Well...this was interesting. Among all the fake scents of this world, it was rare for Kovu to find someone who actually smelled like flesh and blood. It took a few minutes to track it to its source, about all he could tell before seeing the guy was the fact he was male, and he was canine. Not much past that, he'd never smelled an animal like this one before. But there was a lot of blood, too...like that was surprising for a predator ( ... )

[[ c: Oh thank god almighty, I was starting to worry no one would be able to post to Tsume cause of where he was placed. xD But yeah, Kovu is another animal, so he can see Tsume for what he really is. Any animal can see him for what he really is, and it seems that in the anime, animals that are smart enough(cats, other wolves), can choose to see the illusion, or as a wolf. c: ]]

His attention perked as something actually registered with some kind of scent. True, he could smell the water and grass, but the air was still..hollow. It reminded him of Jagura's domain..the air was stagnant, empty, as though it were far too sterile. And the people here behaved much the same, but he'd be damned before he accepted being damned to a knock-off of that loony bin ( ... )

[ooc: One other note, we always do logs with replies to the main post, instead of doing them in comment threads.]

"A house cat?" Kovu couldn't say he had any clue what the heck that was supposed to be. He gave the canine a weird look, emphasized by the fact he was so much bigger. "What's...that mean?"

He took a few steps closer to the other animal to get a closer look, and to get all the people to go around him, instead of reminding him so unmistakably that he didn't belong here. The thought made him growl softly as he looked down at the ground away from the canine, but when he looked back any trace of the upset was gone. He could tell from this distance that the guy wasn't exactly the most relaxed in the world, but then...canines usually weren't unless their pack was around. Even then, being in a place this weird should put anyone on edge. Kovu wasn't worried about something so much smaller than him anyway. The shadow creatures were probably far more of a threat.

[[ We do? Huh. So that's what that meant..I remember reading something like that in the rules, but couldn't make sense of it. But, makes sense that you wouldn't want a bunch of little expand menus popping up everywhere. Albeit...aside from regularly checking back, how would anyone but the author be able to know when posts were made? I know on Gaia there were notifications whenever anyoneone posted a journal or in the club message boards as long as they were subscribed, and Yahoo's obvious, even forums send notification PMS. o _o; Regularly checking back's the only way? ]]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 ( ... )

"Blend in?" Kovu took a second. "...I wish." In truth, there was nothing he would have loved more than to just 'blend in.' If he could have, anyway. The thoughts were plain on his face. Mostly, it was loneliness. But there was some scorn, too.

"And I'm no prodigy..." He figured that the self-righteous part would be disproved quickly enough, so he didn't bother to comment on that. "At least...I don't want to be." Scar. The very thought brought a snarl, even though he tried to keep it in check.

[[ Oh, ho, ho. I see. How very convenient. You're such a help. c: -Cheek pinkch.- ]]

"You don't say." Well then. Guess that little trick only applied to the harbingers of paradise, not just any endangered species with the willpower to survive in that dying world. He had to wonder for a second what else he'd bump into in this odd place, though.

Tsume stared the lion down, showing little emotion on his face after the initial confusion. He was a wolf, it wasn't like a wolf to concern itself with the plight of those not within the pack. He wasn't like the runt, defending the need to help all of those around him, that stupid kid. See where it got him? Hmph.. He mulled over the thought, a pang of..well...too much nagging at him. Thus the thought was dismissed, full attention returning to the feline as he heard the snarl again ( ... )
