He shook his head as he neared Pride Rock, his black mane moving around in the wind. He entered the den and was greeted by a series of cat calls by the lioness’ in his pride. He gave them a fake smile and stalked toward the back of the den. “Abioye” a voice sounded from the back. “Father, Kiyo” Abioye dipped his head as he returned the formal greeting. Then all of a sudden, Abioye was knocked to the ground. A barrage of tiny feet and claws kneaded his side as his seven younger sisters tackled him. “ABIOYE! ABIOYE! ABIOYE!!” They all shouted in joy. Laughing with a warm heart, Abioye greeted them all by name. “Amara! Playo! Kima! Syra! Pyri! Mila! Liya!” @Saturnalia @Rosemew

Bituin flicked her ears at the cubs smiling softly she looked at Kiyo and folded her ears back , she missed Moto and wondered where he was . She considered him a childhood friend but ....kiyo....was different she loved him h
Yes but it wasn't the same.....he was more of a stranger than anything . She looked at her daughter's and stood up from where she was "alright alright all of you . Come now leave your brother alone I'm sure he doesn't like your rough housing " she said as she pulled amara off of him gently . She looked at the others "why don't you go bother your father instead?" she asked before looking at Abiyoe "Abiyoe come here please " she said calmly .

He has amber eyes, with a darker hue near the pupil. His mane is normal, a bit shaggy and scruffy. It's a charcoal black color. His build isn't so muscular, and is a bit on the leaner side. Personality: Deirdre is a pretty bitter lion, though he can be nice. He's usually found laying under a shady tree, or on a rock. He's easily annoyed, and doesn't like being seen being am that friendly. When he talks, he's mostly sarcastic and acts like he cares though he doesn't.

@Hedgehogs @Rosemew
Bituin blinked with as her eyes grew worrisome at the thought that abiyoe will say something he will regret and looked at kiyo "that's not how I wanted this to turn out kiyo. Do you always have to be so......assertive ? ....he needs gentle guidance .....not harsh shoves into a role he doesn't want right now! " she said ending it with a more firm of a tone . She really missed moto now , after she said that she sighed and looked at her paws "Moto wouldn't be like that " she said freely with no shame . She glanced at Deirdre and gave him a dip of her head in greeting "greetings Deirdre is there anything you need?" she asked .

(When should I bring djimon in?)

I should not be harsh with him but my days are ending. I can feel it in my bones Bituin.” Kiyo sighed. (Right about now) Abioye left the den and ran into the savannah. He reached the edge of the Pridelands and looked onto the barren landscape before him. Feeling a certain defiance he slowly walked down the slope, despite the fact that crocodiles lay sleeping in the water beneath him.

Bituin looked at kiyo with a shine in her eyes as the weight in her stomach lifted , she understood but to her....some of what he did was unneeded , she nodded "I know.....I know ...I just...don't want him to grow up too fast . And with the horrors out there .....kiyo....what if ...what if someone tries to kill him or something? And we aren't there ? People like my mother are out there! Even though I loved my mother she had that potential ....or so it seemed.. " she fretted .

(^-^)

Djimon a lean and slender she lion covered with battle scars had been sitting on the far side of the slope where there was no water , she was currently enjoying the scenery of the sun and vast landscape before she had to do who ever dirty work. Her Heather colored eyes shined as a ray of sunlight beamed down at her before she looked at the water , however she caught a glimpse of the silhouette of abiyoe making her raise her eyebrow . What could the Prince be doing out here? She hummed in interest interesting .....deciding to be brave eh?

@Hedgehogs @Rosemew
( sassy boi I sense ?)

Bituin purred as a smile followed before she nuzzled back ,she looked at Deirdre afterwards with a raised eyebrow and flicked her tail "very well....is that an attitude I hear?" she asked with a flick of an right ear and a smirk to follow . Being playful of course . She can play that game too.

Djimon cracked a tiny smile of amusement by the princess actions before deciding to follow him , with that she stood up and walked at her own pace towards him all the while managing to be as silent as a ghost. She stalked through what grass there was , keeping low as to not to disturb the great future king. Future king....hmm....surely no one stronger ? He seems like a warm up compared to the others I've seen.

@Hedgehogs @Rosemew
Bituin shrugged "if you say so Deirdre. But I've been wondering , since I think it'll help out kiyo. Would you mind to try and convince abiyoe that being king wouldn't be so bad? To try and steer him into that direction?" she asked her tone full of hope .

_______
Djimon s eyes lit up as she saw what the Prince was doing , she decided to make herself known and swiftly but silently she trotted forward to the elephant skull , she made it behind one of its bones before she peered her head around the corner and sat down so where he could see her "remembering the good times hmm?" she asked her tone laced with a thick French accent .

@Spikey Bean @Rosemew
Bituin blinked gratefully as feeling as if weight has been lifted up off of her shoulders ."I don't know how else to thank you but , thank you!" she said with a shine in her eyes .

Djimon padded up casually and looked at the drawings Abiyoe made and hummed "very creative . I wish I could do something like this. But alas, I have too much work on my paws. " she said before standing beside abiyoe calmly and looked at him "what's a Prince doing out here all by himself? I thought you'd be basking in the glory that comes with it. Or am I missing something ?" she asked .

@Rosemew @Spikey Bean

Djimon smirked , fully interested in this one . Although she tilted her head "oh? Well wake up little man, life isn't all what it's made out to be. Sometimes we just have to accept the role that's given to us and smile . " she replied her tone dark. Although her ears perked up out of hearing the other lion, her orbs landed on Deirdre with an raised eyebrow . She sensed something between them. Rivalry perhaps? Or just plain enemies? But she growled at seeing abiyoe stand infront of her , she didn't need protecting ,she wasn't those fragile lionesesses in the pride , if she wasn't then she wouldn't have the scars she has now. She unsheathed her claws and walked away from abiyoe and stood beside him "did I ask for protection ? I can take care of myself ." she snapped before glaring at Deirdre "and since when is that a bad thing?" she asked .
