The red moon was rising, and the air was heavy with the smell of blood and sweet flowers. )
Odd. Who didn't know what a house cat was? They were tame pets, owned by humans. Not to mention they were resourceful and clever sources of information if you got hold of one that wasn't cryptic and bored. However, the lion took a step closer. And to this, Tsume neither took up the offense, nor backed off, knowing that holding one's ground was always key when dealing with any sort of apex predator.
His ears twitched as the sensitive ears picked up that small displacement of air, that low growl. They laid back momentarily, but returned to their upright position, trained on him once the big cat. As usual though, to the world of humans, he merely stared quietly at the maned beast the entire time with a casual nonchalance, as though it barely registered that he was talking to an animal. An animal that could tear any human to pieces if the urge struck, but as Kovu drew a bit nearer, the humans cleared out, a feeling he rather enjoyed. If he'd come from any other world, he would trounce around with his fur and fangs on display all day, but he was used to humans killing that which they feared without second thought.
Don't worry, you weren't the only one that didn't feel like they belonged. "A lion, eh?" He tilted his head a bit, his human chin cocking upwards at an angle as the canine's would merely turn a bit to one side. "Can't say I've ever heard of those." His voice took on an airy quality at first, as if searching his memories for the word. When he stated nothing came up, that distant tone of voice had disappeared again.
"Can't say I agreed to taking turns, either, but I've got one more for you, kitten. You can talk like us, so why don't you just blend in like the rest of us?" Human lips curled into a wile grin, as did the ashen canine's with a huff of a mocking laugh. "Unless you're some self-righteous prodigy, too." Ah, Kiba. That lucky bastard.
