 ((I'll also be RPing her with her snake familiar. I'll post a pic up later, but he's just a plain black cobra with green eyes)) She lay on her side, her head pillowed against a slope in the sand, warm and comfortable to use as a place to take a mid-afternoon nap. Around her neck - and draped across her snout - a black cobra slept soundly. The two were not often seen apart nowadays, especially now that Fia was big enough to carry the snake around with her. When she had been younger, her paws had often found ways to tread on him as he tried to keep up with her and that...of course...had not gone well. The two often argued - though it was more affectionate recently - and though he would not bite her, he had quite a way with words.
The eldest daughter of Kidondo and No stirred a little and the snake flexed but did not awaken. The sun always had a way of making him drowsy.
And yet, among those dark coils, the flash of an eye came into being - one the colour of dark-green glass. If her other was to open, it would be as the colour of the sand - one of each eye gifted to her by her parents.
Fia was waking.

 Several months in the pride had done well for Kichomo'damu. He'd been strong and quick when he came into the pride...but for those who did not know better, he could have looked born into the pride. Except for his very BLUE eyes. He stretched before continuing on. He'd decided to go out on his day off, rather than just lay about in his den. Rest was good, laziness was not. He'd had enough rest the night before and earlier that day.
He slowed when he saw the black and red among the sand ahead of him. He didn't think he'd end up finding company. They appeared to be resting though, since there seemed to be no sign of injury. But...well, best to be sure. Zii'd not forgive him if the case turned out to be otherwise.
"Hello?"

There you go. Her other eye opened and as mismatched as they were, they somehow seemed perfectly suited to her face. In fact, it were the colours of the eyes that told the two twins apart. For, in every other way, they were alike.
At the sound of the voice, she pulled herself up onto her stomach and shook her head gently, stirring the snake who slithered down onto his belly before her.
"Hello?" She echoed softly. And then, immediately, her eyes brightened and she raised herself up onto her paws and dipped her head a little. She'd not personally met this lion before but she had heard of him. His markings were very distinctive, after all, and this could be no other lion.
"Well, well." She smiled. "Aren't you the handsome one?" An ear flicked idly and she stepped forwards.
But in the same motion the snake swept his head up and hissed in warning, preventing Fia from taking another step. He was a supersticious fellow and the markings on this one were...odd indeed.
The snake had been raised to find dark and ominous meanings in everything. The markings on pelts were something that interested him greatly and what had drawn him to Fia in the first place.
"Sssstay back." The snake hissed quietly, his head waving to and fro.

Ah good. She had been just resting. Her markings looked rather familiar...ah! She could only be one of Kidondo's cubs (though they certainly weren't cubs anymore!). He hadn't been expecting the 'handsome' comment, though. Handsome? He knew he was rather distinctive looking...but handsome? If he could have blushed, he would have.
"Er...thank you." He still wasn't very good with words around those he wasn't well-acquainted with. He looked to the snake, curious, and bowed his head to it.
"I apologize for interrupting your rest. I wasn't sure if you simply were resting, or something else." Despite the undertone of concern, the words were brief and not a sound was wasted or drawn out.
