There truly weren't many predators or threats inside of Kiza - the jungle protected them from the back, and the ocean from the front. She'd see anyone walking on the beach before they got there, of course.
"What a life," she sighed out, though it was certainly pleasant. Since that fateful night that Mundoo had stopped her from leaving, things had been going very well. She felt like, for once, she was safe and belonged some where. This place was somewhere to live, but Mundoo.. he made it home.
The goddess of minerals wandered slowly, heading in the wrong direction from her next mission in life, she was supposed to be seeing her eldest son, a boy she only knew the name of, Tetemeko. A trip to the ocean always seemed to calm her nerves and relax her body, the siamese looking goddes had many underwater caves off of this coast that she hid in when times seemed to be too tough.
Debating on the location of one of her lesser visited caves Boma'burudi spotted a large green group of foliage mixed with some sort of red flower as she approached it she realized that it was a lioness looking over the sandy beach. Pulling in a deep unneeded breath Boma continued on her way, assuming that if the lioness wanted to speak she would initiate the conversation.
Aviva's red-orange eyes shifted, spotting the other with a quirk of her brow. She pushed herself up and a little closer to where the cub frolicked, making sure that she'd be between the lioness and the little girl once the stranger got close. As the other continued to close the distance between them, however, she noticed something she wasn't quite expecting - wings! She knew what that meant. She'd travelled far and wide, and though she'd never met a god or goddess, she knew the rumors.
"Hello there," she called, not too cheerily, but conversationally none-the-less. Her tail flickering behind her, waving the blue tuft calmly.
Unlike Aviva Boma had met many gods and goddesses, not always good ones or bad ones but one thing was certain each mortal too the presence fo a god different. She had seen a mortal attack a god only to die, or seen a mortal court a god and bear his cubs. She gave a toothy smile and realized why the brightly colored lioness moved into the position she did, she was protecting her young.
"Good day, isn't it?" she called back, she feigned happiness for the mortal, "Traveling through, do you know the way to the pride lands through her?" She was going to play lost for this female, she knew exactly where the lands lay.
Aviva had no reason not to trust what the goddess was saying, and thus she believed exactly what she said. By first impressions, the female didn't seem to be much of a threat to the cub, so she relaxed someone - not quite all the way. She stayed where she was, but her smile brightened.
"Very fine day, yes," she said happily enough, a slight purr on her tone. "Oh, yes I do. Would you like me to show you to the border that lies closest to them? It might take a little longer than normal, what with the cub and all, but I can if you're lost." She smiled affecionately back towards the cub, then glanced back at Boma. She felt she was being cautious enough. Misae probably would have known if anyone dangerous was coming into the lands and would have sent someone to tell her by now. The seer queen was a very careful woman when it came to the cubs.
"If you would not mind? Or possibly just point a paw in the right direction," her two toned eyes scanned from the lioness and what Boma Boma at first assumed was her young, however the cub looked absolutely nothing like the presumed mother. "Cubsitting?" she purred. She had always been affectionate to mortal children, she enjoyed their innocence and inquisitiveness.
"I'm Boma by the way," she introduced her self puffing out her chest. She had recently groomed herself and looked shiny from head to toe her gems glittered and her feathers sparkled, "Like I said though, if you could point the way, I wouldn't want to be trouble."
"Cubsitting? I suppose, in a way. She belongs to my.. love interest." She laughed softly, hesitating on saying 'mate' exactly. That's what they both looked forward to, but for now it was best not to assume. "I'm raising her, with him, since the mother is a bird no one can cage." Despite it all, she truly did think fondly of Nyoni, no matter the problems she had caused. Like she and Mundoo fondly remembered, however, the storm before made one appreciate the calm afterward that much more.
"I'm Aviva," she said with a dipped bow, taking in the sparkling gems that dotted the other's coat with quite a bit of interest. She would soon belong to a pride that loved to cover themselves in jewelry of all sorts, and she had an eye for it herself. She just smiled appreciatively at the sight of them shining and turned her attention back to the female's face. "It wouldn't be any trouble. I travel through the jungle all the time - I know my way there and back with my eyes closed. The little one does too."
Boma wondered if Kubwa would have raised Tetemeko in this way had he found a mate soon after his birth. She smiled though, mortals appreciated love in a different way, a way she could not understand. "pleasure to meet you, Aviva, and an interesting way to raise a child." She smirked, "Well then, my lady lead the way!"
Boma admired the others coat but for other reasons, she had only ever seen someone with so much color that was a god and a demi-god, she had never seen a lioness that was so bright. How she would flip if she ever met a certain neon colored pride.
Aviva paused at the mention of how 'interesting' it was. She furrowed her brows, thinking, then let her smile return with a small roll of her shoulders. "I suppose it is. I do it because I love her father. That, and she needs a mother. As kind as Mundoo is to her, I'd not like to see how she'd turned out with just a male." She chuckled, shrugging once more, "perhaps if she was male, but a female needs a lady."
"Come on, sweetheart!" she called out, waiting only long enough for the cub to catch up before she started into the jungle. She glanced back to make sure that the female was following before she began to pick her way through the foliage of the jungle underfoot. "So what brings you out this way?"
If that was true than Kubwa must have raised Boma's son to be a fine man, but why would it matter? She assumed that a parent was a parent was a parent. She watched as the child caught up and followed Aviva into the jungle, her bulky form finding it a little harder to just pick through the jungle as she moved she stumbled and kept moving correcting any errors she made in stride with the tree frog female.
"I love the sea, there is something hypnotic about it, I have not been here in some time, possibly a year or so," she was not quite sure, time flowed oddly for her, it felt like she had come above the earth years ago. "There is a pride here then, I'd suppose so..."
