Thalion
A curious paw stretched outwards, slowly and cautiously, at the sunlight dancing along the surface of a small, but fairly deep, puddle nessled in-between a pair of large, smooth boulders. Her eyes wide, the cub's imagine carried her from reality within a moment's notice. The shimmering rays had become a colony of firey worms, wriggling and sparkling in blurry, fantastic shapes.
The sunlight fascinated her. On rare occassion, the shimmering shapes would blur together and form a full, complete image. It was always quick, always momentarily, and none of it ever made any sense. They were strange faces, strange locations, even strange creatures she'd never seen in her life. She'd seen everything from a roaring male standing atop a large rock to a massive beast with a nose like a snake and a pair of curled, dangerous tusks sticking from its face.
For the moment- they were glowy worms dancing atop the water. She squealed as she touched the water, the cold water shocking her still tender paw pads. Shaking the droplets of water from her paw, the female slowly stretched her paw out towards the puddle again. Maybe it wouldn't be so cold the second time around...

He shook out the small tuff of mane that was growing in, with his sudden growth spurt, he was quiet pleased with himself, specially as of lately.The warmth of day-dream like visions always left him relaxed and at peace with all that was around him, his parents had been careful to explain to him what was going on, that he wasnt a freak, but merely blessed they said.
As he walked around freely in the pride, he watched some Banu's and their litters, the cubs playing together and for a moment he wished he'd broughten Lililamuna along, she was always good for a game or two but she was busy today, learning the ways of being a good banu since she'd just hit her adolesnce.
Though, the sight of a cub off in the distance perked his curiousity, he padded toward it, until the shape turned into a young female cub, he wondered what on earth was she doing...
Thalion
The cub crossed her eyes, wrinkled her nose, and stuck her tongue out- quite unaware that anyone was paying her any mind. Her brothers shared the strange 'sight' she had though they rarely mentioned them to one another. She'd spotted one of them blanking out on occassion. She quietly wondered what they saw... but then again, she wasn't overly eager to share the things that appeared in the shimmering sunlight either.
Maybe she could make them form something that she wanted to see. Gently, she laid her paw on the surface of the water, sending shimmering ripples out from her pad out to the small bank of the puddle.
She froze and slowly rolled her ear around. Someone was watching...she felt the weight of a curious stare. Sitting upright, splashing her paw down into the water, and sucking her tongue back up into her mouth, she turned around to face the...young male!
"Oh!" She dipped her head, remembering her manners. "Hi! Oh...uh...he-hello?"

He wonder what she'd been staring at, glancing past her and into the rippling puddle, but he saw only the water itself, nothing in it.
Curious, he looked to her once more before giving a grin, and bowing his head in greeting, not many males bowed to females in this pride, but he felt..something was different about her, that she was almost his equal on some level.
"Good day Miss.." He replied, lifting his head, his mother spent hours teaching him manners, some stuck, others seemed to be repeated lessons.
He wondered what group she had come from, so many lived within these lands it was hard to keep track of who, belonged to who sometimes, specially among the cubs.
