Lucius stepped daintily through the tall grasses, delicate nose scrunched up in distaste. How… common of him, to be forced to walk through such a filthy place, his so-called escort nothing more then a silent, useless lump of fur. He and his companion, Damon, were heading to the tree ring to meet their den mates, and Damon didn’t even have the courtesy to push the troublesome grass out of the way for him! Didn’t he know that Lucius was far too good to be forced to do such lowly labor?
Damon, on the other hand, was deriving a sadistic pleasure from watching the egotistical Moombi struggle through the grass. Weaving through the grass was no hardship, but that pampered prince rarely stepped outdoors, much less traveled through truly wild lands, so no doubt he was rather unhappy with the whole situation.
One step forward. Stop. Wait. Another step forward. Vanya’s golden eyes were fixed ahead of her as she stalked her prey. What was her prey, you might ask? Why, the fluffy white Moombi that stuck out like a sore thumb. She knew him – they were den mates after all – but rarely wasted her breath talking to the prat. Nevertheless, she did find it rather amusing to ruffle his fur.
“ Grrr!”
A soft growl was Lucius’s only warning when Vanya suddenly leapt on him from behind. Hissing in both fear and anger, his already fluffy white tails bushed up further as he batted at the spotted Moombi with his paws. Pinning him down easily, Vanya gave him a smug smirk before jumping off and swaggering away, leaving Lucius snarling and Damon chuckling.

Saelen tilted her head, her eyes brinking down at the other moombi before her. She was resting in a tree, one of the few around, with fairies of different colors crawling every which way over her. She tilted her head to listen to one of the creatures whispering, before giving a high pitched giggle.
"Hello!" She barked out, hopping from the tree, of course knocking fairies every which way. Her blue wings unfolded, and Saelen glide/flew over the others and to the ground before a rather....plain looking male. "She got you." Saelen laughed, flapping her sky blue feathered limbs. "Wasn't really surprised, the way you were walking and all. What'sa matter? Scared of a snake or something?"

Upon the arrival of a stranger, Lucius immediately regained his composure and set about slicking down his fur. Patting down his bushy tails with deft paws, his jaw clenched slightly at the rather… eccentric looking female’s comments. The wings were pretty, that much he would admit, but the rest of her looked like she had been the victim of an overexcited toddler’s paintbrush.
“ Best to err on the side of caution, lest I pick up some sort of filthy parasite.” Tilting his head up slightly, he peered down his nose at the female. His first impression of her would have been decent, but then she opened her mouth; a pity such beauty was wasted on someone so uncouth.
“ Since you’ve made such a wonderful introduction already, I don’t suppose you’d be willing to spare me your name?”
Damon rolled his eyes at Lucius’s antics and sat back on his haunches. From his position he could see something creeping through the grass and finally recognized it to be Vanya. It would seem that she too was trying to make a “wonderful” introduction by trying to pounce on the fairy-looking Moombi.

Saelen smiled, sitting in a mimic of Lucius's 'sophisticated' way. Fairies, rather ticked off at her antics, landed about her and started making soft whispy noises, of course speaking to her in a rude way that she ignored. "I'm Saelen. Been around here for a while now, surprised anyone's come about. And might I ask your name, Sir? Or shall I just take to nicknaming you PicklePuss?" She giggled softly, her eyes shimmering. "You know, you needn't be so stiff!"
Her eyes flashed slightly, and she stood there for a moment in silence, then spread her wings and took off again into the sky. Once more, fairies were scattered everywhere, and Saelen laughed as she flew circles above the three of them. "Hello there!" She said, waving to Vanya. "Don't think the same trick works twice. Been listening for you, I have."

“ Certainly not! My name is Lucius Malfoy, though I believe that just ‘ Malfoy’ will do. And though I may be stiff, at least I don’t give the impression of… immaturity.”
Lucius said the last world with a slight drawl, making it quite clear that there was another, less kind word that he thought would better describe her.
Vanya recoiled slightly, apparently surprised that she had been heard; after all, she did pride herself on being an excellent huntress. Cocking her head to the side, her golden eyes followed the fairy-moombi as she circled about.
“ You’ve got a good ear.”

"Malfoy..." Saelen said, smiling. "Very nice name, if a bit odd." She nodded, then swooped down to land beside Vanya. "Was listening for you, I was." She said happily. "Very soft paws, and they were moving so quietly in the grass. But you see, when you listen for what is not there, then you can hear what is coming." She nodded, her wings on her back and the pairs on her front paws folding themselves back up to remain out of the moombi's way, so she could walk without difficulty.

Vanya blinked, then blinked again. Tails twitching, she stared at Saelen as if she were a puzzle that needed solving.
“ … Was that supposed to make sense?”
The grass rustled behind Damon, causing his ears to swivel back as he glanced over his shoulder to see what was coming. Nereus emerged from the grass and, giving the gathered Moombi a quick look-over, laid down next to Damon. The grass was still rustling, but this time Candy emerged, nudging along a young blue Moombi that squeaked in protest. Catching sight of the many strangers she crouched down next to the young male, sweeping her tails over him as if to hide him.

Aerin lay hidden among the tall grass. Her companion and den-mate Kirara crouched by her side as her crimson eyes scanned the crowd of Moombi that stood beyond them. Aerin's bushy tail flickered back and forth and her eyes shined with excitement. This was her first venture out to the ring of trees and she was eager to meet some of the other moombi that lived in the area. Aerin had finally convinced Kirara to accompany her on this small adventure of hers. Though Kirara looked less than pleased, she was unwilling to have her den-mate venture out by herself.
Kirara's ears perked as additional members emerged from the grass beyond them.
"Perfect timing!" Aerin nudged with a hushed voice. "Can we join in now?"
"I still don't...." Kirara's voice trailed off as Aerin began to push through the tall grass-- not waiting for her reply. Kirara shook her head slightly before reluctantly following Aerin out of the tall grass and into the open where the other moombi were.

Saelen squeeked happily, darting into the air once again. "Yes yes, indeed! If you listen for that which isnot there, then you can nknow what is there to be seen." She laughed, fluttering over to fly above Lucius. "You see, if you listen for birds, or for the sound of crickets, then realize they are not there, then that means someone is about and on the prowl. You then know that someone is there, and yet is not seen. Get it?"
She laughed again, her wings fluttering quickly and happily before she darted over them all, swooping and gliding past. "Lovely thinking, Lovely indeed!" she nodded, the pack of fairies following closely behind her every whichway she went. A flash of color caught her eye, and Saelen suddenly stopped, looking down at the grass. Her head tilted in through, then she saw it again. A red horn! "Moombi, Moombi!" She screeched happily, diving from the sky toward the two new females that were walking through the tall grass toward the others.

Seibo paused, halfway across the large, grassy feild before he heard it. 'Moombi, Moombi' Someone cad called. But who was it? He turned around, carefully walking towatd the voice that still seemed to be happily chittering away.
Through the grass, he could just make out the shapes of what seemed to be a large group of Moombi. Odd, what was going on here? He smiled though, wandering closer. He liked making friends. Maybe that was what this was all for? He sped up, his excitement getting to him before he was suddenly flying face first into the clearing of trampled down grass, his face landing in the dirt at the feet of someone. "Owww..." he groaned, looking up into the cold, grey eyes of a nearly all white moombi male. "Er...Hi?" He tried, sounding and looking nervous.

Lucius stared at the male that had literally landed at his feet before giving a dainty sniff and turning his attention to the newly arrived females. Damon, who had also looked down to see what had crashed into the little gathering continued to look at the white and brown Moombi with unblinking icy blue eyes.
‘ … Clutz.’
Nereus had since laid down next to Damon, green tails twitching as his eyes lazily took in the new arrivals. He too looked over when the male Moombi made his somewhat spastic entrance, but upon noticing the “welcome” his den mates were offering he decided to speak up.
“ Hi there. That there’s Lucius; given your entrance, I’d avoid talking to him. Next to him is Damon, the spotted girl is Vanya, the pink and blue female is Candy, and the little blue midget is O’ahu.”
Candy glared at Nereus when she heard him call O’ahu a midget and promptly gave him a light whack on his head with one of her tails. Damon at long last stopped staring at the new male before nudging Nereus with one of his paws.
“ Oh yeah, and I’m Nereus.”
Vanya’s attention was torn between the newly arrived females and male. As a huntress she was always alert, always aware, and always on guard until she could prove that the new arrivals were no threat. O’ahu, however, had no such inhibitions, being as young as he was. Pushing himself forward with his back feet – he hadn’t quite mastered crawling yet – he paddled his way towards the new females in order to investigate them.
{{ And behold the chaos of Rping many Moombi! XP }}

(Lol, very true! XD)
Seibo blinked at them all, then kind of backed away from Lucius and Damon, his eyes on the ground sadly. He'd messed up again...And now no one would want to be friends with him...
He blinked at the moombi who was introducing everyone, his voice quivering slightly as he said, "I'm Seibo...." He looked at Lucius again, then crept toward the others who didn't seem to think he was a mennis. "I...I tripped." He explained, smiling slightly. "My ears got in my way..." He added, nodding.

“ Lay ‘em across your back; works for me.”
Vanya, having apparently decided that a clumsy Moombi was not a dangerous Moombi, offered what little advice she could. Being silent and graceful came naturally to her, so she wasn’t certain if what worked or her would work for anyone else.
“ And don’t let them bother you.” She added, nodding towards Damon and Lucius. “ Damon doesn’t really like anyone and Lucius is a pompous git.”
Lucius hissed at that, but a dark glare from Vanya silenced him quickly, even though his fur remained standing on end. Nereus sighed and tossed the spotted female a weary, pleading sort of look.
“ Must you provoke him so? Having to break up your fights is so troublesome.”

Seibo eeped slightly at Lucius's hissing, and backed away slightly. "Yes...L--Let's not fight, please?" he smiled slightly toward the spotted female, Vanya was it?, and nodded. "Um...Thank you for the advice." he added. He'd just have to remember to keep his ears back.
"Um...What is everyone doing here?" He asked, looking between them all curiously.

“ Aw, kill-joy.”
Vanya flicked one of her tails at Nereus, indicating what she meant. Now sick of talking from the edge of the group, she got up and stretched before padding over to Seibo and sitting near him.
“ Doing? Well, my group was trying to meet up for the first time; although we’re technically den mates, this is the first time that we’re all meeting face-to-face.”
Nereus’s blue eyes gazed at Vanya as she spoke, chuckling mentally. So, the spotted girl was interested in the klutz? It was subtle, but he could see the signs. The way she had stretched to show off her body, and how she was leaning slightly towards the male as she spoke. Flirtation; he had never thought that to be something Vanya would do.
